Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: Year-to-date, mid-cap growth stock funds are up approximately 7%, whereas the S&P 500 is up around 2.4%. The reason why mid-cap stocks can be good now and in the near-term, as opposed to small-caps and large-caps, is that small-caps have more market risk and large-caps may get hit by a strong dollar.

Janus? No thanks. On the surface, it would seem that investors might be just as good with Vanguard Mid Cap Index as Mid Cap Growth Index. Less volatility for about the same returns over time. For actively-managed mid cap growth funds, Ivy IYMIX and Artisan ARTMX have strong management and good records.
