Here's why all investors (even experienced ones) should consider these three ETFs.The basis of all portfolios should include these indexesThe Total Stock Market ETF centers around all stocks traded in the U.S. This includes small and micro-cap stocks that the Vanguard 500 (which tracks the S&P 500) misses. As a result, the index has captured the rise of companies like Amazon, Netflix, and Tesla, where the S&P 500 didn't. However, capturing these rises doesn't always mean outperformance.Data by YCharts.While these two closely track each other, there are different time periods where one might outperform the other. Because of that, purchasing both in equal amounts is a great idea.Another reason these two should be your first purchase is the instant diversification it provides.

Warren Buffett believes most investors would succeed by purchasing a low-cost index fund like these two.

The stocks in this index are the smallest 2,000 of the largest 3,000 companies listed in the U.S.Small-cap stocks produce some massive winners and usually outperform large caps (over long time horizons). However, since 2021, small caps have had a pretty bad run.Data by YCharts.With small caps underperforming recently, a turnaround might be imminent. Plus, small-cap stocks tend to outperform during the recovery following a bear market. Considering that's where we may find ourselves right now, small-cap stocks look attractive.With all three of these ETFs, there is one other consideration: the expense ratio.

That's practically nothing. As a general rule of thumb, the less mainstream an ETF gets, the higher the expense ratio, which is why the Vanguard Russell 2000 ETF charges $1 for every $1,000.Still, that's not a lot of gains to give up, especially since you don't have to do any work besides purchasing the ETF.There are thousands of other ETFs allowing you to focus on any sector or strategy, but these three are solid bedrock funds to build a portfolio on.
