ADR—American Depositary Receipt.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund's pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

B. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund's pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

C. Repurchase Agreements: The fund enters into repurchase agreements with institutional counterparties. Securities pledged as collateral to the fund under repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature, and in the absence of a default, such collateral cannot be repledged, resold or rehypothecated. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into repurchase agreements only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master repurchase agreements with its counterparties. The master repurchase agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty's default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any repurchase agreements with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund. Such action may be subject to legal proceedings, which may delay or limit the disposition of collateral.

D. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used


 

U.S. Growth Fund

to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments as of November 30, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 6,282,597 20,732 2,630
Preferred Stocks 106,233
Convertible Preferred Stocks 13,453
Temporary Cash Investments 150,769 22,894
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (313)
Total 6,433,053 43,626 122,316
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.    

 

The determination of Level 3 fair value measurements is governed by documented policies and procedures adopted by the board of trustees. The board has designated a pricing review committee, as an agent of the board, to ensure the timely analysis and valuation of Level 3 securities held by the fund's in accordance with established policies and procedures. The pricing review committee employs various methods for calibrating valuation approaches, including a regular review of key inputs and assumptions, transactional back-testing or disposition analysis, and reviews of any related market activity. All valuation decisions made by the pricing review committee are reported to the board on a quarterly basis for review and ratification. The board reviews the adequacy of the fair value measurement policies and procedures in place on an annual basis.

The following table summarizes changes in investments valued based on Level 3 inputs during the period ended November 30, 2016. Transfers into or out of Level 3 are recognized based on values as of the date of transfer.

  Investments in
  Common Stocks,
  Preferred Stocks, and
  Convertible Preferred
  Stocks
Amount Valued Based on Level 3 Inputs ($000)
Balance as of August 31, 2016 123,695
Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) (1,379)
Balance as of November 30, 2016 122,316

 

The following table provides quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in fair value measurement as of November 30, 2016:


 

U.S. Growth Fund

Security Type Fair Value Valuation Technique Unobservable Input Amount
  ($000)      
 
Common Stocks 2,630 Market Approach Recent Market $50.192
      Transaction  
 
Preferred Stocks 106,233 Market Approach Recent Market 50.192
      Transaction  
      Recent Market  
        48.772
      Transaction  
      Comparable  
      Company Approach 5.600
      Comparable 17.470
      Company Approach  
 
Convertible 13,453 Market Approach Target Event 105.000
Preferred Stocks        

 

Significant increases or decreases in the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the portfolio’s Level 3 securities, in isolation, could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

E. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objective of maintaining full exposure to the stock market while maintaining liquidity. The fund may purchase or sell futures contracts to achieve a desired level of investment, whether to accommodate portfolio turnover or cash flows from capital share transactions. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund's performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate settlement values of the contracts are not recorded in the Schedule of Investments. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded as an asset (liability).

At November 30, 2016, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

      ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Long Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts (Short) (Depreciation) 
E-mini S&P 500 Index December 2016 822 90,371 2,377
E-mini S&P Mid-Cap 400 Index December 2016 262 42,625 2,479
        4,856

 


 

U.S. Growth Fund

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

F. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $4,953,581,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,645,727,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $1,852,778,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $207,051,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

ADR—American Depositary Receipt.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund's pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

B. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund's pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).


 

International Growth Fund

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments as of November 30, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks—North and South America 2,009,644 219,312
Common Stocks—Other 2,599,521 16,026,337 315,808
Preferred Stocks 123,386
Temporary Cash Investments 645,060 19,070
Futures Contracts—Assets1 769
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (155)
Forward Currency Contracts—Assets 4,636
Forward Currency Contracts—Liabilities (13,215)
Total 5,254,839 16,256,140 439,194
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.    

 

The determination of Level 3 fair value measurements is governed by documented policies and procedures adopted by the board of trustees. The board has designated a pricing review committee, as an agent of the board, to ensure the timely analysis and valuation of Level 3 securities held by the fund in accordance with established policies and procedures. The pricing review committee employs various methods for calibrating valuation approaches, including a regular review of key inputs and assumptions, transactional back-testing or disposition analysis, and reviews of any related market activity. All valuation decisions made by the pricing review committee are reported to the board on a quarterly basis for review and ratification. The board reviews the adequacy of the fair value measurement policies and procedures in place on an annual basis.

