3 Total Stock Market ETFs to Buy With $500 and Hold Forever

2026's major rotation away from U.S. tech and toward other stock market sectors should provide a good lesson for investors. Sometimes, it pays to own the whole market instead of trying to pick winners and losers. Sure, you'll end up owning some underperformers, but you'll also own the leaders. That makes the entire ride smoother and helps you capture the whole U.S. economic growth story.
Three of the best total U.S. stock market exchange-traded funds (ETFs) share two important traits -- they're ultra-cheap (each has an expense ratio of just 0.03%) and they're incredibly diversified. That makes them perfect to buy and hold forever.
