Vanguard Dividend Appreciation Index
Seems like an interesting fund, does better than vfinx or vtsmx when the markets are down too. Anyone have any opinions?

Re: Equal weight index funds
All I'm wondering is there a better way to index. We all get so focused on tracking the S&P perhaps there is a better way to index that no one is talking about.

Re: Equal weight index funds
perhaps I'm missing something but the returns long term seem to be much much higher in the equal weight fund. RSP soundly beats vfinx long term on every chart I've seen. Expenses are higher yes but the returns seem to be worth it. But I'm not a professional of course

Reading that possibly equal weight beats cap weighted. Any opinions? Does vanguard offer them?

SEP IRA vs Roth Conversion
im 40 self employed 600k in SEP IRA, plan to wait until 65 or later to begin taking distributions. Am curious should I convert to a roth? Or perhaps start Doing a self employed 401k now and convert that to a roth? I guess it comes down to is it better to pay taxes now or later? Not really sure what ...

Dumb question….
If all the data points to small caps/mid caps significantly outperforming large caps over the very long term then why would someone in their 20s or even 30s who is a long long way from retiring want to be investing in anything else?

Re: Help me pick a Muni Fund
Vanguard limited might be a good choice. Looked and never saw it with a losing year. Pays better than then short term muni fund too
