VANGUARD GROWTH INDEX FUND SHARES ETF upgraded from Sell Candidate to Hold/Accumulate after Thursday trading session
(Updated on Jun 18, 2026)

Hold candidate since Jun 18, 2026

The VANGUARD GROWTH INDEX FUND SHARES ETF price gained 1.60% on the last trading day (Thursday, 18th Jun 2026), rising from $85.61 to $86.98. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.31% from a day low at $86.08 to a day high of $87.21. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -2.45% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -4 million shares and in total, 5 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $467.60 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

The ETF lies in the middle of a wide and strong rising trend in the short term and a further rise within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 22.23% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $104.10 and $114.66 at the end of this 3-month period.

VUG Signals & Forecast

The VANGUARD GROWTH INDEX FUND SHARES ETF holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the ETF, but the ETF has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $85.87 and $86.82. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The ETF should be watched closely. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Monday, June 01, 2026, and so far it has fallen -3.67%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for VANGUARD GROWTH INDEX FUND SHARES ETF

On the downside, the ETF finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $73.67 and $73.59. There is a natural risk involved when a ETF is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the ETF then may fall to the next support level. In this case, VANGUARD GROWTH INDEX FUND SHARES finds support just below today's level at $73.67. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $73.59 and $72.80.

This ETF is usually traded at a good volume, and with minor daily changes, the risk is considered to be low. During the last day, the ETF moved $1.13 (1.31%) between high and low. For the last week, the ETF has had daily average volatility of 1.38%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $83.35 (-4.17%) (This ETF has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 13 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (VUG) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 22nd

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 22nd we expect VANGUARD GROWTH INDEX FUND ETF SHARES to open at $86.76, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $86.19 and $87.77, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.58 (+/-1.83%) up or down from last closing price. If VANGUARD GROWTH INDEX FUND ETF SHARES takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.83% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $87.67 (0.79%) than the support at $73.67 (15.30%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
