I compare low cost ETFs to low cost S&P 500 mutual funds Which one is the best low-cost index mutual fund or low-cost ETF? Fidelity FXAIX S&P 500 mutual fund, Vanguard VFIAX, VOO or Schwab SWPPX? Which low cost S&P 500 index fund. is best?
Are mutual funds more tax-efficient than index stock ETFs? Not all mutual funds are created equally. I show how Vanguard mutual funds are superior to other mutual funds with regard to tax efficiency.
Other stock mutual funds tend to leak some taxable distributions unlike Vanguard mutual funds.
I look at the history of Vanguard and how a tax loophole launched the low cost index mutual fund revolution and eventually led to ETFs.
