September's top five articles were drawn from across the entire spectrum of the ETF Database content hubs, touching on a variety of topics that are dominating the autumn news cycle. However, the most read article of the month touched on the hottest subject of 2026 — artificial intelligence (AI).

AI headlines are getting spooky, but what about AI stocks? The hyperscalers and megacap tech firms make outsized contributions to market movement.

Not every AI stock riding this year's rally has growth that will last, according to T. Rowe Price portfolio manager Paul Greene.

Financial advisors are turning to active ETFs as a solution to navigating concentrated markets. Recent survey data reveals that fundamental research and strong performance top their priority lists.

Active ETFs have continued their ascent to start 2026. The category, which has seen accelerated launches and flows in recent years, surpassed a major milestone in January.

The T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth ETF remains a Hold due to persistent underperformance versus the S&P 500 and elevated fees. TCHP's concentrated tech exposure initially drove outperformance, but recent returns have mirrored SPY, eroding its active management thesis. Portfolio overweighting in NVDA, MSFT, AAPL, and GOOG (~43%) has not offset underweights in outperforming sectors like Healthcare and Industrials.

A new year brings a fresh opportunity to plan ahead and think long term about portfolios. Especially with so much uncertainty circling above, investors may be searching for solutions that offer consistency and durability.

The T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth ETF (TCHP) offers concentrated exposure to mega-cap tech and growth sectors, trading at a significant premium to the S&P 500. TCHP's portfolio emphasizes high-growth themes like AI, cloud, and the digital economy, with 68% in its top ten holdings and 76% in mega caps. While TCHP outperformed peers in recent years, its 5-year total return lags both the S&P 500 and its peer group average.

What do you really own when you invest in growth funds? Growth-oriented equities have been a big driver of portfolio performance, but how best should investors get exposure?

T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth ETF is an actively managed large-cap ETF aiming to outperform the S&P 500 via concentrated growth holdings. TCHP has recently matched its benchmark, with notable wins like CVNA, but overall performance has not consistently exceeded SPY, especially after fees. The ETF carries a 0.57% expense ratio, higher volatility (beta 1.07), and heavy tech exposure, making it similar to SPY but with less liquidity.
