GNU Free Documentation License Better to invest in Vanguard 500 Stock Index Fund or Total Stock Market Index Fund? Q. I am a young investor interested in investing in a roth IRA and am interested in the Vanguard family. Currently my IRA is with a bank with a very low interest rate. I have researching different funds and like Vanguards no load index funds. Which is better to invest in?? 1. Vanguard 500 Stock Index Fund 2. Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund Asked by Tance G - Mon Mar 9 13:18:44 2009 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments A. The question is actually a very interesting question. Here is why. Both indexes are capitalization weighted. What that means to you the investor is that both on a market value basis are going to contain very nearly the same weight of stocks. What I mean by that the top 10 holdings of both will contain exactly the same stocks in almost exactly the same proportions. Even though the total market index contains many more stocks the additional stocks make up a very small portion of the total.

I am aware of how P/E is calculated for a stock , need to understand how it is calculate for the broader market index Asked by pk - Wed Mar 1 01:11:49 2006 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. You will need the stock prices at the time divided by the earnings per share and proportioned off by the weight given to them. You will have to know all the P/Es of all the stocks and the weight given to all the stocks. Many ETFs only list the top weighed stocks in their index. Some will give you the names of all their stocks but not how they calculate the weight. They might do it to prevent a true mimic of their index without paying the fees to own the index. Generally they will mention the PE on their own.
