FSKAX vs VTI
Fidelity Total Market Index Fund against Vanguard Morningstar Total Stock Market ETF: 4 years of returns, risk and today’s technical read, from Kavout’s own data.
VTI did better over the period: $1,000 invested on October 28, 2022 would be worth $2,017, versus $1,997 for FSKAX, a 2.0 percentage-point advantage. VTI also led over three years (+81.9% versus +80.0%), six months (+6.5% versus +6.4%), YTD (+12.2% versus +12.1%), and one year (+14.7% versus +13.5%). The funds were nearly identical in risk: both had 12.9% volatility over the last 12 months, while VTI’s worst drawdown was -19.3% versus -19.4% for FSKAX. Their daily moves were highly correlated at 0.978, and the typical monthly performance gap was only 0.04 points. VTI’s modest edge likely reflects its lower 0.03% expense ratio and implementation differences, but the practical difference was small.
