SCHG is Schwab's large-cap growth ETF, similar to VUG but with a slightly higher 0.04% expense ratio versus VUG's 0.03%. Top holdings — Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft — are nearly identical.

Its 15.4% one-year return and -15.5% max drawdown closely mirror VUG's 14.7% and -15.3%. Choosing between the two mainly comes down to brokerage access rather than any meaningful performance gap.
