The Fund employs an indexing investment approach designed to track the performance of the CRSP US Large Cap Growth Index (the Index), a broadly diversified index predominantly made up of growth stocks of large U.S. companies. The Fund attempts to replicate the target index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets in the stocks that make up the Index, holding each stock in approximately the same proportion as its weighting in the Index. The Fund may become non-diversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, solely as a result of a change in relative market capitalization or index weighting of one or more constituents of the Index.

Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF(NYSE:VOO)가 올해 연간 유입액 1,000억 달러를 돌파하며 모든 ETF 역사상 가장 높은 수치를 기록했다. ETF.com의 데이터에 따르면, 이 펀드는 투자자들로부터 1,010억 7천만 달러의 신규 자금을 유치했으며, 이는 두 번째로 가까운 경쟁자인 iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF(NYSE:IVV)의 592억 달러와 SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust(NYSE:SPY)의 229억 달러를 합친 것보다도 많다.

탄탄한 수익 성장, 높은 가치 평가, 강력한 혁신 잠재력을 특징으로 하는 성장 주식에 초점을 맞춘 상장지수펀드(ETF)는 6월에 자금 유입이 증가했다. 성장연계 펀드에 대한 관심의 급증은 기술 부문에 대한 투자자의 신뢰 증가와 인공 지능과 같은 파괴적인 혁신을 반영하여 가치주에 비해 성장주의 상당한 성과와 일치했다.

기술, AI로 성장 ETF로 6월 122억 달러 유입, 가치 ETF 대비 기록적인 성과 달성

The Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VOO#NYSE">VOO</a>) has shattered records, crossing $100 billion in annual inflows this year, a historic high for any ETF over the same period. 
Data from ETF.com shows that the fund witnessed $101.07 billion in fresh money from investors, more than the combined inflows of its two closest competitors: iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVV#NYSE">IVV</a>) with $59.2 billion and SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) with just $22.9 billion.&nbsp;
In the multi-trillion-dollar exchange-traded fund industry, this trend is sparking debate over whether SPY, the world's largest ETF, is now on the brink of losing its long-standing crown.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">$VOO Poised To Become The World&#8217;s Largest ETF Next Year </h3>
Despite SPY still holding the title of the world's largest ETF, with $620 billion in assets under management (AUM), the gap between it and VOO — currently at $579 billion — has narrowed to $41 billion.
&#8220;That means that there is a very real possibility that VOO overtakes SPY as the world's largest ETF as soon as next year,&#8221; commented Sumit Roy, senior analyst at ETF.com. 
&#8220;But even if that happens, SPY's slide down the ETF leaderboard might not stop there. IVV is also nipping at its heels, with $565 billion in AUM,&#8221; he added.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Expense Ratio: A Critical Factor For VOO&#8217;s Institutional Inflows</h3>
A key driver of VOO's success is its rock-bottom expense ratio of 0.03%, less than a third of SPY's 0.0945%. 
These differences have significant implications, especially for institutional investors managing billions.
A retail investor putting $5,000 into VOO at the start of the year would pay only $1.50 in annual expenses, while the same investment in SPY would cost $4.73 – basically an irrelevant difference. 
In sharp contrast, an institutional investor allocating $5 billion to VOO would pay just $1.5 million in fees, compared to $4.73 million with SPY—a staggering $3.23 million difference.
This simple example may explain that expense ratio differences are a huge driver of wholesale <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">investor flows into ETFs</a>.

Vanguard's S&P 500 ETF Hits $100 Billion Inflows In 2024: Is SPY's Crown At Risk?

Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) noted vast opportunities in AI-driven businesses across Asia, especially in multilingual India, Vice President of Worldwide Field Operations Masataka Osaki <a target="_blank" href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Editor-s-Picks/Interview/Nvidia-sees-potential-of-AI-in-multilingual-India-other-Asian-nations" rel="noreferrer noopener">told</a> Nikkei Asia on Monday.
Osaki flagged Asian countries&#8217; diverse languages and cultures, producing immense data that can be transformed into AI tailored for each region, during an interview at the Global Management Dialogue, a forum organized by Nikkei and Swiss business school IMD.
He added that AI-powered data analytics would enhance manufacturing, logistics, and retail efficiency.

Nvidia is also working with Reliance to develop a 1-gigawatt AI infrastructure center in Gujarat, leveraging India&#8217;s vast IT ecosystem to support next-gen applications.
Additionally, Nvidia is scaling data center capacity with Yotta Data Services and Tata Communications, increasing its GPU deployment in India almost tenfold within 18 months to meet growing demands across industries.
Nvidia&#8217;s move reflects its geographical diversification as the U.S. aggressively enforces its semiconductor technology embargo against countries like China.
On Friday, Nvidia briefly overtook Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) to become the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41551461/nvidia-overtakes-apple-as-worlds-most-valuable-company-again" rel="noreferrer noopener">world&#8217;s most valuable company</a>. Nvidia&#8217;s market cap reached $3.53 trillion, surpassing Apple&#8217;s $3.52 trillion.
The shift reflects Nvidia&#8217;s stock surge, fueled by record demand for AI supercomputing chips. Russ Mould, investment director at AJ Bell, noted that as more companies adopt AI in daily operations, demand for Nvidia chips stays robust.
According to Bank of America analyst Vivek Arya, Nvidia will be a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41553696/ahead-of-q3-earnings-bank-of-america-names-beneficiaries-of-surge-in-hyperscale-spending" rel="noreferrer noopener">crucial beneficiary of</a> the tech giant&#8217;s artificial intelligence spending in 2025.

