The short version
Fidelity Enhanced Large Cap Growth ETF (FELG) holds large US growth stocks, mostly from the Russell 1000 Growth Index. Fidelity picks them with a computer-driven research model that aims to beat that index. Its 0.18% expense ratio is double the 0.09% average of similar funds. It is also concentrated: as of June 30, 2026, Nvidia alone was 13.1% of assets and the top 10 holdings made up 54.6%.

How it works
Fidelity runs FELG to seek capital appreciation, meaning growth in the value of your shares. The fund normally keeps at least 80% of its assets in stocks from the Russell 1000 Growth Index. That index tracks large US growth companies and is weighted by market value, so bigger companies count for more. Each quarter the index caps any single stock at 22.5%. Stocks above 4.5% also can't add up to more than 45% of the index.
FELG does not copy the index. Fidelity's research model scores stocks on factors, which are traits linked to long-term returns, such as valuation, growth and quality. A proprietary portfolio construction and risk management framework then chooses a broad group of stocks it thinks can beat the index's total return. As of June 30, 2026, the fund had about 150 positions. Portfolio turnover was 71%, so a large share of the holdings changes over a year.
The fund may use derivatives, and they count toward its 80% rule. As of June 30, 2026, it held a small S&P 500 futures position, about 0.03% of assets, plus 2.28% in cash. Legally, FELG is classified as non-diversified. That lets it put more money into fewer companies than a diversified fund could. Like any ETF, it trades on an exchange, so its market price can drift slightly from the value of its holdings.
What it really costs
- FELG charges 0.18% a year, versus an average of 0.09% for the similar funds below (6th of 8, cheapest first).
- Using the prospectus's standard example, $10,000 invested would cost about $18 in the first year and $230 over 10 years (assuming a 5% annual return).
| Cost of $10,000 (SEC example) | 1 yr | 3 yrs | 5 yrs | 10 yrs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FELG | $18 | $58 | $101 | $230 |
In a retirement portfolio
FELG is a concentrated, tech-heavy growth fund that has moved more than the market and has under three years of history, so it fits better as a smaller slice next to broader holdings.
FELG could add a tilt toward large US growth companies. Its record is short, though. It launched November 20, 2023, so it was not around for the 2008, 2020 or 2022 downturns. Its deepest drop was 23.9%, from December 16, 2024, to April 8, 2025. It got back to its old peak by June 27, 2025, about 2.6 months later. Its weakest full calendar year was still a gain, 18.6% in 2025. Its beta was 1.32 for the year to October 27, 2026, meaning it tended to move about a third more than the market. Someone forced to sell in a slump could lock in bigger losses. Income is small: the yield was 0.36% as of October 27, 2026, paid quarterly. On $10,000, the SEC example shows $230 in costs over 10 years. Past results don't predict future ones, and a plan should look at the whole portfolio, not one fund.
Who it may suit — and who should look elsewhere
May suit
- Investors who want large US growth stocks plus a model-driven attempt to beat the Russell 1000 Growth Index, and who accept a 0.18% fee for that.
- People comfortable with heavy bets on chipmakers and tech giants: Nvidia, Apple, Alphabet, Broadcom and Microsoft led the fund as of June 30, 2026.
- Long-term savers using it as a smaller growth slice next to broader stock and bond funds, with time to ride out drops like its 23.9% decline.
Look elsewhere if
- Cost-focused investors. Vanguard's VONG tracks the Russell 1000 Growth Index for 0.07%, and SPYG, VUG and SCHG each charge 0.04%.
- Retirees who need income. The trailing yield was just 0.36% as of October 27, 2026, paid quarterly.
- Anyone who wants a long track record. FELG launched in November 2023 and has not been tested in a bear market like 2008 or 2022.

Questions investors ask
Is FELG an actively managed ETF?
Yes. FELG does not simply copy an index. Fidelity uses a systematic, research-driven model to pick stocks, mostly from the Russell 1000 Growth Index. The model weighs factors such as valuation, growth and quality, and the goal is a higher total return than that index. The prospectus warns that this quantitative approach can lag when its factors stop working. Portfolio turnover was 71%, so many holdings change over a year.
What's the difference between FELG and IWF?
IWF is an index fund that tracks the Russell 1000 Growth Index. FELG picks from the same index but tries to beat it. About 73% of their holdings overlap. Their costs are close: 0.18% for FELG and 0.19% for IWF. IWF is much larger, with $128.9 billion versus $5.65 billion as of June 30, 2026. Over one year, FELG returned 3.8% through October 27, 2026, while IWF lost 0.9% through October 29, 2026. Vanguard's VONG tracks the same index for 0.07%.
Does FELG pay dividends?
Yes, but not much. FELG pays quarterly. Its trailing 12-month yield was 0.36%, or about $0.156 per share, as of October 27, 2026. That low yield is typical of growth stocks, which tend to reinvest profits instead of paying them out. Investors looking for steady income from their portfolio would get very little from this fund. Most of its return has to come from rising share prices.
What are FELG's top holdings?
As of June 30, 2026, Nvidia was the largest holding at 13.1% of assets. Next came Apple at 7.6%, Alphabet Class A at 6.6% (plus Class C at 3.4%), Broadcom at 5.4%, Microsoft at 5.0% and Micron at 4.2%. The top 10 holdings made up 54.6% of the fund. Technology was about half of the holdings that have a sector label, and communication services was 14.4%.
How risky is FELG?
FELG has been more volatile than the broad market. Its deepest drop was 23.9%, from December 16, 2024, to April 8, 2025. It recovered by June 27, 2025. As of October 27, 2026, its three-year volatility was 19.8% and its one-year beta was 1.32, so it tended to swing more than the market. It is also legally non-diversified, so a few big holdings drive results. It has not yet been through a full bear market.
