Buy The Small-Cap Correction: Why I See A 27% VB Return In 2025
I maintain a buy rating on VB due to its reasonable valuation, solid earnings growth, and bullish chart, despite a recent 10% correction.

The ETF has grown significantly in assets under management, features a low expense ratio of 0.05%, and has a forward dividend yield comparable to the S&P 500.
