The Vanguard Utilities ETF has outperformed the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite in 2024 with a total return of 13.9%, offering an opportunity to invest in the utility sector with its low 0.1% expense ratio. Despite being one of the smallest S&P 500 sectors, utilities have shown stability through steady cash flow and high yields, making them an attractive option for risk-averse investors looking for passive income. While the Vanguard Utilities ETF yields 3.3%, its price-to-earnings ratio of 22.1 and inexpensive valuation make it a valuable investment, especially in comparison to other sectors like Consumer Staples and Energy ETFs.
