This Vanguard ETF Just Made Stock Market History. Here's Why It's Still a Fantastic Investment in 2026.
Overview
Vanguard's flagship S&P 500 exchange-traded fund (ETF) reached a big milestone on Wednesday. According to Bloomberg data, the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (NYSEMKT: VOO) just passed $1 trillion in net assets. This makes it the first ETF in history to pass the $1 trillion mark. The fund has received more than $69 billion of inflows so far in 2026, according to Bloomberg's analysis.
Having $1 trillion in assets doesn't mean the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF is better than or guaranteed to outperform other ETFs. But reaching $1 trillion of assets in the fund is an impressive achievement. It shows just how popular and essential this ETF has become for millions of everyday stock market investors.
