Is IVV a mutual fund?
IVV (iShares Core S&P 500 ETF) is not a mutual fund, but rather an exchange-traded fund (ETF). It is designed to track the performance of the S&P 500 Index, which represents the performance of the 500 largest publicly traded companies in the United States. IVV offers investors a low-cost and convenient way to gain exposure to the broad U.S. stock market, as it can be bought and sold on stock exchanges throughout the trading day.
