VOO ETF Shatters Records: August 26, 2025 Marks Historic Trading Volume Surge
Vanguard's flagship S&P 500 ETF just rewrote the rulebook—again.
Massive institutional inflows flooded VOO throughout Tuesday's session, pushing daily volume 47% above its 30-day average. The ETF's underlying holdings—tech giants and blue-chip stalwarts—are riding an AI-driven earnings wave that's leaving traditional active managers in the dust.
Retail investors piled in alongside hedge funds, creating a rare convergence of momentum strategies. VOO's razor-thin 0.03% expense ratio continues to drain assets from pricier competitors—because why pay for underperformance?
This isn't just another rally—it's a structural shift toward passive dominance. Wall Street's stock-pickers might want to update their resumes.
