Description: VOX Communication Shares

The Vanguard Communication Services Index Fund ETF (VOX) employs a passive indexing strategy designed to track the performance of an index composed of large-, mid-, and small-cap U.S. companies classified within the communication services sector under the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS). The fund seeks full replication of the index by holding each constituent stock in approximately the same weight as in the benchmark. The fund is structured as non-diversified, meaning it may hold a more concentrated position in fewer issuers relative to diversified funds.

The GICS communication services sector was established in 2016 through a reclassification that absorbed several internet, media, and entertainment companies from the previously separate consumer discretionary and information technology sectors. The sector generally encompasses telecommunications carriers, cable and satellite providers, publishing and broadcasting firms, movie and entertainment companies, and interactive media and online platform operators. As an ETF launched in 2004, VOX provides investors with targeted exposure to this industry group through a single, exchange-traded vehicle.
