Charles Schwab ETF (SCHG) Flaunts Top-Tier Growth Stock Package
If you're looking for a long-term core holding to anchor your portfolio, the Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF (SCHG) is a compelling choice—and so is its sponsor, Charles Schwab Corporation (SCHW). SCHG, managed by Schwab Asset Management, oversees approximately $46 billion in non-discretionary assets (in addition to $1.3 trillion in discretionary assets) and offers diversified exposure to leading growth stocks tied to some of the market's most durable long-term themes.

Its strong performance track record and ultra-low expense ratio make it particularly attractive for cost-conscious investors aiming to maximize long-term returns. At the same time, Charles Schwab Corporation, the parent company behind the fund, presents its own investment appeal as a major player in brokerage, banking, and asset management. Comparing SCHG with Vanguard Any serious discussion about what makes SCHG a compelling investment must start with its standout performance history. It's a well-known investing truth that few funds—whether ETFs, mutual funds, or even hedge funds—consistently outperform the market over time. SCHG is one of the rare exceptions, and it has been doing so for years. As of the most recent monthly close, SCHG delivered an impressive annualized return of 26.9% over the past three years. In comparison, the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO), which tracks the broader market via the S&P 500 (SPX), returned 19.6% annualized over the same period —strong in its own right, but trailing SCHG by a full seven percentage points annually. Looking further back, SCHG has continued to outperform. Over the past five years, it posted an 18.7% annualized return, outpacing VOO's 16.6%. And over the past decade, SCHG returned 16.7% annually, compared to VOO's 13.6%. Investing in a fund that delivers consistent double-digit annualized returns is a powerful way to grow portfolio value over time. To illustrate, a $10,000 investment in SCHG 10 years ago would be worth $45,645 today. While it's true that past performance doesn't guarantee future results, SCHG's long-term track record of outperformance positions it as a fund investors can reasonably count on to continue delivering strong results over time. SCHG's Miniscule Expense Ratio Not only has SCHG helped investors build wealth over time, but it also helps them preserve it with a negligible expense ratio of just 0.04%. This means that an investor putting $10,000 into the fund will pay just $4 in fees annually. Assuming that SCHG maintains this expense ratio and returns 5% per year going forward, the investor putting $10,000 into SCHG will pay just $34 in fees over the next 10 years. It's worth noting that this makes SCHG significantly cheaper than one of the other most popular tech- and growth-oriented ETFs, the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ), which charges a comparatively higher expense ratio of 0.20%. Exposure to Top Growth Stocks Importantly, SCHG's portfolio is where the rubber hits the road for investors. As a passively managed index fund, it offers solid diversification across 228 holdings, tracking the Dow Jones U.S. Large-Cap Growth Total Stock Market Index. That said, the fund is somewhat top-heavy—its top 10 holdings make up 58.5% of total assets. Nvidia (NVDA) leads the pack with a 12.3% weighting, followed closely by Microsoft (MSFT) at 11.0%, both reflecting their dominant roles in the current growth landscape. Below is a snapshot of SCHG's top 10 holdings, as sourced from TipRanks' holdings tool. As you can see, SCHG's top 10 holdings are a veritable who's who list of the top tech and growth stocks that have come to define the Tech market in recent years. In addition to the Magnificent Seven stocks, SCHG's top 10 holdings also include semiconductor giant Broadcom (AVGO), a key player in the AI revolution, and pharma megacap Eli Lilly (LLY), whose weight loss drugs have taken the healthcare sector by storm. Just outside of SCHG's top 10 holdings, other prominent positions include Visa (V), Mastercard (MA), Palantir (PLTR), Netflix (NFLX), and GE Aerospace (GE). What I find especially appealing about SCHG's portfolio is its dual advantage. On one hand, it offers immediate exposure to a roster of established market leaders with strong track records of outperformance. On the other hand, it positions investors to benefit from transformative, long-term growth themes. These include generative AI through companies like Nvidia, Microsoft, Broadcom, Meta Platforms (META), and Alphabet (GOOGL); autonomous vehicles via Tesla and Alphabet; robotics through Amazon (AMZN) and Tesla; and breakthroughs in biotech and weight-loss drugs through names like Eli Lilly (LLY). These are precisely the innovation-driven sectors that long-term investors should be targeting. One notable risk is SCHG's relatively high valuation—its holdings currently trade at a trailing 12-month price-to-earnings ratio of 36.8, well above the S&P 500's average of around 25. This is something investors should keep in mind. However, these are high-growth companies with strong earnings potential, which could make today's valuations appear more reasonable over time. For valuation-conscious investors like myself, strategies such as dollar-cost averaging or buying during market pullbacks can help mitigate this risk and build positions more prudently. SCHG is a Dividend Payer While it's not the fund's main calling card, SCHG is a dividend payer, albeit with a low dividend yield of just 0.38%. Still, the ETF has increased the size of its payout each of the past three years in a row, and I would expect it to continue to do so going forward as the stocks it holds increase their earnings over the years. Is SCHG a Good ETF to Buy? Turning to Wall Street, SCHG earns a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 201 Buys, 26 Holds, and one Sell rating assigned in the past three months. The average SCHG price target of $32.67 implies ~7.6% upside potential over the coming twelve months. Investor Takeaway While there's no shortage of ETFs on the market, few have consistently outperformed the broader indices over time, the way SCHG has. I'm bullish on SCHG due to its strong track record of long-term outperformance, ultra-low expense ratio, and high-quality portfolio of blue-chip growth stocks. These attributes make it a compelling choice for investors seeking a reliable, long-term core holding to anchor their portfolios for the long term.