Disney's Leadership Shift: James Gorman Named As Chairman, CEO Search Underway

Monday, Super Micro Computer, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) stock gained after it announced a complete liquid cooling solution that includes powerful Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs), cold plates, Coolant Distribution Manifolds (CDMs), cooling towers, and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/n41206584/supermicro-solidifies-position-as-a-leader-in-complete-rack-scale-liquid-cooling-solutions-current" rel="noreferrer noopener">end-to-end management software</a>.
Supermicro said it recently deployed over 100,000 GPUs with liquid cooling solution (DLC) for some of the largest AI factories ever built, as well as other Cloud Service Providers (CSPs).
Supermicro&#8217;s ultra-dense server with dual top-bin CPUs and 8 Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) HGX GPUs in just 4U with liquid cooling quadruples the computing density, allowing organizations to run larger training models with a smaller data center footprint.

This complete solution reduces ongoing power costs, Day 0 hardware acquisition, and data center cooling infrastructure costs.
However, Supermicro stock has been under pressure since the U.S. Department of Justice started probing the company following an <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41052423/super-micro-computer-stock-falls-on-report-of-doj-probe-what-to-know" rel="noreferrer noopener">August&nbsp;short report</a> from Hindenburg Research.
The short report highlighted allegations by former employee Bob Luong over the AI server company&#8217;s inappropriate revenue recognition policies and the re-hiring of employees the company had terminated due to involvement with past accounting violations.
Supermicro had inked a settlement with the SEC in 2020, paying $17.5 million without admitting or denying the accusations.&nbsp;
Needham analyst Quinn Bolton flagged Supermicro, a first mover in rack-level liquid cooling solutions, with its liquid cooling as an opportunity for further <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40926422/super-micro-poised-for-expansion-as-gross-margin-concerns-ease-internal-control-risks-priced-in-anal" rel="noreferrer noopener">market share expansion</a>.
Bolton noted that the stock has priced in most of the risk associated with the&nbsp;board&#8217;s review of internal controls following the short report.
Supermicro stock is up 61% in the last 12 months. Investors can gain exposure to the stock through Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>) and Invesco S&amp;P 500 Equal Weight ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RSP#NYSE">RSP</a>).

T-Mobile To Raise $2.5B Via Debt For Buybacks and Growth

The Invesco Russell 1000 Dynamic Multifactor ETF (BATS: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/omfl#BATS">OMFL</a>) was launched on 11/08/2017, and is a passively managed exchange traded fund designed to offer broad exposure to the Large Cap Growth segment of the US equity market.
The fund is sponsored by Invesco. It has amassed assets over $5.28 billion, making it one of the larger ETFs attempting to match the Large Cap Growth segment of the US equity market.
<h2>Why Large Cap Growth</h2>
Companies that find themselves in the large cap category typically have a market capitalization above $10 billion. They tend to be stable companies with predictable cash flows and are usually less volatile than mid and small cap companies.
Qualities of growth stocks include faster growth rates compared to the broader market, as well as higher valuations and higher than average sales and earnings growth rates. Something to keep in mind is the higher level of volatility that is affiliated with growth stocks. When you consider growth versus value, growth stocks are usually the clear winner in strong bull markets but tend to fall flat in nearly all other environments.
<h2>Costs</h2>
Expense ratios are an important factor in the return of an ETF and in the long term, cheaper funds can significantly outperform their more expensive counterparts, other things remaining the same.
Annual operating expenses for this ETF are 0.29%, putting it on par with most peer products in the space.
It has a 12-month trailing dividend yield of 1.57%.
<h2>Sector Exposure and Top Holdings</h2>
Even though ETFs offer diversified exposure that minimizes single stock risk, investors should also look at the actual holdings inside the fund. Luckily, most ETFs are very transparent products that disclose their holdings on a daily basis.
This ETF has heaviest allocation to the Information Technology sector--about 26.30% of the portfolio. Financials and Healthcare round out the top three.
Looking at individual holdings, Berkshire Hathaway Inc accounts for about 5.30% of total assets, followed by Costco Wholesale Corp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cost#NASDAQ">COST</a>) and Meta Platforms Inc.
The top 10 holdings account for about 41.11% of total assets under management.
<h2>Performance and Risk</h2>
OMFL seeks to match the performance of the RUSSELL 1000 INVESCO DYNAMIC MLTIFCTR ID before fees and expenses. The Russell 1000 Invesco Dynamic Multifactor Index is constructed using a rules-based methodology by selecting equity securities from the Russell 1000 Index, which measures the performance of the 1,000 largest-capitalization companies in the United States.
The ETF has added about 0.46% so far this year and is up about 5.06% in the last one year (as of 09/04/2024). In the past 52-week period, it has traded between $43.21 and $55.23.
The ETF has a beta of 1.01 and standard deviation of 17.55% for the trailing three-year period. With about 249 holdings, it effectively diversifies company-specific risk.
<h2>Alternatives</h2>
Invesco Russell 1000 Dynamic Multifactor ETF carries a Zacks ETF Rank of 3 (Hold), which is based on expected asset class return, expense ratio, and momentum, among other factors. Thus, OMFL is a sufficient option for those seeking exposure to the Style Box - Large Cap Growth area of the market. Investors might also want to consider some other ETF options in the space.
The Vanguard Growth ETF (ARCA:VUG) and the Invesco QQQ (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) track a similar index. While Vanguard Growth ETF has $131.14 billion in assets, Invesco QQQ has $279.37 billion. VUG has an expense ratio of 0.04% and QQQ charges 0.20%.
<h2>Bottom-Line</h2>
An increasingly popular option among retail and institutional investors, passively managed ETFs offer low costs, transparency, flexibility, and tax efficiency; they are also excellent vehicles for long term investors.

