For investors seeking momentum, Russell 1000 Growth ETF VONG is probably on the radar. The fund just hit a 52-week high and is up 48% from its 52-week low of $65.85 per share.
Vanguard offers four ETFs that have generated year-to-date returns of over 20%. These ETFs all focus on growth stocks and have low annual expense ratios.
The Vanguard Russell 1000 Growth ETF (VONG) was launched on 09/22/2010, and is a passively managed exchange traded fund designed to offer broad exposure to the Large Cap Growth segment of the US equity market.
Large-cap growth stocks have reasserted themselves in Q2, with the MAGS ETF and Nasdaq 100 reaching all-time highs. I have a buy rating on the Vanguard Russell 1000 Growth Index due to a reasonable valuation given EPS growth trends and its strong momentum. Amid bullish seasonal trends, I highlight key price levels to watch on the chart.
