What are VANGUARD SPECIALIZED FUNDS's assets under management (AUM)?
VANGUARD SPECIALIZED FUNDS has $65.8B in assets under management (AUM) according to its most recent SEC N-PORT filing on StockSifting. AUM represents the total market value of all securities and other assets held by the fund as of the report date. A larger AUM generally signals a more established fund with greater institutional adoption, more trading liquidity, and potentially lower per-unit operational costs due to economies of scale. AUM changes daily as market prices fluctuate and as investors purchase or redeem fund shares — the figure shown here reflects the most recently available N-PORT disclosure, not the current real-time value. For the live figure, consult the fund's official website or its latest SEC EDGAR filing.

What is VANGUARD SPECIALIZED FUNDS's expense ratio?
Expense ratio data for VANGUARD SPECIALIZED FUNDS is not currently available in StockSifting's database. The expense ratio is the annual fee charged by a mutual fund as a percentage of your investment, covering management fees and operational costs. It is one of the most important factors affecting net long-term returns — lower expense ratios allow more of a fund's gross performance to flow through to investors. For the most accurate and current expense ratio, refer to the fund's official prospectus or its SEC EDGAR filings. You can also contact us if you believe this data should be present.

How current is VANGUARD SPECIALIZED FUNDS's holdings data on StockSifting?
Holdings data for VANGUARD SPECIALIZED FUNDS on StockSifting is sourced from its most recent SEC EDGAR N-PORT filing. Under SEC rules, registered investment companies must file N-PORT reports monthly, but these are made publicly available approximately 60 days after the reporting period end date. This means the holdings shown on this page reflect the fund's portfolio from roughly two months prior — not today's exact positions. The Report date displayed at the top of this page indicates exactly when the underlying data was current. If the fund has made significant portfolio changes since that date — responding to market events, earnings releases, or macro shifts — those changes will not be reflected here until the next N-PORT filing is released. For the most up-to-date holdings before the public disclosure window, refer to the fund's official website or SEC EDGAR directly. StockSifting is best used for fundamental research and historical portfolio analysis, not real-time trading decisions.
