VOO Vanguard S&P 500

An ETF is a fund that trades like a stock and holds a basket. The price is the fund's own share price.

How to read this page

The large figure is the latest price this feed returned. The line under it is the move since the prior close, unless it says 24h. The chart below is closing prices only. Current trends compare this price with its own past. The projection block draws that past forward in three ways, and none of them is a target or a recommendation. News is one sentence in our words for the date on the masthead. Filings appear only when this is a U.S. company.

Price history

See more lengthens the window from the last thirty closes to a year, five years, or the longest free record. Each point is the last print of that session. Days the market was shut are missing, so a weekend is a gap, not a flat day. High close and low close are the highest and lowest of those session closes. A wild hour that ended near where it began will not show. Change in this view is the last close against the first close in the window. That is a different question from the move at the top of the page.

Current trends

An average is the typical close over that many sessions. Above it, the recent stretch has been stronger than that typical close. Below it, weaker. One-month, three-month, and one-year momentum are only the percent change across those stretches. Volatility turns the size of the recent daily bumps into a yearly rate, so a jumpy name and a calm one can be compared. A high number means bumpier days. It does not point up or down, and none of these figures says what happens next.

  • 50-day average 705.45

    The average close over the last 50 trading days is 705.45. The latest close sits below that line, so this shorter trend has been pointing down.

  • 200-day average 670.47

    The average close over the last 200 trading days is 670.47. The latest close sits above that line, so this longer trend has been pointing up.

  • 1-month momentum −2.29%

    Over about the last month of trading, the price is lower by −2.29%.

  • 3-month momentum −2.49%

    Over about the last three months, the price is lower by −2.49%.

  • 1-year momentum +10.57%

    Over about the last year of trading, the price is higher by +10.57%.

  • Volatility +9.92%

    Day-to-day swings over the last quarter of trading work out to about +9.92% a year. A higher number means bumpier days.

Projections

Model-based estimate, not financial advice.

Three questions, answered only from this record. The trend line fits a straight line to the last ninety closes and keeps drawing it, about a month ahead and about a year ahead. It repeats the recent slope. It does not know a war, an earnings day, or a change of mind. The typical range uses this asset’s own recent bumps: about two-thirds of similar past stretches landed inside a band this wide, if the future happens to rhyme with the past, which it often does not. The week-of-year note averages what happened around this same calendar date in earlier years. Some of those years rose and some fell. A quiet past can be followed by a violent one.

Trend line. Extended forward, the recent slope lands near 718.06 in about a month and 781.56 in about a year. It only repeats the last 90 closes.

Typical range. From this asset's own recent swings, a typical one-month band is 671.81 – 711.40, and a typical one-year band is 626.04 – 763.41.

Same weeks in past years. Around this same week of the year, across 4 earlier years in this record, the price changed +0.22% on average from the week before. Some of those years rose and some fell.

How we figured this. The trend line is a straight line fitted to the last 90 closing prices and drawn forward. The range uses this asset's own recent day-to-day swings: about two-thirds of similar past stretches landed inside a band this wide, if the future happens to rhyme with the past, which it often does not. The week-of-year note only averages what happened around this same calendar date in earlier years. None of this uses analyst targets or paid forecasts.

GDELT is limiting requests right now, and the backup news feeds had nothing for this date. Prices are still shown.

SEC filings

These are documents a U.S. company sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission: an annual report, a quarterly report, or a form for a sale of stock or a change in who owns it. We name the form and the date. The link opens the filing at EDGAR. We do not copy it. An index, a coin, or a futures contract is not a company, so this block stays empty for those.

This ticker is not in the SEC's company list, so there are no EDGAR filings to show.
