The Vanguard Mid-Cap Index Fund Institutional Plus Shares (VMCPX) is an ultralow-cost, passively managed index fund that tracks medium-sized stocks domiciled in the United States. VMCPX tracks the CRSP U.S. Mid Cap Index and uses a full-replication strategy by owning all the stocks in the index. This gives investors exposure to over 375 different domestic mid-caps. A broad range of sectors and industries are represented by the index.
As an index covering mid-cap stocks, VMCPX makes an ideal core position alongside large- and mid-cap U.S. equities. The fund is internally managed by Vanguard.
