ETF advice for portfolio
Topic Started: Sep 19 2017, 07:05 AM (63 Views)

Hello Guys,

I'm trying to set up a portfolio of ETFs for retirement (about 70% stock index and 30% bond index). I'm going with ETFs primarily because I want something that follows the market index and has low fees. ETF stock choice so far:Vanguard Total Stock Market Index (VTI). However, it seems to have most of its holdings in large cap companies. Do I need to have an ETF that follows the small and midsize cap companies to balance it out (i.e VXF)? Likewise, do I need an international ETF to further diversify my portfolio (i.e. VXUS)? B2B Advertising can generate awareness for your business, attract people to try your product for the first time. I'm also having problems finding the right bond ETF now. My research has led to some potential choices like Vanguard Total Bond Market (BND) and Vanguard Intermediate-Term Corporate Bond (VCIT). But I need more help in this area especially with the Fed just raising the interest rates again.

Thanks
