Speaking of small cap, I was thinking of starting to dollar cost average into the Vanguard small cap value index fund (VSIAX).

Expense ratio	        0.07%
Number of stocks	858
Median market cap	$6.7 B
Earnings growth rate	14.1%
P/E ratio		14.6x	
P/B ratio		1.8x	
Return on equity	11.5%
Dividend yield          2.0%
10yr performance	7.89%
Since inception		11.77% (9/27/2011)

These days it's rare for a basket of US stocks to have a P/E of less than 15. This one is only 14.6. It's not going to go bust. Dollar cost averaging should lead to pleasant results. No? P/E for US mid cap and large are all well above 15, even for the value funds. Even Emerging and Dev ex US are now P/E > 15 but still less than 16.