What Happened: With President Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 election, Harris is the favorite to secure the Democratic Party nomination and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39892716/nancy-pelosi-endorses-kamala-harris-for-president-full-confidence-that-she-will-lead-us-to-victo">has received endorsements</a> from many people, including Pelosi.
While they are both Democrats and key political figures, Harris and Pelosi differ when it comes to investing.
Pelosi and her venture capitalist husband Paul Pelosi prefer to buy individual stocks and options, often in the technology sector. Compare that to the investment style of Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff, who have their money parked in mutual funds and ETFs.
Benzinga recently polled readers to see which investment style could be better.
"Kamala Harris' investments include mutual funds and S&amp;P 500 holdings, while Nancy Pelosi and her husband have purchased stocks like Nvidia, Apple and Tesla. Who do you think is a better investor?" Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>Kamala Harris: 34%</li>
<li>Nancy Pelosi: 66%</li>
</ul>
The<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/gov-trades/members/nancy-pelosi"> Benzinga Government trades page</a> for Pelosi shows recent purchases of NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Broadcom (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) and Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PANW#NASDAQ">PANW</a>).
According to a report from <a href="https://www.barrons.com/amp/articles/kamala-harris-wealth-investments-12983bda">Barrons</a>, Harris and Emhoff have between $2.9 million and $6.6 million in investments and cash based on financial disclosures. Among the investments include Harris having between $250,000 and $500,000 in a Target Date 2030 fund and between $100,000 and $250,000 in an S&amp;P fund and large-cap growth fund.
Emhoff has investments in several ETFs, including the iShares Core MSCI EAFE ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEFA#BATS">IEFA</a>).
A Quiver Quant <a href="https://www.quiverquant.com/news/Kamala%20Harris%20Net%20Worth">report </a>shows the Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>) and the Vanguard Value ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VTV#NYSE">VTV</a>) as two of the largest holdings by the vice president and first gentleman. The Vanguard Growth ETF is heavily weighting in technology stocks, making up 60% of the ETF. 
One thing the two political figures have in common with their investments is a preference to large cap stocks and not having large weightings of small cap stocks in their portfolios.

Only 1% Of Benzinga Readers Polled Are Buying Fewer Stocks, Here&#8217;s How Many Are Buying More</a>
Why It's Important: The net worth of Harris and Emhoff pales in comparison to her 2024 election opponent Donald Trump, who is a billionaire thanks to his investments and large stake in Trump Media &amp; Technology Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJT#NASDAQ">DJT</a>).
"Does the difference in wealth between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump make her a more or less appealing candidate?" Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>More appealing: 32%</li>
<li>Less appealing: 4%</li>
<li>Makes no difference to me: 64%</li>
</ul>
The poll found that potential voters don't care too much that Trump is worth significantly more than Harris. A larger amount of respondents said Harris is more appealing than less appealing based on her lower wealth amount.
Benzinga also asked if people were surprised by the $2.9 million to $6.6 million figure that is being reported for Harris and her husband's wealth.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>More than I expected: 29%</li>
<li>Less than I expected: 34%</li>
<li>About what I expected: 37%</li>
</ul>
The poll results were close, with the majority of respondents indicating that Harris&#8217;s wealth was in line with their expectations. Additionally, about one-third of the respondents felt that the amount was less than they anticipated.
Disclosures of investments for political figures has been a hot topic in recent years, with calls to ban members of Congress from trading stocks and options. The significant allocation to ETFs and mutual funds indicates that Harris has not been actively buying and trading individual stocks like some members of Congress and their spouses.
Harris and Pelosi may have investment commonalities of preference for technology and large-cap stocks, while both also mostly avoid small-cap stocks.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) has unveiled its latest AI PC architecture, incorporating a new neural processing unit (NPU) in its AMD Ryzen AI chips.
This announcement was made at the Computex trade show in Taiwan last month, followed by a detailed presentation at a recent event in Los Angeles, VentureBeat <a target="_blank" href="https://venturebeat.com/ai/amd-takes-a-deep-dive-into-architecture-for-the-ai-pc-chips/" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

According to Vamsi Boppana, AMD's SVP of AI, the NPUs can operate AI models at 35 times the performance per watt of a standard CPU and eight times that of an integrated GPU.
AMD's AI PCs provide enhanced privacy by containing data within local networks, reducing the need for cloud-based processing.
The latest AMD Ryzen AI chips integrate 16 RDNA 3.5 GPU compute units and 12 Zen CPU cores, and thanks to the XDNA 2 architecture, they offer 50 TOPS.
AMD's XDNA 2 architecture features 32 AI engines and 50 NPU TOPS, which supports various applications, including immersive collaboration, creative editing, gaming, personal AI assistance, and enterprise productivity.
AMD stock gained 52% in the last 12 months, buoyed by <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39772563/whats-going-on-with-ai-stocks-nvidia-amd-on-monday" rel="noreferrer noopener">the AI wave</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is AMD A Good Stock To Buy?</h2>
Wall Street analysts view Advanced Micro Devices on the whole as a Outperform, given the history of coverage over the past three months. Christopher Danely from Citigroup in Advanced Micro Devices is the most optimistic, expecting a 19.32% rise in the stock in the coming year.
But looking at how the market as a whole thinks of the stock, you can reference historical price action for views on whether investors feel strongly about the stock one way or another. In the past 3 months, Advanced Micro Devices rose 12.83%, which indicates that opinion improved on the business and how attractive it is to own based on either its stock price, or underlying fundamentals, like revenue, which rose 2.24% over the past year.

