(IVW) iShares SP500 Growth - Ratings and Ratios

The iShares S&P 500 Growth ETF (IVW) is designed to track the performance of the large-cap growth sector within the U.S. equity market. It does this by investing at least 80% of its assets in the stocks that make up its underlying index, which is the S&P 500 Growth Index. The fund also has the flexibility to allocate up to 20% of its assets into futures, options, and swap contracts, as well as cash and cash equivalents, which can be used for hedging or to manage liquidity.

As a non-diversified fund, IVW can take larger positions in individual securities compared to diversified funds, which means it can have greater exposure to the growth-oriented companies within the S&P 500. This approach can lead to higher volatility but also the potential for higher returns if the growth sector performs well. The fund is domiciled in the United States and is listed on the NYSE ARCA under the ticker symbol IVW.

With an AUM of $58.54 billion, IVW is one of the larger ETFs in its category. It focuses on large-cap growth stocks, which are typically established companies with strong revenue and earnings growth potential. The funds structure allows it to provide exposure to a concentrated portfolio of growth-oriented securities, making it a popular choice for investors looking to capitalize on the growth segment of the U.S. market.
