CleaRank AI analysis of VOO
The score, the reasoning behind it, and what could move the price next.
VOO shows a mixed trend. The price of $701.61 sits 0.71% below its 50-day average of $706.62, yet it stands 5.24% above its 200-day average of $666.69. Near the top of its 52-week range, the price is 2.35% below the high of $718.47 and 21.29% above the low of $578.46. The 50-day average is 5.99% above the 200-day, even though the price has dipped beneath the shorter average.
The price is up over each of these periods: 1.20% over the past month, 2.70% over the past three months and 15.51% over the past year. The 14-day RSI of 43.7 is in the neutral zone, and the MACD line is positive.
- Keep an eye on the two levels closest to the price: the 50-day SMA at $706.62 overhead and the 200-day SMA at $666.69 underneath.
- A 14-day RSI of 43.7 places momentum in the neutral zone, and the MACD line is positive. Readings above 70 or below 30 would signal stretched momentum.
- Costs compound: at 0.03% a year, VOO charges $3.00 on every $10,000 invested.
VOO's trend is mixed. The price sits above its 200-day average of $666.69 but below its 50-day average of $706.62. Should the price close above the 50-day, both signals would point up; a close below the 200-day would push both down. For now the nearest support is the 200-day SMA at $666.69, and the nearest resistance is the 50-day SMA at $706.62.

Long-term scenarios
Thousands of simulated paths from the price history. A range of outcomes, not a forecast.
Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in VOO, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 10-year Monte Carlo simulation projects that a $10,000 investment in VOO today could grow to about $23,423 by 2036 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $48,683 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $11,270 (above the amount invested: over ten years most simulated paths of a rising, moderately volatile asset end higher). The simulation models price only; at today's 1.06% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
VOO 2030 Scenarios (Monte Carlo)
The same simulation in share prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $986 for VOO by 2030 in the base case, from $702 today (1.4x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $621. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on VOO's historical return distribution, not price targets, and they assume no dividends are reinvested.
| Year | 10th percentile | Base case | 90th percentile | range base today |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 | $606 | $764 | $963 | |
| 2028 | $600 | $832 | $1,154 | |
| 2029 | $607 | $906 | $1,352 | |
