IVOGAVanguard S&P Mid-Cap 400 Growth ETF

VOOVAVanguard S&P 500 Value ETF

In short

IVOG The growth half of the S&P MidCap 400, wrapped by Vanguard for a tenth of a percent. About 240 medium-size US companies chosen by a published growth screen, in a plain index fund priced well under the typical index wrapper.

VOOV Vanguard takes the S&P 500, sorts it by value traits, and hands you the cheap half: roughly 400 familiar large caps, one published index, seven basis points. A value tilt without leaving the blue-chip universe.

Stated mandate

IVOG The fund seeks to track the S&P MidCap 400 Growth Index, which represents medium-size U.S. growth companies.

VOOV The fund seeks to track the performance of the S&P 500 Value Index.

Why people hold it

  • IVOG 0.10% a year against a 0.45% median for index-wrapper peers. Fee is the one input you actually control, and this one stays small.
  • Fills the mid-cap gap most portfolios skip: roughly 240 medium-size US companies sorted by S&P's growth and momentum screen, not a manager's hunch.vanguard.com
  • Trading since 2010, and built as an ETF share class of Vanguard's S&P Mid-Cap 400 Growth Index Fund, so the ETF and the mutual fund run off one portfolio.vanguard.com
  • One of the tightest label-to-portfolio matches among the index wrappers we track: it holds the index it advertises, with no side quests.
  • VOOV Charges 0.07% a year against a 0.45% median for its index-tracker peer group. The value tilt arrives without the usual factor-fund markup.
  • No manager discretion. It follows one published benchmark, the S&P 500 Value Index, holding roughly 400 large-cap names most investors already know.vanguard.com
  • Running since 2010 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it sits among the strongest implementations in its peer group of plain index wrappers.

Worth knowing

  • IVOG Thinly traded next to the big broad-market names, so bid/ask spreads can be wider and order type matters more.
  • Mid-cap growth moves harder than the total market in both directions. This is one slice of US equity, not a whole-market holding.
  • Income is an afterthought here: distributions land once or twice a year, not quarterly.
  • VOOV SPYV tracks the same S&P 500 Value Index for 0.04%. Same benchmark, thinner fee.
  • You own one side of the index. When the growth half of the S&P 500 leads, this fund's path diverges from the headline benchmark.
  • Volume is moderate rather than heavy, so spreads can run wider than the busiest large-cap ETFs. Cash comes back quarterly, not monthly.
