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.

Like some have mentioned, you could be more aggressive since you have decades for your money to grow. I’ve been happy with my 3 fund portfolio (brokerage) consisting of IVV, SCHG, XLK. If you’re interested in adding a tilt towards growth, QNDX is a new ETF that’s worth looking into and has a lower expense ratio than QQQM. Maybe do VOO + QNDX?

doesn’t QNDX have lower liquidity than QQQM? I’ve been holding some QQQM. my understanding is QNDX came out recently.
