And that\u2019s without considering the trading fees involved or that the index weighs the companies based on their market capitalisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, accurately duplicating the index weighting and maintaining that weighting as the market changes daily would be a huge hassle for any individual investor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why investing in the S&amp;P 500 via an ETF might be a more practical, cost-efficient option.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 2: Select an ETF<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>ETFs<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>ETFs seek to replicate the performance of an index, which in this case, is the S&amp;P 500, by buying and selling the shares within it in relation to their respective market capitalisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the most popular S&amp;P 500 ETFs include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (<a href=\"https:\/\/app.syfe.com\/?link=https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/goto%2FStock%3FisAt%3Dtrue%26isLoginRequired%3Dtrue%26securityId%3DVOO%3AUS&amp;apn=com.syfe&amp;ofl=https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/trade\/&amp;isi=1497156434&amp;ibi=com.syfe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NYSEARCA: VOO<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (<a href=\"https:\/\/app.syfe.com\/?link=https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/goto%2FStock%3FisAt%3Dtrue%26isLoginRequired%3Dtrue%26securityId%3DSPY%3AUS&amp;apn=com.syfe&amp;ofl=https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/trade\/&amp;isi=1497156434&amp;ibi=com.syfe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NYSEARCA: SPY<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF (<a href=\"https:\/\/app.syfe.com\/?link=https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/goto%2FStock%3FisAt%3Dtrue%26isLoginRequired%3Dtrue%26securityId%3DIVV%3AUS&amp;apn=com.syfe&amp;ofl=https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/trade\/&amp;isi=1497156434&amp;ibi=com.syfe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NYSEARCA: IVV<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SPDR Portfolio S&amp;P 500 ETF (<a href=\"https:\/\/app.syfe.com\/?link=https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/goto%2FStock%3FisAt%3Dtrue%26isLoginRequired%3Dtrue%26securityId%3DSPLG%3AUS&amp;apn=com.syfe&amp;ofl=https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/trade\/&amp;isi=1497156434&amp;ibi=com.syfe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NYSEARCA: SPLG<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>If these names sound foreign or if you\u2019re wondering how these funds vary, check out our guide that dives into the key differences between these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.syfe.com\/magazine\/voo-vs-spy-vs-ivv-vs-splg-whats-the-best-sp-500-etf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">S&amp;P 500 ETFs<\/a> and which one may best suit your investment goals. <\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"how-to-choose-an-S&amp;P-500-ETF-for-Singaporeans\"><strong><em><mark style=\"background-color:#99b2c1\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Tip: how to choose an S&amp;P 500 ETF for Singaporeans<\/mark><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Liquidity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, while most S&amp;P 500 ETFs perform similarly, the funds diverge in terms of liquidity and expense ratios (more on this later).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Liquidity refers to the ability to quickly buy or sell the ETF, and a higher average daily trading volume indicates higher liquidity.
