About VEXMX

Vanguard Extended Market Index Fund Investor Shares is a mutual fund designed to track the performance of the S&P Completion Index, which includes U.S. equities outside those found in the S&P 500. This fund primarily invests in a diversified mix of small- and mid-capitalization stocks, spanning various sectors and industries across the U.S. equity market. As a result, it serves as a comprehensive complement to large-cap-focused portfolios, offering broad exposure to companies that represent roughly a quarter of the total U.S. market capitalization. Notable for its low expense ratio and low portfolio turnover, the fund provides investors with cost-effective and efficient access to a wide array of growth opportunities in the small- and mid-cap segments. Through its market-cap-weighted approach, it mirrors the market's overall valuation perspective, promoting diversification and reducing concentration risk. The fund’s structure makes it a valuable tool for achieving a more complete representation of the U.S. equity landscape by filling in gaps left by traditional large-cap benchmarks.
