Expense Ratios and Returns: VUG and VONG have similar expense ratios and dividend yields, with VUG showing slightly stronger recent returns, while VONG offers broader diversification and lower volatility due to its larger number of holdings.

Liquidity Considerations: VUG's larger assets under management (AUM) may provide greater liquidity, making it easier for investors to buy and sell, which is an important factor for those considering these similar investment options.
