If I want to invest in an S&P 500 ETF from Singapore, which one should I choose?
1) Are both pretty much the same in tracking?
2) Would there be a difference in the expense?
3) What other considerations would there be? Thanks.

Hi there,
Yes, both of the ETFs, track the S&P. The TER for SPDR is higher compared the VOO. If you look at the AUM for the underlying funds, VOO is higher compared to SPDR. The price per unit is also lower comparitively. You can also take a look at VUAG, if you are looking into a cost efficient ETF.
At the end of the day, you would want the maximum benefit to your dollar invested, so the ETF that can yield you more units would be the best choice for yourself.
I hope i was able to shed some insight on your situation!

1) See below:
2) VOO US expense ratio is 0,030% while SPY US expense ratio is 0.095%
3) I look at many other things such as the following:
How has the NAV been trending since inception?
How has the fund been performing quarter on quarter since inception?
How has the dividend been trending since inception?
How has the fund size been growing?
What are your probabilities to make/lose money?
What are your average (+) and (-) returns?
Is your fund outperforming or underperforming the benchmark? (For Actively Managed Funds)
You can find a list of charts that I have done to answer the above questions. They can be found via this link: https://dl.orangedox.com/fund-analysis-pdfs
Hope it helps.
