Vanguard Mid-Cap Index's well-diversified, market-cap-weighted portfolio is a terrific way to invest in mid-cap stocks. Additionally, its paper-thin expense ratio and low turnover make it one of the best mid-cap blend funds available. It retains a Morningstar Analyst Rating of Gold, while the Investor share class receives a downgrade to Silver on account of its higher fees.
