Fortune 500 companies prefer investments where they control the outcome, using private information unavailable to regular investors. For broad market exposure with less risk, the speaker recommends S&P 500 ETFs like SPY or VOO, which give you access to the 500 largest U.S. companies.
I did have some institutions and Fortune 500 companies. They invest in deals that they can control the outcome better. They really have access to information on not just public markets. A good way to invest in the S&P 500 is simply with an ETF. The SPY, the VOO, either of those. When you invest in the S&P 500, yeah, you have some risk, but it's relatively safe considering you're investing in the 500 biggest companies in the US. Huge companies, established companies.
