Description
Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund ETF Shares (VNQ) invests in equity securities of U.S. real‑estate investment trusts and related real‑estate companies, covering a broad mix of property types such as office, retail, industrial, residential, health‑care, data‑center and specialized REITs, with virtually all holdings located in the United States. The fund follows a passive, full‑replication approach that seeks to match the performance of the MSCI US Investable Market Real Estate 25/50 Index, weighting each constituent in proportion to its market capitalisation. This structure makes VNQ suitable for investors who want diversified exposure to the U.S. real‑estate sector for potential income and inflation‑hedging benefits, and who are looking to complement equity or bond portfolios with a sector‑specific, long‑term investment.
