Alpha Zero LLC lifted its position in Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHG) by 7.3% in the first quarter, according to its most recent Form 13F filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The institutional investor owned 528,923 shares of the company's stock after purchasing an additional 35,882 shares during the quarter.

Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF is rated BUY for its exposure to leading U.S. growth companies and a low 0.04% expense ratio. SCHG's concentrated portfolio captures durable growth trends in AI, cloud, automation, and digital infrastructure, but relies heavily on a few large-cap names. Returns will increasingly depend on continued earnings growth from top holdings rather than further valuation expansion over the next 6-12 months.

Designed to provide broad exposure to the Large Cap Growth segment of the US equity market, the Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF (SCHG) is a passively managed exchange traded fund launched on December 11, 2009.
