What this fund is
Objective, as filed

Vanguard U.S. Growth Fund (the Fund) seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.

Strategy, summarised

The fund employs multiple independent investment advisors who each select large-capitalization U.S. stocks with above-average earnings growth potential and reasonable valuations relative to expected earnings. The fund is nondiversified, meaning it may concentrate a greater percentage of assets in particular issuers than a diversified fund would. Because the fund's returns depend on the stock selections made by its advisors, performance will diverge from any benchmark to the extent those selections differ.
