Noticed Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund (VTSMX) bought 12% more shares (47,500) recently and now have 430.8K shares for a value of $689.3K
Fund has been around since 1992
Closed to new investors.
Net value: $131.76B
But don't get your DD off a messageboard
Click on the links below and go find VERB to see for yourself
Yup, it took me an extra 10 seconds to cut and paste the links with my post
Overview
https://investor.vanguard.com/mutual-funds/pr...view/vtsmx
Portfolio Holdings
https://investor.vanguard.com/mutual-funds/pr...o-holdings
Note you can sort which makes it quicker to find VERB either Alphabetical or Value
Something to think about
Their holding include 3,521 stocks
Pretty much all or close to all of the US stocks
There are other Vanguard funds that hold, but this is the way this one works
After all, it is an index fund and in this case an index of US stocks
But why do they own so much of VERB?
Look at other stocks like Youngevity International Inc. with a market cap of $37.38M and a holding of $400,131
Maybe Vanguard bought more when VERB's market cap was higher earlier this year
Maybe
If that is the case, as VERB stock goes up, the index funds will buy more
Maybe as the stock goes up, other index funds have to buy in
Do other index funds have a buy limit of $1, $2, etc?
