Methodology & Data Sources

BuyVEQT.com is an unofficial, community-driven information hub for the Vanguard All-Equity ETF Portfolio (VEQT). It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Vanguard Investments Canada Inc. or any other financial institution.

The site is designed to make publicly available information about VEQT more accessible and easier to understand for Canadian investors.

Price quotes, daily change, 52-week ranges, volume, and other real-time market data are sourced from Yahoo Finance via the yahoo-finance2 library. Data is cached and refreshed approximately every 30 minutes.

Market data may be delayed and should not be used for trading decisions. Always verify prices with your brokerage before placing trades.

Historical price data for VEQT and comparison ETFs is also sourced from Yahoo Finance. Charts show adjusted close prices (accounting for distributions and splits).

Comparison charts display normalized performance (percentage change from a common start date), which allows meaningful comparison between funds with different unit prices. The available time ranges are limited to the shortest-lived fund in the comparison.

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Fund-level information such as MER, AUM, number of holdings, geographic allocation, underlying ETFs, and sector breakdowns are manually compiled from official fund documents, Vanguard's website, and regulatory filings (Fund Facts).

This data is updated periodically but is not live. There may be a lag between when a fund provider updates their official documents and when this site reflects those changes.

MER note: Vanguard reduced VEQT's management fee from 0.22% to 0.17% in November 2025. The official MER (which includes operating expenses and taxes) was last reported as 0.24% based on a prior fiscal year. The effective MER is expected to be approximately 0.19%–0.20% once recalculated. This site displays “~0.20%*” with a footnote to reflect this pending update.

Distribution history is compiled from Vanguard's official distribution announcements. Distribution amounts, ex-dividend dates, and payment dates are recorded as published.

Yield calculations (trailing 12-month yield) are computed by using the most recent annual distribution and dividing by the current unit price. This is a standard trailing yield calculation and does not predict future distributions.
