Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF: Buy, Sell, or Hold?

The broader stock market can be a loaded topic because the market is diverse, and different types of stocks go up and down at various times. Generally speaking, the S 500 is the most common benchmark. But as an index of 500 of America's most prominent companies, it leans toward large companies.

For example, did you know that the "Magnificent Seven" comprise about 28% of the S 500?

If you want to diversify your portfolio beyond the S 500, consider the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (NYSEMKT: VTI). I'll explain how it differs from the S 500, the best way to buy shares, and whether it's a buy, sell, or hold today.
