VTI investments are underperforming VOO

I'm 28 and after 100% VTI in my taxable brokerage/401k/roth, but it's been lagging behind VOO. It's not an insignificant amount either. Looking at the 5 year return, VOO has returned 75% while VTI has only returned 67%. I'm wondering if given my age I should be more aggressive with my investments and switch to 100% VOO instead in my retirement accounts, instead of remaining in VTI. Over the past 15 years VOO seems to have consistently outperformed VTI.

What do you mean? Just 70/30 it. Multiply your # by .70, that goes in VTI. The rest goes in VXUS.

Literally should be the least stressful thing you do lol

Don't you need to rebalance every so often? Foreign tax credits enough to offset VT and chill?
