📎 Investment Objective

The Vanguard Small-Cap Growth ETF seeks to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the investment return of small-capitalization growth stocks.

🎯 Investment Strategy

  • Suitable for investors seeking long-term capital appreciation

⚠️ Primary Risks

  • Susceptibility to market volatility and economic conditions affecting small-cap companies
  • Potential for higher risk and volatility compared to large-cap or broader market indexes
  • Concentration risk as the fund is focused on the small-cap growth segment
  • Liquidity risk due to the relatively smaller size and trading volume of small-cap stocks

👤 Best For

The Vanguard Small-Cap Growth ETF may be suitable for long-term investors with a higher risk tolerance who are seeking exposure to the growth potential of small-cap U.S. equities as part of a diversified portfolio.
