VTI

Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) provides exposure to the entire U.S. equity market, investing in thousands of publicly traded companies across large‑cap, mid‑cap, and small‑cap segments and covering all major sectors. The fund tracks the CRSP US Total Market Index and uses a passively managed, market‑capitalization‑weighted approach to replicate the index’s composition. Because it offers broad diversification in a single vehicle, VTI is suitable as a core holding for long‑term investors seeking comprehensive U.S. stock market exposure within a low‑maintenance, buy‑and‑hold portfolio.
