The ETFs Behind the Growth Portfolio

The Growth Portfolio pairs time-tested ETFs like SPY and MDY with a diversified selection designed for investors seeking long-term growth by investing in higher-risk assets. 

SPY
SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust

Launched in 1993 as the first U.S. ETF on a national exchange, SPY is still the world’s most traded ETF. It changed the game by giving savers an easy way to access a mix of assets and strategies.

Why SPY Stands Out
  • U.S. Large-cap core: Invests in 500 of the largest, most established U.S. companies, giving retirement savings long-term growth potential with the stability of market leaders.
  • Proven track record: With over 30 years of history and millions of shares traded daily, SPY provides a time-tested way to grow a retirement nest egg.
  • Sector diversification: Offers broad exposure to companies across all 11 sectors of the U.S. economy, giving retirement savings a balanced, well-rounded foundation.
MDY
SPDR® S&P MIDCAP 400® ETF Trust

Launched in 1995 as the first ETF focused on mid-sized U.S. companies, offering exposure to a segment often overlooked in most portfolios.

Why MDY Stands Out
  • Broad market exposure: Invests in mid-sized U.S. companies that are established yet still expanding, adding diversity to your portfolio.
  • Proven track record: With over 30 years of history, MDY has delivered solid, long-term returns, supporting retirement growth with a time-tested approach.
  • Balanced risk and reward: Mid-cap offers more growth potential than large caps and more stability than small caps, offering balanced risk and rewards.
