(Updated on Jun 05, 2026)
The Vanguard Consumer Staples Index Fund ETF price gained 1.73% on the last trading day (Friday, 5th Jun 2026), rising from $221.91 to $225.75. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 2.09% from a day low at $223.54 to a day high of $228.22. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days and is down by -1.75% for this period.

In total, 216 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $48.65 million.
The ETF is moving within a horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Vanguard Consumer Staples Index Fund ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $221.42 and $235.48 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and ETFS seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. ETFS turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.
VDC Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, June 02, 2026, and so far it has risen 2.23%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Vanguard Consumer Staples Index Fund ETF holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the ETF giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. On further gains, the ETF will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $228.44. On a fall, the ETF will find some support from the short-term average at $223.43. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). The ETF had a Golden Star Signal on Thursday, January 08, 2026 in the long-term chart.
Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the ETF in question.
