(VCR) Vanguard Consumer Discretionary ETF

About this fund

Fund objectives

Vanguard Consumer Discretionary ETF seeks to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the investment return of consumer discretionary stocks.

Why this fund

  • Seeks to track the performance of the MSCI US Investable Market Consumer Discretionary 25/50 Index.
  • Multicapitalization equity in the consumer discretionary sector.
  • Employs a passively managed, full-replication strategy when possible.
  • If regulatory constraints prevent full replication, the fund uses a sampling strategy to approximate the index’s key characteristics.
  • The fund remains fully invested.
  • Low expenses minimize net tracking error.
