- S&P 500 has delivered a 10% average annual return over the past 50 years, according to the article.
- SPYM (State Street® SPDR® Portfolio S&P 500® ETF) tracks the S&P 500 with an ultra‑low expense ratio of 0.02%.
- SPYM has posted an 11.01% average annual net asset value return since its inception in November 2005.
- Investment of $10,000 in SPYM today could grow to $80,768 after 20 years, $386,966 after 35 years, and $1 million after 45 years at the 11.01% return rate.
- SPYM’s top ten holdings include nine major technology stocks—Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft—and Berkshire Hathaway Class B, which accounts for 1.6% of the fund.
- SPYM is positioned as an easy, low‑fee core building block for long‑term growth portfolios.
Why it matters: Investors who allocate $10,000 to SPYM gain a low‑cost, diversified pathway to capture the S&P 500’s historic 11% returns, potentially reaching $1 million in 45 years; high‑fee funds lose competitive edge as expense ratios shrink the compounding effect. Meanwhile, the fund’s top holdings in tech giants like Nvidia, Apple, and Microsoft keep investors aligned with market leaders.
