Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) Holds $1.6 Trillion in Assets

The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) has accumulated $1.6 trillion in total assets, making it a popular choice for investors seeking exposure to large-cap U.S. companies. The ETF features a low expense ratio of 0.03%. In contrast, major stocks like Nvidia (NVDA) and Apple (AAPL) now dominate the S&P 500, with Nvidia comprising nearly 8% and Apple about 6.5% of the index. This concentration risk drives some investors toward alternatives such as the Invesco Equal Weight S&P 500 ETF (RSP), which allocates approximately 0.2% to each of the 500 companies, mitigating potential losses from underperforming stocks.