AMD Showcases New AI Capabilities with Ryzen AI Chips: Report

Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) focused on growth equities &#8211; characterized by robust revenue growth, high valuations, and strong potential for innovation – experienced elevated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">inflows in June.</a>
This surge in interest towards growth-linked funds coincided with a significant outperformance of growth over value stocks, reflecting increased investor confidence in the tech sector and disruptive innovations like artificial intelligence.
The eight largest growth-linked ETFs by assets under management (AUM) collectively experienced a substantial $12.2 billion in inflows from the beginning of the month through June 24.
Leading the pack, the Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>) saw the highest monthly inflows among its peers, attracting an impressive $5.68 billion. This remarkable figure is set to mark the Vanguard Growth ETF&#8217;s record monthly inflows, ranking second in June only to the nearly $10 billion attracted by the broader iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVV#NYSE">IVV</a>).

Tech, AI Drive $12.2B Inflows Into Growth ETFs, Marking Record Outperformance Over Value

In a bid to boost the market success of its mixed-reality Vision Pro headset, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has added the two largest online retailers in China to its roster of supported applications.
What Happened: The Vision Pro headset, priced at $3,500, will now be supported by the native apps of Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) and JD.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>), <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-24/apple-adds-alibaba-jd-to-list-of-vision-pro-apps-for-china">reported</a> Bloomberg on Friday. The apps will offer various features such as virtual test drives of Xiaomi cars and makeup simulations.
App support is seen as crucial for the success of Vision Pro, which has had a rocky start in the U.S. with Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) opting out of creating a bespoke app.
The headset, which is set to launch in China, Japan, and Singapore on Jun. 28, has seen a significant sales premium for imported units in overseas markets but has failed to generate significant sales so far.
Apple&nbsp;stock gained nearly 12% in the last 12 months. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>) and&nbsp;Vanguard Information Tech ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGT#NYSE">VGT</a>)

Why It Matters: Apple&#8217;s expansion into the Chinese market with the Vision Pro headset comes amid several challenges. The company has been facing obstacles in its artificial intelligence push in China due to stringent regulations and rising <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39425871/apples-ai-push-encounters-obstacles-in-china-with-stricter-regulations-and-local-co">competition from local firms</a> like Huawei. 
Additionally, Apple has reportedly been struggling to develop a more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39449011/apple-struggling-to-create-its-cheaper-vision-pro-model-says-expert-its-dealing-with-some-difficult">affordable version of the Vision Pro</a>. The high price tag and lack of mainstream appeal have led to a re-evaluation of the Vision Pro&#8217;s roadmap. The company aims to make the headset more accessible by introducing a range of devices with varying price points.
Apple is also in ongoing discussions with several Chinese companies, including Baidu and Alibaba, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/06/39434301/apples-ai-strategy-faces-hurdles-in-china-talks-with-local-firms-are-ongoing">to integrate AI functions</a> into its devices sold in China. This is part of Apple&#8217;s strategy to navigate the complex regulatory environment and enhance its product offerings in the region.

Earlier this year, Apple explored the possibility of obtaining approval for a foreign large language model to be used in its devices in China but found the chances to be slim. This led Apple to intensify talks with potential local partners. The region, including mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau, accounted for 18% of Apple's global revenue in the quarter ended March 30.
Why It Matters: Local companies pose a growing threat to Apple's market position in China. In the first quarter of this year, the iPhone <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/03/37479073/apples-iphone-sales-dip-24-in-china-falls-to-fourth-place-behind-vivo-and-huawei" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">dropped to third place</a> by handset market share among smartphone brands in China, falling behind two local brands, the Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/for-apples-ai-push-china-is-a-missing-piece-7d2b0ec6" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Huawei will likely increase its market share to 17% this year, while Apple's share will drop to 16%.

The company opened a new Apple store in Shanghai, and CEO Tim Cook attended the China Development Forum in Beijing, highlighting the market's significance.

QCOM

What's Going On With Nvidia Stock On Thursday?

