It depends on your financial situation and your goals.
For me personally, my vanguard account is where I’m gambling on the economy...so I have large, mid and small cap stock indexes (I plan on buying their health index, it performed well through the 2007 recession and better than down and S&p 500 )
Do your research, see what suits you...now with each index that you buy there is an expense % that you pay vanguard to manage your account...what’s great about vanguard is that their expense ratio are really low...like .05% or .03% and so on...so you have to take that into account when it comes to your expenses...this is great for people that are not day traders...you put your money in and just monitor the account...vanguard does the buying with the gains etc.
Checkout their options and other options besides vanguard...I mentioned Vanguard b/c is from experience...I can’t speak on other financial firms.
And by stock indexes, you mean their ETFs correct?