The following table summarizes changes in investments valued based on Level 3 inputs during the period ended November 30, 2016. Transfers into or out of Level 3 are recognized based on values as of the date of transfer.

  Investments in Investments in
  Common Stocks Preferred Stocks
  ($000) ($000)

Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) (11,733) 6,630
Balance as of November 30, 2016 315,808 123,386
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from investments still held as of November 30, 2016, was ($5,103,000).

The following table provides quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in fair value measurement as of November 30, 2016:

Security Type Fair Value Valuation Technique Unobservable Input Amount
  ($000)      
Common Stocks 315,808 Market Approach Purchase Price $2,262.655
      Purchase Price 2,228.610
      Recent Market Transaction 1,899.027
      Recent Market Transaction 182.735
      Recent Market Transaction 181.787
      Discounted Purchase Price 77.720
      Discounted Recent Market 68.730
      Transaction  
      Comparable Company 24.483
      Approach  
Preferred Stocks 123,386 Market Approach Recent Market Transaction 3.861
      Marked-up Purchase Price 1.148

 

Significant increases or decreases in the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the portfolio’s Level 3 securities, in isolation, could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

D. Futures and Forward Currency Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objective of maintaining full exposure to the stock market while maintaining liquidity. The fund may purchase or sell futures contracts to achieve a desired level of investment, whether to accommodate portfolio turnover or cash flows from capital share transactions. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund's performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.

The fund enters into forward currency contracts to provide the appropriate currency exposure related to any open futures contracts or to protect the value of securities and related receivables and payables against changes in foreign exchange rates. The fund's risks in using these contracts include movement in the values of the foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contracts. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into forward currency contracts only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold or rehypothecated. The master netting arrangements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate the forward currency contracts, determine the


 

International Growth Fund

net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund under the master netting arrangements. The forward currency contracts contain provisions whereby a counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund's net assets decline below a certain level, triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination. The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any assets pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The value of collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the forward currency contracts exposure with each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is adjusted and settled within two business days.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. Forward currency contracts are valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent third party, adjusted for currency risk based on the expiration date of each contract. The aggregate settlement values of the contracts are not recorded in the Schedule of Investments. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded as an asset (liability).

At November 30, 2016, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Long Appreciation

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50 Index and FTSE 100 Index futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

At November 30, 2016, the fund had open forward currency contracts to receive and deliver currencies as follows. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open forward currency contracts is treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

* Non-income-producing security.
^ Includes partial security positions on loan to broker-dealers. The total value of securities on loan is $1,067,000.
1 Affiliated money market fund available only to Vanguard funds and certain trusts and accounts managed by Vanguard. Rate shown is the 7-day yield.


 

2 Includes $1,105,000 of collateral received for securities on loan.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At November 30, 2016, 100% of the market value of the fund's investments was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

C. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,912,512,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $491,668,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $531,662,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $39,994,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

1 The fund invests a portion of its cash reserves in equity markets through the use of index futures contracts. After
giving effect to futures investments, the fund's effective common stock and temporary cash investment positions
represent 100.0% and 0.0%, respectively, of net assets.
2 Affiliated money market fund available only to Vanguard funds and certain trusts and accounts managed by
Vanguard. Rate shown is the 7-day yield.
3 Includes $1,558,000 of collateral received for securities on loan.
4 Securities with a value of $300,000 have been segregated as initial margin for open futures contracts.
5 The issuer operates under a congressional charter; its securities are generally neither guaranteed by the U.S.
Treasury nor backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.


 

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services..

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments as of November 30, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 1,189,181
Temporary Cash Investments 4,749 400
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (12)
Total 1,193,918 400
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.    

 

C. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.


 

Mega Cap Index Fund

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate settlement values of the contracts are not recorded in the Schedule of Investments. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded as an asset (liability).

