Vanguard’s Tech ETF Turns $10,000 into $82,000 Since 2015
Technology stocks have dominated market gains over the past decade, with Vanguard's Information Technology ETF (VGT) emerging as its top performer. A $10,000 investment in 2015 WOULD now be worth over $82,000, underscoring the sector's explosive growth.
The ETF tracks the MSCI US Investable Market Information Technology 25/50 Index, maintaining diversification through strict weighting rules. Despite holding over 300 stocks, the fund remains top-heavy—Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia collectively account for 44% of its portfolio.
This concentration reflects the winner-takes-all dynamics of tech investing, where megacaps continue to outpace smaller competitors. The ETF's passive strategy has proven particularly effective in a sector where innovation compounds returns.
