The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF Is Magnificent. These Investments Could Be Even Better.
One of these funds has averaged annual gains of 25% over the past decade.
Overview
The Motley Fool has numerous articles recommending simple, low-fee S&P 500 index funds as great investments for most people. And they are great investments. They're not perfect, though, and there are some other solid funds you might want to consider instead. Here's a look at a few.

You can do quite well with just, say, the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (NYSEMKT: VOO). It's rather concentrated, though, with a recent 39% of its assets invested in just its top 10 holdings. Its top four holdings alone (as of May 31) -- Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon -- made up 24% of the fund's value. That's not a problem if you want much of your money in giant tech stocks.
