Vanguard’s S&P 500 exchange-traded fund—so popular it’s known simply by its ticker symbol VOO—just topped $1 trillion in assets, the first ETF to mark that milestone. VOO, which launched in 2010, got there before two rivals with head starts: BlackRock ETF, which began trading in 2000, has $859 billion in assets and the ETF, the first U.S. ETF to debut in 1993, has $787 billion, according to ETF Database. VOO charges an expense ratio of 0.03% versus 0.09% for State Street ; the iShares ETF also charges 0.03%.

<p>SpaceX is going public on June 12 — nine days from now — at a valuation of approximately $1.75 trillion, which would make it the largest IPO in history. For ETF investors, the event is unavoidable: index rules will force an estimated $22–27 billion in automatic buying from funds tracking the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100. Here's which ETFs will hold SpaceX, when they'll buy, and what the IPO means for your portfolio.</p>

<p>The Vanguard fund crossed the threshold on Tuesday.</p>

The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF, the index investing pioneer's ‌flagship exchange-traded product, became the first in ‌the history of ETFs to reach and exceed $1 trillion in assets, ​the investment firm confirmed on Wednesday. The Vanguard fund hit this milestone, the latest record in the remarkable ascent of exchange-traded funds, on Tuesday, less than 18 months after ‌overtaking State Street ⁠Investment Management's SPDR S&P 500 ETF in assets, as investors looking for broad market ⁠exposure also sought out the lowest-cost funds. VOO levies a management fee of only 0.03%, compared to 0.09% for ​the State ​Street fund, which now ​is third in the ‌three-way race between those two firms and BlackRock Inc..

VOO officially crossed the line on Tuesday, Vanguard said. The ETF’s rivals from BlackRock and State Street have some catching up to do. BlackRock’s has $859 billion in assets under management and the the first U.S. ETF to debut back in 1993, has $785 billion, according to ETF Database.

When investors think of the S&P 500 funds, ETFs from Vanguard, iShares, and State Street tend to come to mind. Invesco offers an intriguing alternative.
