SCHG in Focus

Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF offers exposure to large-cap U.S. equities that exhibit growth characteristics. It has key holdings in information technology, health care, communication services and consumer discretionary.

Why the Move?

The large-cap growth corner of the broad investing world has been an area to watch lately, given the persistent surge in the stock market. All three major indices are hitting new 2023 highs on Fed rate cut talks. The Fed penciled in three rate cuts for 2024, spreading huge optimism in the stock market. In particular, growth stocks tend to outperform in a trending market (i.e., a market characterized by a prolonged uptrend).

More Gains Ahead?

Currently, SCHG has a Zacks ETF Rank #2 (Buy) with a Medium risk outlook, suggesting that the outperformance could continue in the months ahead. Many spaces that make up this ETF have a strong Zacks Industry Rank. So, there is definitely some promise for those who want to ride this surging ETF a little further.
