Vanguard ETFs® by style box

Vanguard uses a nine-box grid called a style box to show how our domestic stock fund ETF holdings are distributed by primary investment style (growth, value, or blend) and market segment (large-, mid-, and small-cap companies).

Knowing a fund's investment style can help you understand how it might fit in your portfolio. This information can also help you build a portfolio that's broadly diversified across markets and less susceptible to sharp swings in any one market area.

In addition to our lineup of domestic stock and bond Vanguard ETFs, Vanguard offers sector-specific Vanguard ETFs and international Vanguard ETFs. Style boxes are not applicable to these ETFs.
