Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

FTECAFidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF

VOOAVanguard S&P 500 ETF

In short

FTEC Fidelity's tech sleeve runs 0.08% a year and holds about 300 names, tracking an MSCI index that reaches from mega-cap chipmakers down into small-cap software. Cheap beta on the whole US tech stack, not just the giants.

VOO Not a standalone ETF but a share class of Vanguard's flagship 500 Index Fund: the same roughly 500 large US companies, 0.03% a year, in a wrapper you can trade all day.

Stated mandate

FTEC Seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the performance of the MSCI USA IMI Information Technology Index.

VOO The fund invests in stocks represented by the S&P 500 Index and seeks to closely track that index's return as a measure of overall U.S. stock performance.

Why people hold it

  • FTEC At 0.08%, it ties the cheapest fund in its broad-tech group and undercuts VGT's 0.09%, against a cohort median of 0.40%. On a sector sleeve, that gap compounds quietly.
  • The MSCI USA IMI benchmark covers large, mid and small cap US tech, so the roughly 300 holdings stretch past the mega-cap tier alone.msci.com
  • Trading since 2013 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it sits in the top quartile of its broad technology peer group.
  • VOO 0.03% a year against a 0.15% median for S&P 500 trackers. On a fund this size, that fee gap is the whole product.
  • Holds the index outright, all roughly 500 names, and its tracking record sits among the tightest in the S&P 500 group.vanguard.com
  • One of the most actively traded ETFs in the market, which tends to keep the cost of getting in and out small.
  • It is the ETF share class of Vanguard's 500 Index Fund, and Vanguard is owned by its own funds, so no outside parent takes a cut.vanguard.comsec.gov

Worth knowing

  • FTEC Membership follows GICS Information Technology, so several household-name tech businesses classified into other sectors never show up here.msci.com
  • One sector, one story: tech moves harder than the broad market in both directions, and roughly 300 names does not soften that.
  • Distributions arrive quarterly, and a growth-heavy sector index is not built around payouts.
  • VOO Large US companies only, weighted by size, so the biggest few names carry the most weight and drive much of the move.spglobal.com
  • Membership is not purely mechanical: an S&P index committee decides which companies come in and go out.spglobal.com
  • SPYM tracks the same index for 0.02%. A rounding error for most, but real if cost is your only tiebreaker.
