Moving all Investments to Vanguard

You may have capital gains tax to pay so I would check your unrealized gain/loss and see where you stand.

I'd probably still go through with getting out of TWGTX if you're planning to keep the money invested for the long term... There are better performing, more cost friendly alternatives available, and you could realize a loss at the end of the year anyway so just pay attention to that.

VGT is good but how much $ are we talking? If it's a significant amount, are you sure you want to put 100% into a sector etf? I'd look at putting a portion in some of the other ETFs they have. I'd consider VUG, VXUS, VTI, VOO, VIG, and maybe some of the other sector ETFs like VFH.

You could just do a security transfer into your Vanguard account and keep the TWGTX. At least that way you won't have to pay any capital gains tax.

However, if you sell the TWGTX either before or after a transfer, that is a taxable event. If you want to do this so that you can buy more VGT that's up to you, although I suggest you ignore how well the funds have been doing recently. As the saying goes, past performance is no guarantee of future results, and that often is true and not just CYA lawyer talk.

Edit: I haven't looked at the prospectuses but the names of the funds suggest they have different investment goals so they probably aren't directly comparable anyway other than the expense ratios.

I was looking at buying into their Tech ETF (VGT) that has performed extremely well.

Is this the one you're referencing?
