Investment Thesis

IWF tracks the Russell 1000 Growth Index, providing broader US growth exposure than pure Nasdaq-100 funds by including mid-cap growth companies and sectors like healthcare and consumer discretionary alongside technology. With 500+ holdings, IWF avoids the concentrated top-heavy nature of QQQ while capturing fundamental growth characteristics across the US large and mid-cap universe.

Who It's For

Investors seeking broad US growth exposure beyond pure technology without the concentration risk of QQQ. IWF suits those building a growth-tilt in their portfolio while maintaining meaningful diversification across sectors. A natural pairing with a value-oriented fund like VYM or SCHD for investors who want to express both growth and value factors simultaneously.
