Vanguards total stock market index fund (VTI) asset allocation breakdown U.S. 2023
Almost one-third of the total assets managed by Vanguard's total stock market index fund traded under the ticket symbol VTI was allocated to technology stocks. Consumer discretionary stocks accounted for the second largest portion of assets. The asset allocation of the total stock market index fund was comparable to that of the asset allocation of the S&P 500 index. The S&P 500 is often quoted as a barometer of U.S. market performance. However, as the S&P 500 tracks 500 of the largest U.S. companies, it is not inclusive of the performance of small and mid-cap companies. Investors can buy into the total stock market index fund (VTI), for wider market exposure.
