"John Bogle, who founded Vanguard Group, had a major influence on the index funds people own today. Indeed, Vanguard's exchange traded funds (ETFs) - and less directly, all ETFs - continue to bear his enduring imprint. His fans, known as "Bogle-heads," will often study Bogle's principles on investing in general and funds in particular."
"We can't know for certain, but we can study Bogle's concepts and pick out three Vanguard ETFs that would check the right boxes. To borrow some of Bogle's phrases, he would likely keep an eye out for " wide diversification," "clarity of strategy," "minimal costs," and "long-term focus." In addition, it's safe to say that Bogle would probably prefer ETFs that offer regular dividend payouts."
"It's the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF ( NYSEARCA:VOO), which effectively tracks the S&P 500 large-cap stock index. Certainly, you'll achieve broad diversification with the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF as it includes around 500 stocks across multiple business sectors. Whether it's consumer staples, consumer discretionary, utilities, technology, financials, or industrials, you'll get Bogle-approved multi-sector stock exposure with the VOO ETF."