The Invesco S&amp;P 500 GARP ETF (ARCA:SPGP) was launched on 06/17/2011, and is a passively managed exchange traded fund designed to offer broad exposure to the Large Cap Growth segment of the US equity market.
The fund is sponsored by Invesco. It has amassed assets over $4.98 billion, making it one of the larger ETFs attempting to match the Large Cap Growth segment of the US equity market.
Why Large Cap Growth
Large cap companies usually have a market capitalization above $10 billion. Considered a more stable option, large cap companies boast more predictable cash flows and are less volatile than their mid and small cap counterparts.
Growth stocks have higher than average sales and earnings growth rates. While these are expected to grow faster than the broader market, they also have higher valuations. Something to keep in mind is the higher level of volatility that is affiliated with growth stocks. Even though growth stocks are more likely to outperform their value counterparts in strong bull markets, value stocks have a record of delivering better returns in almost all markets than growth stocks.
Costs
Expense ratios are an important factor in the return of an ETF and in the long term, cheaper funds can significantly outperform their more expensive counterparts, other things remaining the same.
Annual operating expenses for this ETF are 0.34%, putting it on par with most peer products in the space.
It has a 12-month trailing dividend yield of 1.28%.
Sector Exposure and Top Holdings
While ETFs offer diversified exposure, which minimizes single stock risk, a deep look into a fund&#39;s holdings is a valuable exercise. And, most ETFs are very transparent products that disclose their holdings on a daily basis.
This ETF has heaviest allocation to the Energy sector--about 24.80% of the portfolio. Information Technology and Materials round out the top three.
Looking at individual holdings, Diamondback Energy Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fang#NASDAQ">FANG</a>) accounts for about 2.49% of total assets, followed by Marathon Petroleum Corp (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mpc#NYSE">MPC</a>) and Steel Dynamics Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/stld#NASDAQ">STLD</a>).
The top 10 holdings account for about 20.39% of total assets under management.
Performance and Risk
SPGP seeks to match the performance of the S&amp;P 500 GROWTH AT A REASONABLE PRICE IDX before fees and expenses. The S&amp;P 500 Growth at a Reasonable Price Index is composed of securities with strong growth characteristics selected from the Russell Top 200 Index.
The ETF has added roughly 7.06% so far this year and is up about 24.48% in the last one year (as of 05/20/2024). In the past 52-week period, it has traded between $84.30 and $106.72.
The ETF has a beta of 1.10 and standard deviation of 17.94% for the trailing three-year period. With about 77 holdings, it effectively diversifies company-specific risk.
Alternatives
Invesco S&amp;P 500 GARP ETF carries a Zacks ETF Rank of 3 (Hold), which is based on expected asset class return, expense ratio, and momentum, among other factors. Thus, SPGP is a good option for those seeking exposure to the Style Box - Large Cap Growth area of the market. Investors might also want to consider some other ETF options in the space.
The Vanguard Growth ETF (ARCA:VUG) and the Invesco QQQ (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) track a similar index. While Vanguard Growth ETF has $123.57 billion in assets, Invesco QQQ has $266.83 billion. VUG has an expense ratio of 0.04% and QQQ charges 0.20%.
Bottom-Line
Retail and institutional investors increasingly turn to passively managed ETFs because they offer low costs, transparency, flexibility, and tax efficiency; these kind of funds are also excellent vehicles for long term investors.

Top 3 Growth Stocks For 2024 And Beyond: 'I Have a Pretty Long Runway Because Of My Age,' Says Redditor

Last week, the House of Representatives moved forward on a bill that could<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/03/37664282/tiktok-bill-passes-house-vote-influencers-on-edge-chinese-owned-app-used-by-150m-americans"> ban TikTok in the U.S.</a> unless it is sold by its owner ByteDance Ltd.
The move has already faced rejection from Beijing and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37620686/tiktok-ban-looms-as-expert-predicts-harsher-us-china-restrictions-decoupling-is-really-in-full-force">is risking adding yet another complication</a> to the already unstable relationship between the world's two largest economies.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The TikTok Bill, Explained</h3>
TikTok, the popular short-video social media app used by more than 170 million Americans is facing scrutiny in Congress over concerns that ByteDance, its Chinese parent company, could comply with the Chinese government in actions liable to undermine national security.
The bill cleared the House with ease on Wednesday, but its passage received strong criticism from TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew, who warned that banning TikTok <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37688964/tiktok-ban-could-take-out-billions-of-dollars-out-of-creators-pockets-and-put-over-300k-american-job">could put &#8220;more than 300,000 jobs&#8221; in the U.S. at risk</a>.
If the bill passes in the Senate, ByteDance will be given the option to sell its U.S. operations or face a shutdown. In recent days, several prospective buyers came out to announce their interest, including former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/03/37713530/tiktok-bidding-war-mnuchin-kotick-emerge-as-potential-buyers"> former Activision Blizzard CEO </a>Bobby Kotick.
Analysts expect competitor companies in the social media space to benefit in<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/03/37689925/tiktok-ban-benefits-meta-and-others-but-us-is-playing-a-little-with-fire-says-wedbu"> the event of a TikTok ban</a>. These include Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) and Snap Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>), as U.S. users would naturally move to other platforms offering similar products.
In a recent poll, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/03/31282325/if-tiktok-is-banned-readers-overwhelmingly-say-theyll-flock-to-one-specific-app">38% of Benzinga users responded</a> that they're most likely to migrate to Instagram, owned by Meta, in the event of a ban, while 26% said they would move to X, formerly known as Twitter.
ETFs with heavy exposure to Meta and other U.S.-listed social media apps include Communication Services Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLC#NYSE">XLC</a>), Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) and Vanguard Growth Index Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What The Bill Means For U.S.-China Relations</h3>
A ban on TikTok, which has been talked about in Washington for years, could have vast consequences for U.S.-China relations. The issue was first brought forth in 2020 by former President Donald Trump, who raised the fact that a Chinese-owned company could hand over U.S. user data to the Chinese government or even be infiltrated by government officials who could manipulate the content algorithms to spread misinformation.
According to OpenSecrets, ByteDance is actively lobbying to fight restrictions in U.S. courts and in Congress, having spent north of $8.7 million in these efforts in 2023 alone, 77% more than the previous year.

