| About Vanguard Sector Index Funds Vanguard Health Care ETF |
| Vanguard Health Care Index Fund is an open-end management investment company. The Fund seeks to track the performance of the MSCI US Investable Market Health Care Index, an index of stocks of large, medium, and small United States-based companies in the health care sector, as classified under the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS).

The YTD Return on the VHT YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site, is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year (up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis. Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether VHT YTD return or other benchmarks/peers — and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors by performing the VHT YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns. |
