Key Summary

Strategy

GOAT.AX was created on 2020-09-08 by VanEck. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on total market equity. Each Fund aims to provide investment returns before fees and other costs which track the performance of the Reference Index in Australian dollars. Each Fund does not aim to perfectly replicate the Reference Index on a one-to-one basis.

Vanguard U.S. Total Market Shares Index ETF (ASX: VTS) seeks to track the performance of the CRSP US Total Market Index before account fees, expenses and taxes. The index tracks the large, mid, small and micro-cap stocks on the US stock market, thus representing nearly 100% of the investable US stock market.
