$10K in Vanguard Tech ETF on ChatGPT launch grew to $30.5K, beating QQQ's $26.1K over nearly 4 years.

A $10,000 investment in the Vanguard Information Technology ETF (VGT) on the day ChatGPT launched in November 2022 has grown to $30,482 with dividends reinvested, outperforming the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ), which grew to $26,095 over 3.85 years. The key difference is VGT's higher concentration in AI-related tech giants like NVIDIA, Apple, and Microsoft, which drove stronger gains but also greater volatility, as seen in the 2025 selloff. While VGT offers higher returns, it carries more risk due to its concentrated holdings, making it less diversified than QQQ. Investors should consider their risk tolerance and portfolio balance when choosing between these funds going forward.

As of Oct 09, 2026 23:41 WIB, VGT trades at USD 127.50 with a modest 0.20% gain on Pluang. Nvidia, a key holding in VGT, is priced at USD 229.24 but slipped 0.54% in the last day. Microsoft, another major VGT component, gained 2.35% to USD 534.87, showing mixed momentum among top tech stocks on Pluang.
