Growth or Techno-Future
VOOG gives you the growth side of the S&P 500—about 222 companies expected to grow faster.
VGT goes all-in on pure tech—around 317 companies across software, semiconductors, and hardware.
VGT crushed it with 22% annualized returns over the past decade versus VOOG's 17%, so my take is simple:
If you believe tech drives the future, why dilute it?
