- VUG, being a Vanguard fund, likely contributes to this broad category as well.
- Financial Services sector allocation decreased slightly from $1.0 million (previously disclosed) down to approximately $1.178M or less than $1.2M in value (InsiderSet data indicates a change, but the exact post-change allocation percentage is not provided for this sector).
