SPYGAState Street SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 Growth ETF

In short

BKLG No data

SPYG The growth half of the S&P 500 for 0.04% a year, running since 2000. No exotic screen, no reinvention: just the index's fastest-growing names, in the cheapest wrapper tracking that index.

Stated mandate

BKLG No data

SPYG The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the total return of the S&P 500 Growth Index. It provides exposure to S&P 500 companies selected for strong growth characteristics.

Why people hold it

BKLG No data

SPYG Costs 0.04% a year, well under the typical fee in the US growth-ETF group.
The cheapest way to buy the S&P 500 Growth Index: VOOG follows the same benchmark at 0.07%.
Has tracked its index tightly, one of the strongest implementations among growth funds we grade.
Trading since 2000, now a multi-billion-dollar fund that changes hands actively, so spreads stay thin. Pays quarterly.

Worth knowing

BKLG No data

SPYG About 150 stocks, not 500. You get the growth slice, which means heavier single-name and sector concentration than the full index.
The index screens on growth and momentum, so rebalances lean into names that have already run and the ride is bumpier than the broad market.
Large-cap US only. No small caps, no international, no bonds.
