In 2025, stock market performance has been lackluster due to tariff and recession concerns, prompting many investors to turn to exchange-traded funds (ETFs) for stability. The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) has emerged as a leader in this space, attracting over $60 billion in inflows already this year. As the U.S. ETF market hit $400 billion, VOO's low-cost structure and reliable returns have made it a favorite among investors, suggesting a potential shift away from individual stocks in favor of this ETF.
When it comes to low-cost ETFs, Vanguard has set a gold standard. The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) has become the core portfolio of several investors.
According to an update from Eric Balchunas, the U.S. ETF market has reached $400 billion year-to-date as of mid-May 2025, with Vanguard VOO leading the charge.
