Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund ETF Shares VNQ Strategy

The investment seeks to provide a high level of income and moderate long-term capital appreciation by tracking the performance of the MSCI U.S. Investable Market Real Estate 25/50 Index that measures the performance of publicly traded equity REITs and other real estate-related investments. The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in the stocks that make up the Target Index. The advisor attempts to track the index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets-either directly or indirectly through a wholly owned subsidiary. The fund is non-diversified.
