  • VTI vs. VOO: Impact of SpaceX IPO on Vanguard ETFs
    June 6, 2026, 3:44 PM EDT. SpaceX's $75 billion IPO, valuing it at $1.77 trillion, will influence ETFs like Vanguard's S&P 500 ETF (VOO) and Total Stock Market ETF (VTI). SpaceX cannot join the S&P 500 for at least 12 months post-IPO, barring VOO from immediate inclusion. VTI tracks a broader index and will likely buy SpaceX shares soon after the IPO. Both ETFs have ultra-low 0.03% expense ratios, but VTI includes about 3,500 stocks versus VOO's 500. Consequently, VTI is poised to hold more SpaceX stock initially, while VOO requires index inclusion before purchasing. This dynamic underscores differences in index strategies and their impact on exposure to new megacap listings like SpaceX.