Trump issued an executive order in 2020 to force a sale of the company's U.S. operations, but it was blocked in court.
Surprisingly, Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/03/37722366/why-did-donald-trump-change-his-mind-about-tiktok-follow-the-money-says-rep-nancy-pelosi">has come out to say he's against the ban now</a>, as he sees it benefiting Meta, a company that is in competition with Truth Social, the social media platform he owns. Trump has blamed Meta for "cheating" in the 2020 presidential election, which he lost.
The new piece of legislation comes at a time when U.S.-China tensions are rising. The TikTok bill can be read within the context of a broader strategy to limit Chinese control over key strategic technologies.
The U.S. has already set out measures to slowing China's development of AI systems by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/01/36714857/nvidias-key-market-china-wants-to-beat-us-embargo-boosts-chipmaking-machinery-imports-by-14">limiting its access to high-end semiconductors</a>, as well as preventing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/02/37313622/chinese-ev-entry-could-trigger-extinction-level-event-for-us-auto-industry-report-warns">Chinese electric vehicles from entering the U.S. market</a>.
Biden has recently referred to technology aboard Chinese-made EVs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/02/37388707/chinese-tech-in-cars-now-a-security-threat-biden-says-not-going-to-let-that-happen-on-my-watch-as-us">as a "security threat."</a>
Taiwan, a holder of key tech manufacturing infrastructure, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37049135/china-taiwan-conflict-poses-common-risk-for-apple-amazon-tesla-and-other-magnificent-7-giants-jeremy">would be at the center of any potential military escalations</a>, as its territory is claimed by China, while remaining a U.S. strategic ally.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Does China Have The Upper Hand?</h3>
Last Thursday, a spokesman for China's Ministry of Commerce signaled that the Chinese government would interfere with an effort to divest TikTok, forcing the app to forgo its U.S. user base before being sold, as <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/tiktok-ban-chinese-owners-bytedance-1a857a06?">reported</a> by the WSJ.
Chinese authorities have previously stated that any sale of TikTok to U.S. buyers would need to be approved by the Chinese government as it would signify the sale of Chinese technology. Content-recommendation algorithms, like the ones behind TikTok's massive success, are within China's export-control list, CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/03/14/tiktok-ban-china-would-block-sale-of-short-video-app.html">reports</a>.
A TikTok ban in the U.S., given its large user base, would likely face significant public backlash, potentially allowing China to use its influence to obstruct the sale and compel the U.S. government to seek alternative solutions.

TikTok Ban: China Has The Power To Block Sale, Gains Leverage Over Washington

Vanguard has become a towering figure <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">in the world of exchange-traded funds (ETFs)</a>. 
As investors increasingly turn to ETFs for their diversification, lower costs, and liquidity, understanding the offerings and strategies of major players like Vanguard is essential. 
Yet, amidst this expansive array of financial instruments, one notable absence in Vanguard&#8217;s portfolio raises eyebrows: the lack of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bitcoin-etf">Bitcoin ETF. </a>
Here, we delve into the five critical factors about Vanguard ETFs, also explaining why a Bitcoin ETF is deliberately missing from their portfolio lineup.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Vanguard&#8217;s Status In The ETF Arena</h3>
Vanguard ranks as the second-largest ETF issuer globally, overseeing a diverse portfolio of over a hundred ETFs and boasting an impressive $2.5 trillion in assets under management (AUM), just shy of BlackRock Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NYSE">BLK</a>), which leads with $2.7 trillion AUM.
The Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VOO#NYSE">VOO</a>), with $426 billion in AUM as of Mar. 14, 2024, is not only Vanguard&#8217;s flagship fund but also the world&#8217;s second-largest ETF, trailing slightly behind the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) at $503 billion.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Conservative Product Range</h3>
Unlike some of its peers, Vanguard has opted for a more conservative route in its ETF offerings. The company does not offer leveraged ETFs, sticking strictly to equity and fixed-income products. 
This strategic choice highlights Vanguard&#8217;s focus on traditional investment vehicles over speculative or alternative assets. Vanguard&#8217;s portfolio notably lacks any commodities, currency, or Bitcoin-related ETFs.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Absence of Bitcoin and Crypto ETFs</h3>
This absence isn&#8217;t due to oversight but a deliberate decision. Vanguard has explicitly stated it has no plans to introduce a Bitcoin ETF or any other crypto-related products, distinguishing itself from other major ETF issuers — such as BlackRock, VanEck, Franklin Templeton, WisdomTree, Invesco, Fidelity, Global X, 21 Shares and ProShares – who have embraced the crypto bandwagon.
Why No Bitcoin ETF? Vanguard&#8217;s Reasoning
Vanguard&#8217;s stance on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is grounded in a cautious approach to investment merit and client needs. Janel Jackson, global head of ETF Capital Markets and broker &amp; index relations at Vanguard, has expressed skepticism about the role of cryptocurrencies in long-term portfolios. 
Citing crypto&#8217;s speculative nature, lack of inherent economic value, and potential to disrupt portfolio stability, Vanguard sees crypto as an &#8220;immature asset class.&#8221; 
Instead, the company invests its interest in blockchain technology for its potential to enhance capital market efficiency, steering clear of cryptocurrencies as investment products.

5 Things You Need To Know About Vanguard ETFs: Why There's No Bitcoin ETF In Their Lineup?

Blake Moore, a Representative from Utah, reported a purchase of Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>) stock on January 24, 2024. According to the Periodic Transaction Report the transaction was placed on January 24, 2024.
What Happened: A recent report from the House of Representatives Clerk's Office on January 24, 2024 reveals that Moore made a purchase of <a href="www.benzinga.com/quote/VUG">Vanguard Growth ETF</a> stock valued between $102,003 - $280,000.
Vanguard Growth ETF shares are trading up 0.31% at $323.67 at the time of writing.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however, they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
A Congressional transaction is when any Representative or Senator either buys or sells an individual stock. Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
When a Senator or Representative makes a new purchase, that could be an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure. 
<h3>Trade Recap</h3>
A January filing states that Utah Representative Blake Moore bought shares of Vanguard Growth ETF. The exact amount of the transaction remained unknown but the filing states a range of $102,003 - $280,000.

