Fund Details
Investment Thesis
SCHG has become the value-shopper's growth fund: materially cheaper than IVW (0.18%) and VUG (0.04% ties it) while holding the same mega-cap growth engine. Its top ten are the familiar AI-cycle names at over 55% of assets, so it carries the same concentration risk as every fund in the category — that is the nature of cap-weighted growth investing in this era, not a flaw unique to SCHG.
Who It's For
Cost-focused growth investors and anyone pairing a growth sleeve against a value fund. Long horizons and drawdown tolerance required; 2022's -30% category loss will repeat someday.
