Description & usage
The Vanguard Extended Market ETF provides exposure to U.S. stocks outside the largest large-cap companies. It typically holds mid- and small-cap constituents, covering segments not included in pure S&P 500 funds. Performance reflects stock price movements and dividends, and the portfolio often has a different sector and style mix than large-cap benchmarks. The fund is used to represent the U.S. “extended” or “completion” market in a single ETF.
