- Vanguard Growth and Income Fund Investor Shares (VQNPX) is an actively managed open-end mutual fund offered by The Vanguard Group, Inc., that seeks a total return (capital appreciation plus dividend income) greater than the return of the S&P 500 Index. The fund invests at least 65% (and typically more than 90%) of its assets in stocks included in the S&P 500 Index, with most holdings providing both dividend income and potential for capital appreciation; it employs quantitative approaches and multiple non-affiliated investment advisors to construct a broadly diversified portfolio of U.S. large- and mid-cap stocks that collectively exhibit investment characteristics similar to the index but are selected to outperform it. Investor shares carry a net expense ratio of 0.36%, with a minimum initial investment of $3,000 and additional investments starting at $1; the fund distributes income semiannually in June and December and long- and short-term capital gains annually in December. As of recent data, total net assets exceed $16 billion, with a portfolio turnover rate of approximately 94% and top holdings comprising over 50% of the portfolio concentrated in leading S&P 500 constituents. Inception date December 10, 1986, the fund is managed through a team-based approach by Vanguard, headquartered in Malvern, Pennsylvania, with operations serving investors primarily in the United States. It targets long-term investors seeking exposure to the large blend category, blending growth and value characteristics within the large-cap equity segment. Recent developments include portfolio manager changes as part of Vanguard's broader leadership adjustments across 44 funds in June 2025, where multiple co-managers were removed to streamline teams and enhance continuity, though specific impacts on VQNPX were not isolated in announcements. The fund maintained stable advisory arrangements following prior realignments, with no major mergers, acquisitions, new product launches, or strategic shifts reported in 2024 or 2025; semiannual dividend payments continued uninterrupted, including $0.319 per share in December 2024. Performance as of mid-2025 reflected year-to-date gains aligned with large blend peers, supported by its quantitative multi-manager structure.
