Went more short term for Macon Rd at Vanguard

Today I decided that Macon rd partners has too much invested in the Vnaguard Intermediate term bond fund VFIDX and I sold $500,000 of that fund and bought the following:


$250,000 --- VMMXX Prime money market fund
$250,000 --- VFSUX short term investment grade bond fund

The average bond maturity for the intermediate fund is 6.9 years.  The average maturity for short term fund is 3.1 years.  I think interest rates may rise and so I wanted a shorter maturity.  I am apparently now restricted from selling any more of the Intermediate fund until 7-Dec-2010.
