VHT Factset Analytics Insight

VHT offers broad exposure to health care companies in the US. The fund holds health care firms, stretching across multiple industries from the broadly defined health care space. The fund’s large basket stems from its total market universe. The fund diversifies its holdings by applying limits on regulated investment companies, such that no group entity exceeds 25% of the index weight and the aggregate weight of issuers with over 5% weight in the index are capped at 50% of the portfolio. Like all Vanguard funds, VHT has limited transparency, as holdings are only published monthly. The index is rebalanced quarterly.
