The S&P 500 is an *index* -- just an on-paper listing of 500(ish) of the largest US stocks. They make sure all sectors of the market are represented, and they weight the stocks by market cap. S&P 500 funds just copy what that index says. There are MANY S&P 500 index funds. I don't know how many, but I assume without checking that there are well over 100 of them. For the most part, it doesn't matter which you choose because their holdings will be nearly identical, their performance will be nearly identical. The list (off the top of my head) of why you might care: 1. Expense ratios. These basically get subtracted from your return each year. SPY has 0.09%, VOO has 0.03%, so in theory, VOO should outperform SPY by 0.06% each year. But there's so much random noise because maybe they rebalance on a slightly different schedule, on different days, etc. that it's almost irrelevant for such low expense ratios. It is something to look out for if some financial advisor dude is pushing an S&P 500 index fund with like 0.7% expense ratios though, because that's insane. 2. ETF vs mutual fund. Again basically the same performance, but one might prefer one to another. 3. if mutual fund, are there trade fees? For instance, I have Schwab. I cannot trade Vanguard's S&P 500 mutual fund (VFIAX) for free. I can Schwab's S&P 500 mutual fund (SWPPX) for free though. So if I wanted mutual fund over ETF, SWPPX would be the one for me. If I didn't care about mutual funds, I could buy any ETF for zero trade fees, so IVV, VOO, whatever, all fine. 4. If I want to play options games like selling covered calls on my S&P 500 fund holdings, I'd want SPY, full stop. VTI is also an index fund, but it's a different index. Instead of including 500 of the largest US stocks spread across all market sectors, it has several thousand US stocks spread across all market sectors. But since it is also weighted by market cap, that means those 500 largest that comprise the S&P 500 also make up the majority of this other index VTI uses... three fourths? I'd have to look, but that's a reasonable ballpark. And the several thousand smaller companies tend to follow the same trends as those 500 largest ones, so their returns are... not identical, but nearly identical. In theory, VTI will outperform if small cap companies outperform those mega-giant companies, and VOO would outperform if those giants outperform smaller companies. But in practice, it's mostly just all cancelled out over the long term. TL;DR: VOO or VTI, doesn't matter.

When I started playing at the casino, the rules were SPY at ATH, stocks also at ATH. Now SPY is ATH, stocks are 10 to 25% off ATH. Can someone let me know when the managers updated the player code?

Thanks for your submission! r/WallStreetBets is ultimately a community about making money through trading, and our conversations should shift around that. Politics are fundamentally intertwined with making money, and political actions almost always have an impact on financial markets. Still, we need to make sure that when we have these discussions, we're explicitly calling out the financial impacts of the politics we're discussing. Otherwise, the conversation can very easily veer off into flamewars and boring, unproductive, discussion. Here's an example of a political comment that doesn't offer any value: * "I hate this new green policy from the Biden administration. What a fucking idiot" Now compare it to this: * "I hate this new green policy from the Biden administration. It threatens the profit margins of oil companies because they will need to expand their OpEx. I have calls on Shell that are going to get decimated at open." The latter is significantly more interesting and offers a great jumping point into market related discussion. Put succinctly: If you choose to start or engage in arguments about libtards or Nazis instead of making fun of their bad SPY long then you're in the wrong place and we'll show you the door. If you're not sure if your content is political, it probably is, and there's probably a better way to post it without making things weird. --- All that being said, we are here to help. We want to make it as easy as possible for you to post to our community. We have to balance this with making the subreddit interesting for our readers.

Mentions:#SPY

To answer your question, if am reading the picture well, it's a ORB setup. From 9.30 to 10am, you just mark the High and Low in that period. then between 10 and 11, if it breaks the high, you buy a call and with a profit target (and maybe stop loss) of 30%. SPY has enough interest and IV that these moves are possible and happen often and very quickly. If it doesn't break that high, you don't buy anything. In a comment further down, OP said they do calls only, but the reverse would be true as well but you would be buying puts when it breaks the low. And yes, I suspect there are definitely shills for that platform as well.

SPY for sure if you ever plan to use options strategies such as covered calls, plus the spread on the equities market is going to be tighter as well. Really both expense ratios are rock bottom. If you look at the difference in returns even over a long horizon its only a few hundredths of a percentage better for VOO, which is probably made up for by the better spread on SPY.

This suggests sustained buying interest and positive market sentiment. The price has consistently remained above its key moving averages, indicating robust momentum. The current price of 687.01 is near its 52-week high, suggesting strong bullish sentiment. A breakout above the recent peak around 691.65, as per ChartScanner.AI analysis, could signal further upward movement. Conversely, a dip to the 650-660 range could present a buying opportunity, as per ChartScanner.AI analysis, representing a retest of previous support.

Kind of the same way you take 500 and go to 90k, a series of insanely risky trades so that you lose 80-90% almost immediately on the wrong day, but gain 10-30% most of the time. OP is literally just playing a pretty bad slot machine with shit like 0dte SPY trades, then being shocked when they eventually lost everything. They deserve every new all time high with their 'smart' decisions (not random luck) and got screwed by 'bullshit' every time they lost money.