Recent Filing Shows That Rep. Blake Moore Bought Over $102K Worth of Vanguard Growth ETF Stock

On Wednesday&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/podcast-show/pmp">Benzinga PreMarket Prep</a>, Todd Gordon, founder of Inside Edge Capital and TradingAnalysis.com, provided a rich analysis of market strategies, offering a sharp focus on the tech sector as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket-prep">we head into 2024.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2023 In Review: Diversification And Growth Fund Performance</h2>
Gordon highlighted his biggest mistake in 2023 as over-diversifying his growth fund, resulting in an excessive sector allocation. Despite this, the year was generally positive, without any major setbacks. 
He emphasized the importance of focusing on mega-cap growth, which affected the growth portfolio's performance.
Gordon observed the tech sector&#8217;s resilience amid global economic headwinds, noting its strong recovery post-pandemic and the sustained demand for technological solutions.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Looking Ahead: 2024 Predictions And Market Indicators To Watch</h2>
For 2024, Gordon stressed the significance of yield curves, specifically the relationship between nominal and real yields. He pointed out the inversion scenario in the market, with a focus on the 10-2 real yield curve. His analysis suggests that a high interest rate environment (around 7.5% for mortgages), when offset by net costs and inflation, isn't as daunting as it appears.
He predicted a potentially more stable interest rate environment in 2024, which could benefit long-term investments in tech.
As yields go down, growth stocks, as tracked by the Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>), should outperform value counterparts, as monitored by the Vanguard Value ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VTV#NYSE">VTV</a>).
The expert pointed out the significant amount of money parked in money market funds (around $6.14 trillion in Q2 of 2023) and discussed how shifts in interest rates could influence market dynamics and investor behavior.
Gordon also delved into the potential impact of the Federal Reserve&#8217;s rate adjustments. He expressed cautious optimism, anticipating a continuation of the bullish market, but remains vigilant about possible downturns.
He suggested that any significant change in unemployment could be a precursor to a recession, highlighting the importance of monitoring these indicators.
Gordon, an Elliott Wave analysts, also provided a technical perspective on the S&amp;P 500, discussing potential resistance zones and forecasting a need for a pullback after a five-wave move in the market.
For 2024, Gordon anticipates further growth, particularly in areas like AI, cloud computing, and cybersecurity, driven by ongoing digital transformation trends.

The House of Representatives is counting its 13th day without a leader <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/23/10/35135359/kevin-mccarthy-resigning-from-congress-after-being-ousted-as-top-house-republican-heres-what-former">after the ouster of U.S. Rep. Kevin McCarthy from the speakership position</a>.
McCarthy was removed from his role Oct. 3 in a vote in which the Democrats, together with eight hard-right Republicans, decided to remove a House speaker for the first time in U.S. history.
In the meantime, the House is frozen, unable to act. The situation has caused several urgent bills to become untouched, including <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35270063/biden-pledges-support-for-israel-against-hamas-ukraine-against-putin-were-the-united-states-of-ameri">a proposal by President Joe Biden to send aid to Israel to assist in its conflict with Hamas</a>, as well as a new measure needed to avoid a looming government shutdown, which is approaching in one month.
Government Shutdown Stopgap Expires In 1 Month: The vote earlier this month left the Speaker chair vacant and the House in mayhem. The historic event proved a testament to the growing difficulties gnawing away at the GOP, whose increasingly bitter internal disputes are grinding Washington, D.C. to a halt. 
It remains to be seen which political figure will have the power to unite the GOP-led House and harness the necessary votes to win the speakership.
McCarthy's run as speaker was short-lived and tumultuous. Throughout his tenure, McCarthy negotiated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/06/32704441/biden-signs-debt-ceiling-bill-to-avert-government-default">a high-stakes bill to raise the debt ceiling</a>, avoiding a default. Just last month, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/35019457/government-shutdown-avoided-congress-acts-just-in-time">Congress approved a stopgap bill aimed at preventing a full government shutdown</a>.
Yet the continuous resolution that allowed the government to continue to operate only lasts until Nov. 17, one month from now. If the House can't agree on a speaker in time, the government risks facing new shutdown risks. 
A House Divided: Within McCarthy's turbulent ride through the speakership position, one event stands out: his tortuous election for the role. It took 15 voting sessions to get McCarthy elected in January. He won the vote by 216 votes against New York Democrat Hakeem Jeffries, who received 212 votes.
McCarthy achieved the position after giving major concessions to hard-right Republicans who had been holding out on the vote.
Nine months later, the House appears even more divided. The House reconvenes on Monday and is expected to hold a vote for speaker at noon Tuesday. 
So far, only one candidate has been put forward by the GOP: U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan, from Ohio.
Jordan is one of the co-founders of the conservative Freedom Caucus, and a friend and ally to former President Donald Trump. Jordan won a secretly held internal vote, by which the GOP voted 124 to 81 to put him ahead of Georgia's Austin Scott.
Scott, a more moderate Republican who sides with McCarthy, decided to run against Jordan in an effort to avoid ceding control of the House to far-right Republicans.
An internal poll conducted by House Republicans on Friday revealed that only 152 of them would vote for Jordan on a floor vote, while 55 would oppose him, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/13/us/politics/house-speaker-jordan-scalise.html">according</a> to The New York Times. Jordan needs 217 votes to win the speakership if the House has full attendance.
All 212 House Democrats are expected to vote again for Jeffries. That leaves a big gap to fill for Jordan to win the speakership in a narrowly controlled House.
Jeffries said he would consider a coalition with Republicans who don't want Jordan on the role only if there's a change in House rules, allowing for both parties to choose what legislation is put up to vote. In the current scheme, Republicans have full control over which bills get a vote.
On Sunday, he told NBC "there are informal conversations that have been underway. When we get back to Washington tomorrow, it's important to begin to formalize those discussions."
Concurrently, allies of Jordan spent the weekend campaigning for him on social media, in an effort to flip the necessary representatives needed to put him in the speaker seat.
A recurring argument they used says that those Republicans who oppose Jordan are standing in the way of allowing the House to return to action.
Over the weekend, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35251860/kevin-mccarthy-on-speakership-chaos-how-do-you-allow-4-of-the-conference-to-do-this-to-the-entire-co">McCarthy blamed the hard-right Republicans who voted against him</a> for being the ones who caused the turmoil and blocked the House.
"How do you allow 4% of the conference to do this to the entire country?" he said to reporters.
Stocks To Watch: Further turmoil in Congress could have a negative effect on high-risk stocks. Investors often shy away from risk during times of instability in favor of safer options like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-is-a-bond">government bonds</a> or defensive stocks from consumer staple companies followed by Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLP#NYSE">XLP</a>) or Vanguard Consumer Staples Index Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VDC#NYSE">VDC</a>).
ETFs based on growth and innovation, normally used to follow aggressive stocks, could have a thesis against them in a deadlocked Congress situation. The innovation ETF Invesco QQQ Trust Series I (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), following the Nasdaq-100 index is among this group, along with the Vanguard Growth Index Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>).

