About Vanguard Strategic Equity Fund Investor Shares

The fund invests in small- and mid-capitalization domestic equity securities based on the advisor's assessment of the relative return potential of the securities. The advisor selects securities that the advisor believes offer an appropriate balance between strong growth prospects and reasonable valuations relative to their industry peers. The advisor does this by using a quantitative process to evaluate all of the securities in the benchmark, the MSCI U.S. Small + Mid Cap 2200 Index, while seeking to maintain a risk profile similar to that of the index.
