Börsenwert 44,4 Mrd. $

Schwab U.S. Broad Market ETF provides exposure to over 2,300 stocks across the entire domestic market, while Vanguard Morningstar Value ETF targets 306 large-cap value companies. Both funds carry an identical, low expense ratio of 0.03%, though Vanguard Morningstar Value ETF provides a significantly higher dividend yield.

The Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF promises broader diversification than the S&P 500, but a decade of returns tells a different story about what those extra 3,000 tickers actually deliver to your portfolio.

The Schwab U.S. Broad Market ETF's (SCHB) concentration risk is increasingly difficult to justify, with 33.7% of assets in its top 10 holdings and 36% allocated to technology. The mega-cap earnings advantage is narrowing, with large and mid caps expected to deliver increasingly similar earnings growth into 2027. Mid caps offer the stronger risk/reward, trading around 14.7x forward earnings versus 18.1x for large caps while providing comparable growth and substantially less concentration risk.

That mutual fund you bought during the Clinton years has quietly been draining your returns for decades, and the gap between what you pay and what modern investors pay is almost certainly bigger than you realize.

SCHB's performance is closely tied to technology sector momentum and AI-driven earnings, with the current tech allocation at 36.7%.