At November 30, 2016, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

      ($000)
 
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Long Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts (Short) (Depreciation) 
E-mini S&P 500 Index December 2016 49 5,387 153

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

D. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $863,222,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $331,108,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $346,891,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $15,783,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

* Non-income-producing security.
^ Includes partial security positions on loan to broker-dealers. The total value of securities on loan is $5,297,000.
1 The fund invests a portion of its cash reserves in equity markets through the use of index futures contracts. After
giving effect to futures investments, the fund's effective common stock and temporary cash investment positions
represent 100.0% and 0.2%, respectively, of net assets.
2 Affiliated money market fund available only to Vanguard funds and certain trusts and accounts managed by
Vanguard. Rate shown is the 7-day yield.
3 Includes $5,591,000 of collateral received for securities on loan.
4 The issuer operates under a congressional charter; its securities are generally neither guaranteed by the U.S.
Treasury nor backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.
5 Securities with a value of $200,000 have been segregated as initial margin for open futures contracts.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest
rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).


 

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine
the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments as of November 30, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 2,302,184
Temporary Cash Investments 8,201 300
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (10)
Total 2,310,375 300
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.    

 

C. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate settlement values of the contracts are not recorded in the Schedule of Investments. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded as an asset (liability).

At November 30, 2016, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
 
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Long Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts (Short) (Depreciation)
E-mini S&P 500 Index December 2016 39 4,288 106

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

D. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,839,674,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $471,011,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $518,819,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $47,808,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

* Non-income-producing security.
1 The fund invests a portion of its cash reserves in equity markets through the use of index futures contracts. After
giving effect to futures investments, the fund's effective common stock and temporary cash investment positions
represent 100.0% and 0.0%, respectively, of net assets.
2 Affiliated money market fund available only to Vanguard funds and certain trusts and accounts managed by
Vanguard. Rate shown is the 7-day yield.
3 Securities with a value of $100,000 have been segregated as initial margin for open futures contracts.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value. Temporary cash investments are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments as of November 30, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:


 

Mega Cap Value Index Fund

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 1,594,164
Temporary Cash Investments 200
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (2)
Total 1,594,162 200
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.    

 

C. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate settlement values of the contracts are not recorded in the Schedule of Investments. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded as an asset (liability).

At November 30, 2016, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

      ($000)
 
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Long Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts (Short) (Depreciation)
E-mini S&P 500 Index December 2016 7 770 22

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

D. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,303,648,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $290,716,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $305,070,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $14,354,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

1 Affiliated money market fund available only to Vanguard funds and certain trusts and accounts managed by
Vanguard. Rate shown is the 7-day yield.
2 Includes $23,466,000 of collateral received for securities on loan.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.


 

Consumer Discretionary Index Fund

Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At November 30, 2016, 100% of the market value of the fund's investments was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

C. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $2,020,800,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $102,793,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $256,524,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $153,731,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At November 30, 2016, 100% of the market value of the fund's investments was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

C. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $3,604,286,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $329,945,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $373,837,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $43,892,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

REIT—Real Estate Investment Trust.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.


 

Financials Index Fund

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

CVR—Contingent Value Rights.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments as of November 30, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 6,178,341 333
Temporary Cash Investments 36,195
Total 6,214,536 333

 

C. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $6,017,365,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $197,504,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $618,338,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $420,834,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At November 30, 2016, 100% of the market value of the fund's investments was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

C. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $2,380,459,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $309,724,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $378,482,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $68,758,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At November 30, 2016, 100% of the market value of the fund's investments was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

C. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $8,245,528,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $2,306,520,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $2,435,772,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $129,252,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments as of November 30, 2016,
based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)

Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (3)
Total 1,454,786 1,454
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.    

 

C. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate settlement values of the contracts are not recorded in the Schedule of Investments. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded as an asset (liability).

At November 30, 2016, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

      ($000)
 
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Long Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts (Short) (Depreciation) 
E-mini S&P 500 Index December 2016 20 2,199 9

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

D. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,474,814,000. Net unrealized depreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $18,571,000, consisting of


 

Telecommunication Services Index Fund

unrealized gains of $86,620,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $105,191,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

E. Certain of the fund's investments are in companies that are considered to be affiliated companies of the fund because the fund owns more than 5% of the outstanding voting securities of the company or the issuer is another member of The Vanguard Group. Transactions during the period in securities of these companies were as follows:

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each


 

Utilities Index Fund

security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund's net asset value.

B. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At November 30, 2016, 100% of the market value of the fund's investments was determined based on Level 1 inputs.

C. At November 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $2,753,819,000. Net unrealized depreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $29,970,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $129,835,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $159,805,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.