Expand THE CHARLES SCHWAB CORPORATION Non-GAAP Financial Measures (In millions, except ratios and per share amounts) (Unaudited) In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), Schwab's second quarter earnings release contains references to the non-GAAP financial measures described below. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information about the financial performance of the Company, and facilitate meaningful comparison of Schwab's results in the current period to both historic and future results. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Schwab's use of non-GAAP measures is reflective of certain adjustments made to GAAP financial measures as described below. Non-GAAP Adjustment or Measure Definition Usefulness to Investors and Uses by Management Acquisition and integration-related costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and restructuring costs Schwab adjusts certain GAAP financial measures to exclude the impact of acquisition and integration-related costs incurred as a result of the Company's acquisitions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring costs, and, where applicable, the income tax effect of these expenses. Adjustments made to exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets are reflective of all acquired intangible assets, which were recorded as part of purchase accounting. These acquired intangible assets contribute to the Company's revenue generation. Amortization of acquired intangible assets will continue in future periods over their remaining useful lives. We exclude acquisition and integration-related costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and restructuring costs for the purpose of calculating certain non-GAAP measures because we believe doing so provides additional transparency of Schwab's ongoing operations, and is useful in both evaluating the operating performance of the business and facilitating comparison of results with prior and future periods. Costs related to acquisition and integration or restructuring fluctuate based on the timing of acquisitions, integration and restructuring activities, thereby limiting comparability of results among periods, and are not representative of the costs of running the Company's ongoing business. Amortization of acquired intangible assets is excluded because management does not believe it is indicative of the Company's underlying operating performance. Return on tangible common equity Return on tangible common equity represents annualized adjusted net income available to common stockholders as a percentage of average tangible common equity. Tangible common equity represents common equity less goodwill, acquired intangible assets — net, and related deferred tax liabilities. Acquisitions typically result in the recognition of significant amounts of goodwill and acquired intangible assets. We believe return on tangible common equity may be useful to investors as a supplemental measure to facilitate assessing capital efficiency and returns relative to the composition of Schwab's balance sheet. Adjusted Tier 1 Leverage Ratio Adjusted Tier 1 Leverage Ratio represents the Tier 1 Leverage Ratio as prescribed by bank regulatory guidance for the consolidated company and for Charles Schwab Bank, SSB (CSB), adjusted to reflect the inclusion of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in the ratio. Inclusion of the impacts of AOCI in the Company's Tier 1 Leverage Ratio provides additional information regarding the Company's current capital position. We believe Adjusted Tier 1 Leverage Ratio may be useful to investors as a supplemental measure of the Company's capital levels. Expand The Company also uses adjusted diluted EPS and return on tangible common equity as components of performance criteria for employee bonus and certain executive management incentive compensation arrangements. The Compensation Committee of CSC's Board of Directors maintains discretion in evaluating performance against these criteria. Additionally, the Company uses adjusted Tier 1 Leverage Ratio in managing capital, including its use of the measure as its long-term operating objective.

Charles Schwab (NYSE:SCHW) provides a broad range of financial services, including wealth management, brokerage, banking, and advisory solutions.

Schwab's shares outperformed for a second consecutive quarter, helped by an improved earnings outlook.

Investors believe Schwab will use these balances to pay down higher cost borrowings, which should drive net interest income and earnings higher.'

Charles Schwab Discloses Results of the Federal Reserve's 2025 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review
WESTLAKE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Charles Schwab Corporation (CSC or Schwab) announced today that it has received the results of the Federal Reserve's 2025 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR). These results included the Federal Reserve's estimate of Schwab's minimum capital ratios under the supervisory severely adverse scenario for the nine-quarter horizon beginning December 31, 2024 and ending March 31, 2027. Based on these results, Schwab's calculated stress capital buffer (SCB) remains well below the 2.5% minimum, resulting in a SCB at that floor. This 2.5% SCB will continue to be applicable to Schwab for the four-quarter period beginning October 1, 2025. Schwab's Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio of 32% as of March 31, 2025 was well in excess of the regulatory minimum of 4.5% combined with the SCB of 2.5% due to the relatively low risk nature of our balance sheet assets. Schwab ended the first quarter of 2025 with a consolidated adjusted Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of 7.13%, up from 6.85% at year-end 2024. This consolidated adjusted Tier 1 Leverage Ratio is above the long-term operating objective for CSC of 6.75% to 7.00%. CFO Mike Verdeschi commented, 'Schwab's CCAR stress test results reinforce the strength of our capital position and durability of our diversified model across a range of environments. The firm will continue to prioritize maintaining capital levels to support the evolving needs of our clients as well as long-term franchise growth – while at the same time seeking to enhance through-the-cycle stockholder value via the opportunistic return of capital in multiple forms.'
