Btw, Vanguard is introducing small-cap growth and small-cap value index funds within a few months. They are also introducing a mid-cap index fund that tracks the S&P Midcap 400 at the same time. More information follows...

Also the S&P Midcap 400 can be bought just like the SPiDeRs on the American Exchange. The ticker symbol is MDY, and I believe they are called "MIDDIES".

Dipy.
