Vanguard sees U.S. value stocks and small-caps outperforming growth stocks and large-caps in the next decades. If so, the Vanguard Morningstar Small-Cap Value ETF could be a better buy than other S&P 500 ETFs.

The Vanguard Morningstar Small-Cap Value ETF (VBR) was launched on January 26, 2004, and is a passively managed exchange traded fund designed to offer broad exposure to the Small Cap Value segment of the US equity market.

The Vanguard Morningstar Small-Cap Value ETF remains a buy, with the recent pullback presenting an attractive entry point. VBR trades at a compelling 13.6x P/E and a 1.28x PEG, supported by a 10.58% long-term earnings growth rate. Rising Treasury yields and a bear-flattened curve pressure VBR, especially its regional bank exposure, but much bad news appears priced in.
