Money in and out

Monthly data · as of Jun 30, 2026

VO’s fund, all share classes together: in the month to Jun 30, 2026, net $684m came in, by its SEC filing.

Computed by ETFIQ from the monthly sales and redemptions VO files with the SEC on Form N-PORT.

How this is computed

ETFIQ reads no daily data for this fund, so its flows are monthly, and the latest month filed is Jun 2026. The filing covers all share classes of the fund, not the ETF alone: Vanguard sells its ETF as one share class of a fund that also has mutual fund shares. Every day and month ETFIQ holds for VO, back to Jul 2019, is in its flows file. Flows across every fund · How these flows are computed · Compare VO with other funds in the flows tool

Month by month, money in and money outJul 2023 to Jun 2026

VO, all share classes of its fund, money in and money out each month from Jul 2023 to Jun 2026: two bars a month, money in above the line and money out below. Every bar is from VO’s SEC filings (N-PORT item B.6). Of the 36 months listed, money came in on net in 23 and went out in 13.
