  • What does "buy" mean in VNQ activity?

    "Buy" means an investor increased their reported position in VNQ compared to the prior reporting period. This reflects growing exposure to VANGUARD REAL ESTATE ETF (VNQ) rather than necessarily a brand-new position (though new positions also appear as buys when prior quantity was zero).
