Overview
iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) is a US Large Cap Blend fund, issued by iShares. It holds a respectable position among its peers, ranking #43 out of 458 tracked ETFs across all categories. The fund's overall grade is B+, reflecting a score of 74.7/100. With an expense ratio of just 0.03%, IVV is cost-effective, and its dividend yield of 0.74% provides a modest income stream for investors. The fund's price stands at $769.31, and its $869B in assets under management (AUM) suggests significant investor adoption, indicating a large and diverse investor base.
Over the past year, IVV has delivered a strong return of 21.41%, with a more modest 12.71% year-to-date performance. Looking at shorter-term horizons, the fund has shown resilience, with a 3.73% return in the last month and a 3.38% gain in the last three months. However, in the one-week period, the fund experienced a slight decline of -1.38%. This suggests a pattern of short-term volatility with some recovery in the longer term. The one-day return of +0.39% indicates that the fund can experience significant daily fluctuations, but the overall trend over longer periods remains positive.
IVV is labeled as having low volatility, with a beta of 1.00, indicating that it tends to move in line with the broader market. Its Sharpe ratio of 1.27 suggests that the fund provides a good risk-adjusted return, meaning that for the level of risk taken, the returns are relatively high. The maximum drawdown of -18.75% indicates that the fund has experienced a significant decline in value, but it has recovered from such declines in the past. This combination of low volatility, a positive Sharpe ratio, and a manageable drawdown suggests that IVV is suitable for investors seeking a balanced approach to market exposure, with the potential for steady growth and recovery from downturns.

IVV Liquidity, Domicile & Tax Treatment
Liquidity: Quoted bid/ask spread is 0.29% and average daily volume is 7.7M/day. Tighter spreads and higher volume mean lower round-trip trading costs; this is a live-market snapshot and can widen during volatile sessions. AUM of $869B provides ample scale, supporting tight spreads and issuer commitment to keep the fund open.
Domicile & tax treatment: IVV is a US-domiciled, SEC-registered ('40 Act) exchange-traded fund. Dividends and capital gains distributions are reported to US investors on Form 1099-DIV, and the fund is not subject to the PFIC reporting or UCITS-specific rules that apply to Irish- or Luxembourg-domiciled funds. Non-US investors should note that US-domiciled ETFs are generally subject to 30% US withholding tax on dividends (unless reduced by treaty) and to US estate tax exposure on the position — Irish-domiciled UCITS ETFs tracking the same index often avoid both, which is why non-US residents frequently prefer the UCITS equivalent where one exists. This is general information, not tax advice — consult a tax professional for your situation.
