The Vanguard Consumer Staples Index Fund ETF (VDC) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that tracks a consumer staples index composed of large, mid-size, and small U.S. companies classified under the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS). The fund seeks to replicate its benchmark by holding all or substantially all of the indexs constituent stocks in approximately the same proportions as their index weightings.
Although the fund holds a broad range of consumer staples issuers across market capitalizations, it is classified as non-diversified, meaning a relatively concentrated portion of its assets may be invested in individual securities or sectors. The ETF is listed on the NYSE and falls within the consumer defensive category, reflecting the traditionally stable, demand-resistant nature of the consumer staples sector.
