Okay, I've checked them out. Granted they've used different paths to the present this past year. and I think have adjusted to the present. My view is that small caps have greatly outperformed the total market over time. Presently, VTI is slightly oversold, whereas IJR is undersold, with MFI's of 59 and 30 respectively.

agreed that small caps tend outperform large caps over time - that's why I overweight them in portfolios.
"On Wednesday, the consensus of the most reliable equity market valuation measures we identify (those most tightly correlated with actual subsequent S&P 500 total returns in market cycles across history) advanced within 5% of the extreme registered in March 2000. Recall that following that peak, the S&P 500 did indeed lose half of its value, the Nasdaq Composite lost 80% of its value, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index lost an oddly precise 83% of its value. With historically reliable valuation measures beyond those of 1929 and lesser peaks, capitalization-weighted measures are essentially tied with the most offensive levels in history. Meanwhile, the valuation of the median component of the S&P 500 is already far beyond the median valuations observed at the peaks of 2000, 2007 and prior market cycles, while our estimate for 10-12 year returns on a conventional 60/30/10 mix of stocks, bonds, and T-bills fell to a record low last week, making this the most broadly overvalued moment in market history."

May I ask what index you're using to measure large caps? I'm using IJR for small caps, and would like to compare these to see what vast difference you're speaking of. Thanks

VV
Well then I was right, as VV and VTI have been basically the same
and had the same footprint this past year, in fact since VV's inception in 2004.
IJR had a 20 percent jump last November, then level the last three months,
compared to VV and VTI having a gradual four month 15 percent increase, with
MFI's of 30, 59 and 69.5 respectively. Everything seems quite high at the moment.

I think it is too. How are you adjusting for this possibility; are you out of the market, 50% out, or some other strategy?
Oh such originality of the Troll.

You have just placed yourself at greater risk for identity theft.
Greater risk of identifying fools.
