Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI)
Exchange Traded Funds
Recs
Solid total market etf.

The S&P 500 will recover eventually, and so VTI will as well.

Be the market.

cheap right now and possibly could get a little more cheaper...i think it's a buy

We won't be in the toilet forever. That's all I can say for VTI right now. Probably will go lower before it reverses course, but once it does this is a great vehicle to enjoy the ride. LOW cost too, which means more bread in your product when it happens.

A great time to buy into VTI --- at a 12-year low in the DJIA and S&P :D

This would be a good ETF to come back to each month and dollar cost average out. Along with its dividend, it tracks the total stock market which reduces risk.

Sell at strengh. (>46+)
Buy at weakness (<42)

This is the market, so by definition it can't outperform, but it can't underperform either, so it's a safe bet that the market will rebound and with no "drag" (fees etc.) should produce a near market return.

Unless you think we'll soon all be gathering nuts to horde in a post apocalyptic world, buying the market at these levels will pay off in the long term. Now, as the worst seems near, is when you 'buy low' to later 'sell high'. This is a great way to diversify your portfolio. While you get some poor performers, you get all the top performers. When someone says they own 'such and such' stock and made a killing, you can say you own it too, because you own them all! This ETF also has an ultra low expense ratio of .07%. You don't buy low at 52wk highs. Expect modest returns with this ETF, but overall long term gains. Be patient.

What can I say? Buffett, Boggle, can they be wrong? Value is the investing style that's applied by all the top guns in the field. If you know what I'm talking about, you'll know to keep a large long position here.

I think that the whole stock market is more powerful than all the large cap stocks in the s&p 500.

Total market always beats the S&P.

Part of diversified ETF portfolio.

This is a long term hold. From 1978 to 2008 the dow jones has had an average gain of 14%. I think you should buy this for your Roth IRA and not worry about bonds or securities or anything of the like. Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF is a good buy, and Vanguard is a good company with good managers.

more diversified

The Vanguard Total Stock Market IS the stock market... Unfortunately, with CAPS, we are rewarded only for beating the market (as we should be, as are our goals).
VTI is a good recommendation if you believe the US economy and US stock markets are on an ever increasing trend line.

During times of market uncertainty, idex funds are the best bet for some stability in an otherwise unstatble time. Idex funds also a good idea for the long term as they follow the trend of the market or sector the index follows. This can give an investor, new to the game or an old hat, a nice steady return over time.