Congress In Chaos: House Is Set For Speaker Vote Tuesday, But GOP Candidate Jim Jordan Has A Long Way To Go

Markets displayed a response Friday to the Federal Reserve&#8217;s Jackson Hole symposium that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/23/08/34042963/chair-powell-at-jackson-hole-fed-is-ready-to-raise-rates-further-if-appropriate">defied pre-event concerns</a>.
The first day of the annual Fed conference unveiled a mix of hawkish and dovish insights from the Federal Reserve, ultimately providing a reassuring tone to investors. 
Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#8216;s statements carried significant weight. Despite underlining the Fed&#8217;s commitment to raise rates further if necessary, Powell also remarked that it will proceed carefully and base decisions on data-driven assessments. 
The event featured a lineup of prominent Fed officials, including Philadelphia Fed President Patrick Harker, Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee and Cleveland Fed President Loretta Mester. Harker and Goolsbee, both voting members of the FOMC, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/23/08/34045414/feds-harker-breaks-ranks-with-powell-rejects-further-rate-increases-signaling-board-di">struck a dovish note</a>, in contrast to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/08/34045506/feds-loretta-mester-says-we-only-get-a-trophy-if-inflation-hits-2">Mester&#8217;s hawkish stance</a>.
Speculators, sensing potential policy shifts, raised their bets on a rate hike in November, pushing implied probabilities above 50%. Despite this uncertainty, the broader market showcased resilience during the symposium&#8217;s opening day Friday. 
All three major U.S. stock indices concluded the session on a positive note, demonstrating a collective upward trajectory. The S&amp;P 500&#8217;s 11 sectors followed suit, with every sector in the green. Volatility, gauged by the &#8220;Vix&#8221; fear index, saw a notable drop of 10%, reflecting calmer market sentiment.
Amid this backdrop, a snapshot of five major ETFs reveals intriguing insights:
1. SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>)
The SPY ETF turned the tide with a 0.8% increase, snapping a streak of three consecutive weeks of losses. The ETF closely mirroring the S&amp;P 500 index enjoyed positive price action throughout the latter half of the trading day. Friday&#8217;s rebound partially offset the 3.5% dip observed since the beginning of the month. Notably, Hasbro Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAS#NYSE">HAS</a>) emerged as the top performer within the SPY, marking a 6.7% gain for the day.
2. Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLK#NYSE">XLK</a>)
Friday saw the technology sector taking the lead in performance, as the XLK surged by 1.3%. Despite widespread expectations that hawkish remarks from Jackson Hole might exert pressure on tech giants, this did not materialize.
Likewise, the day&#8217;s gains only managed to partially offset Thursday&#8217;s losses, leaving XLK down by 5.4% since the beginning of August. 
Intuit Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTU#NASDAQ">INTU</a>) emerged as the top performer, displaying a notable 4.5% increase.
3. Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>)
Securing the second spot in daily performance among S&amp;P 500 sectors is the energy sector, with a robust 1.2% upswing. This surge was primarily propelled by escalating oil and natural gas prices. WTI crude oil confidently crossed the $80 per barrel mark, up 1.8%, while natural gas echoed the sentiment with an equally robust 1.8% surge. Among energy stocks, Valero Energy Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLO#NYSE">VLO</a>) emerged as the leader of the pack, charting a substantial 4.5% gain for the day.
4. iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>)
The Russell 2000 index responded positively, notching a 0.6% daily gain. Nevertheless, the index has posted a 6.5% decline month-to-date, reflecting the small cap&#8217;s underperformance in comparison to other prominent indices.
The standout of the day is Cano Health, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CANO#NYSE">CANO</a>), soaring by an astonishing 46% within the day&#8217;s trading, despite having plummeted by as much as 85% during the preceding week.
5. Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>)
Mitigated concerns about the Federal Reserve potentially over-tightening sparked a surge in the growth segment, overshadowing its value counterpart.
The Vanguard Growth ETF surged by 1.1%, outperforming the Vanguard Value ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VTV#NYSE">VTV</a>) which marked a more modest 0.7% increase.
Standing out among growth stocks is Workday Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WDAY#NASDAQ">WDAY</a>), achieving a noteworthy 6% gain, setting it apart from the competition.
