Hi, this might be a noob question but I cannot have a straight answer online so I’m posting here. I have an IRA vanguard account and I buy VTI/VXUS for it. My partner also wants to open an IRA account but vanguard signing up is broken. She went with Fidelity instead. What are the equivalents of VTI, VXUS for Fidelity? So far I have FSKAX = VTI ? Also FNILX is apparently a good index fund? Not very familiar, please help 🙏
You should be able to buy VTI/VXUS from Fidelity too.
It says I have to pay some transactions fee so I was hesitant
Just what Google said above. You can Vanguard ETFs from any brokerage including Fidelity. VTSAX and VTI are same underlying stocks. One is mutual fund and the other one is ETF.
FZROX = FSKAX = VTSAX/VTI. FZROX is zero fees.
thanks 🙏
Please don’t rely on this forum for exact investment advice. You can buy VTI in Fidelity, and from what I know there are no extra fees for that, but confirm with Fidelity. As to underlying stocks in different indexes, that info is publicly available. For ira you may not care if you buy mutual fund or etf. But for a taxable account, yearly tax implications may be different.
Yes the cost basis calculation method will be different btw mutual fund and etf.
Don’t do FZROX or any of the zero funds in taxable, not portable.

The equivalent of VTI/VXUS at Fidelity is still VTI/VXUS. They are ETFs and are portable and commission-free at all the major brokerages. It is the 5-character symbols ending in X (mutual funds) that are not portable and/or charged fees when you don’t buy their own.
I don’t know the ticker But they have it listed on the website. And you can use ETFDB website to compare the holdings of ETFs
