What company is bigger than Vanguard?
Vanguard is the world's second-largest investment company or brokerage firm, offering a range of active and passive options, as well as a competitive fee structure and other attractive selling points. BlackRock, Inc. is the world's largest investment firm and asset manager.
The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) seeks to track the performance of the S&P 500 index, which is a cap-weighted basket of the largest publicly traded companies in the U.S. SPY is the oldest ETF listed on a U.S. exchange and is the largest ETF as measured by AUM.
| Symbol | Name | Expense Ratio |
|---|---|---|
| PBDC | Putnam BDC Income ETF | 6.79% |
| YYY | Amplify High Income ETF | 4.60% |
| RTAI | Rareview Tax Advantaged Income ETF | 3.78% |
| RDFI | Collaborative Investment Series Trust Rareview Dynamic Fixed Income Fund | 3.69% |
There are many ways an ETF can stray from its intended index. That tracking error can be a cost to investors. Indexes do not hold cash but ETFs do, so a certain amount of tracking error in an ETF is expected. Fund managers generally hold some cash in a fund to pay administrative expenses and management fees.
Trading volume indicates the liquidity and number of investors. The higher the trading volume, better the liquidity of the fund. Among large-cap ETFs, Nippon India ETF Nifty 50 BeES has the highest 1-year average trading volume of Rs. 62.36 crore followed by SBI Nifty 50 ETF with Rs.
