The Schwab U.S. Large-Cap ETF (SCHX) is recommended as a buy due to its exposure to accelerating AI-driven capital expenditures and earnings growth among mega-cap and infrastructure companies. SCHX offers broader diversification with 750 holdings compared to SPY, capturing growth beyond the largest tech stocks (Mag 7) and has outperformed the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) over the past decade. It features a low expense ratio of 0.03% and quarterly rebalancing to maintain alignment with high-quality large-cap firms and evolving market trends. While it lacks a unique defensive advantage, SCHX is a practical buy-and-hold option expected to deliver returns between SPY and VTI over time.
