Dipy:
I subscribe to Wiener's Vanguard newsletter and think it's worth the money if you have several Vanguard funds. His insight and track record on the Van. funds has been quite good and on his recommendation I've gotten into and out of several Van. funds at just about the right time. But you are correct that he is no fan of the Van. index funds, for reasons I don't understand. He lists both Total Stock Market and Extended Market as a "sell" and Index 500 as a "hold." I totally fail to grasp his reasoning as his own performance charts consistently show these to be among Van.'s best performers. It may be, as Brinker says, that index funds are "no brainers." Wiener may be thinking his subscribers don't need his newsletter if all he does is recommend index funds. (Come to think of it, maybe we don't!)
