Description: VUG Vanguard Growth Shares December 01, 2025
The Vanguard Growth Index Fund ETF (NYSE ARCA: VUG) seeks to mirror the performance of a broad U.S. large-cap growth index by holding, in roughly the same weightings, the constituent stocks that make up that index. The fund’s indexing strategy means it invests virtually all of its assets in the underlying equities, minimizing tracking error relative to the benchmark.
Key data points (as of Q3 2024): the fund’s expense ratio is 0.04 %, well below the industry average for actively managed large-growth funds; its assets under management exceed $90 billion, reflecting strong investor demand for low-cost growth exposure. The top sector allocations are technology (~45 % of assets), consumer discretionary (~20 %), and health care (~15 %), making the ETF sensitive to macro drivers such as corporate earnings growth, Fed policy on interest rates, and consumer spending trends.
If you want a deeper, data-driven view of VUG’s risk-return profile and how it fits into a diversified portfolio, the ValueRay platform offers granular analytics that can help you assess the fund’s suitability for your objectives.
