The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) currently allocates over 8% of its holdings to NVIDIA, meaning a $500,000 investment includes about $40,400 in this single chipmaker. This concentration risk arises because VOO weights companies by market value, not investor preference, leading to significant exposure in a few top stocks like NVIDIA, Apple, and Microsoft. While VOO offers low fees, this concentration can cause larger portfolio swings, especially if investors also hold direct shares or tech funds. Investors should review their holdings to understand true exposure before rebalancing.