Couple things! Finviz as my resource to start my research, they have a great news watch lists. From there, start looking into the sector that it applies to, GPT works great here. Ask about the changes that have been occurring in the industry (any new laws, any big swings in major players, etc). From there, I use the RSI of SPY for that week (since I rarely have the time to stare at the screen every minute observing the changes). If the RSI is below 40, call, above 65, put. Most importantly, ALWAYS TAKE THE 20% GAIN. Sure you miss out on some meat, but Id rather be well fed on a 1 day gamble than roast myself later. Rinse and repeat

Look up SPAN margin, which describes some of the methodology for calculating Portfolio Margin. As far as I can tell, SPAN margin calculations are proprietary and vary a bit from broker to broker. With PM, buying power and maintenance balances are calculated based on daily risk to your whole portfolio, not position by position as with RegT margin. SPAN calculates more realistic and less conservative buying power limits, and is less restrictive on low volatility indices like SPX, SPY, etc. I'm fortunate in that I've not really tested this, but I believe that PM will provide an edge in a volatility event like a market crash -- a PM account gives you more cushion against BP restrictions and thus more freedom to maneuver when you might need it the most.

Mentions:#SPY#BP

I Agree. VOO and SPY buy the same stocks.  VOO has a slightly lower expense ratio so you make like .1 % more per year. When you are looking at 9%+ returns Either one is a good choice.  EFT’s sell instantly verses mutual funds which take an extra day or two. So either one is a good choice. 

Mentions:#VOO#SPY

They track the exact same index. Functionally identical, SPY has an expense ratio of .09% and VOO is .03%. Thus the slight edge to VOO, IVV, and SPYM. SPYM is .02% but lower trading volume and wider price spreads. In other words be careful with SPYM market orders, better to use limit order to be safe.

Yes and yes, SPY would have a beta of 1.00.

Real estate tends to underperform the SPY. It's also not as "cheap" as it looks at first glance -- expect to spend \~1.5% of the homes value in repairs / maintenance per annum. This is lower for new homes / new builds (but also more expensive). Throw in the mortgage / interest on that and your returns are not actually that great. Real estate is good for stability - it tends to be less volatile than the stock market (but also lower returns). It's great if you want a long term place to live, stability in your life on that front, etc -- but from a financial perspective there are better options. You likely won't find anything better than the S&P500 over the long term.

If the market wasnt manipulated against its participants, there would be billionare-made option traders. But it doesnt work that way. I can see behind the scenes, i work in institutional trading. Whenever a large number of market orders fill - the market resides. Whenever an option is bought at market, the price is set up to where the client gets the worst deal possible, or just misses the mark entirely (thus cancelling the order). The exchanges themselves have become a black hole of information that very few can comprehend. But it all leads down a path of lost money for the masses. Long term holders make money becouse the market floats upwards due to inflation. Neither SPY, VOO, QQQ kept up with inflation though. Cost of food energy and living in general is up 300% over 3 years regardless of what the data shows. Doesnt take a genuis to see a house worth 60k 4 years ago is worth 300k today.

Look to ETFs. ETFs are a diversified fund. There is a small fee for using them. QQQ and SPY for safer plays. You can even just look what stocks are in these ETFs and copy them purchasing the stocks directly to avoid the fee. It comes down to your risk profile and time window. If you have a long time window, I’d routinely just buy in set intervals stocks like Microsoft, NVDA, Cummins, WM, etc. and set it and forget it. Maybe buying a little extra on dips. Personally, I make some riskier plays, but also value invest. I sold my PLTR, NVDA, IONQ, and AMD for some decent gains, now I am waiting for a larger pullback in the “AI” market to buy back in. I recently purchased, Chipotle and I am up 20% on that, but may sell soon and move the position to Duolingo. I also purchased KVUE at 16.50 (Tylenol) as the company is doing well, but the stock is down on bad press and another company is looking to purchase it at $20 a share essentially just handing 30% gains to stock holders if the deal goes through. Most of my long term stocks are REITs I purchased extremely cheap during the COVID crash.

If you put $100 into SPY at the beginning of 2025, you'd be up almost $17. Take that lesson into 2026 when you consider options and let it ride!

Theoretically the new age algos might be shifting to silver as a test of real world power shifting. Started with mid caps, got those bound up, then moved into the larger picture ETFs, eventually SPY. Metals is a significant shift becouse its real. China wants this to happen to inflate the value while its banned. The trade war goes deep, and i think china seeks to capitilize here. Controlling the prics of stocks on companies? Meh. Controlling the price of silver indirectly via the stock market amongst other metals? Now thats real, tangible power. If they can do it, they win the trade war.

Mentions:#SPY

PM *can* help in situations like this, since it nets risk across positions instead of treating each leg separately—especially with SPY where correlations are high. That said, it cuts both ways: margin relief is nice, but losses can accelerate fast if the book moves against you. It really depends on your deltas, strikes, and how concentrated the short calls are. What are the expirations and how directional is your current exposure?
