Vanguard Mid-Cap ETF (VO)

CAPS Rating:
****

Exchange Traded Fund

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Will slightly outperform S&P over the long term just because the S&P is big and slow and midcaps are, well, midcaps. :)

The Vanguard ETF that focusses on the general mid-cap market is a solid performer. It is especially attractive since its holdings are fairly even-handed - there are 428 companies held, and the top-ten-performing companies amount to 7% of the portfolio value. That even-handedness will prevent any sudden, drastic shift in NAV just because a few holdings run into a poor spell. Its stability should be its most important aspect for the next two years or so.

Mid-Caps will outperform over next two years as we move out of recession in second half.

Midcap beats large cap in most economic environments. Midcap is the sweet spot of american innovation. Large enough to be credible business, small enough to be flexible and innovate.
