Vanguard's bonus ETF exceeded ETF by 8 percentage points

Vanguard's share of the ETF (VIG) exceeded its growth of ETF (VUG) by 8 percentage points in 2026, the first time in 10 years that the share exceeded net growth investment. VUG's poor performance this year was mainly affected by the shrinking valuation of long-term growth equities, in particular its staggered technology unit. Investors should consider discontinuing additional investments to VUG and redirecting new funds to VYM or general market funds in order to rebalance assets. The performance of VUG this year is at odds with the expectations of most holders, with VUG now rising by about 10 per cent at the beginning of the year, while VIG rising by about 12 per cent。
