I have held shares of a small cap value CEP for a very long time, almost since its inception in the 1980s. Bought a few more shares in the last couple years. It pays nice dividends and appears to have outdone the Russell 2000 by a little. I only purchased shares when its market price was at a substantial discount to its net asset value (NAV) as I figure that takes care of the management fees for a while. Royce Small Cap Trust, Inc (RVT)

Vanguard started a Russell 2000 index fund in late 2010, VTWO. Maybe I should have bought shares in it. Vanguard Mutual Fund Profile | Vanguard
