Our read on STXF
BThe off-brand S&P 500: the same 500-biggest-US-companies idea, a different index underneath, 0.05% a year. Strive launched it in 2022, and it sits in the upper half of its 500-index peer group.
The Fund seeks to track the total return of an index composed of U.S.-listed large-cap equity securities.
Why people hold it
- 0.05% a year, about a third of what the typical 500-stock index fund in its peer group charges. Cheap is the whole pitch.
- It tracks its own 500-stock US large-cap index rather than the S&P 500, so the shape of the exposure is familiar without doubling up on the single most crowded benchmark.
- Plain mechanics, no gimmicks: passive, fully US large-cap, quarterly distributions, a billion-dollar asset base, and upper-half standing among 500-index wrappers.
Worth knowing
- VOO and IVV still undercut it at 0.03%, and STXF is only moderately traded, so spreads can widen when markets move fast.
- Live since 2022, so the track record covers one market era, not several, and the issuer's fund family is young.
- US only, large caps only. No small caps, nothing overseas, and no bonds in the mix.
