2021年11月19日 · 20% VXUS seems like enough to get a diversification benefit. I know many advocate for something like global market weight but having been so disappointed in foreign stocks this past decade of holding them, it’s hard to want to hold more than the bare recommendation minimum.

VT all day. VTI/VXUS isn't worth the effort IMO, assuming you're ok with the market cap weighted index. Tax credit and expense ratio differences are negligible IMO. Tax loss harvesting isn't worth it, because it isn't a goal, but rather a means to an end IMO. And it removes any chance of you second guessing your past self. "Why did I choose 70/30?

VT is the total world market. 99% similar portfolio is 60% vti/ 40% vxus. But if america lags behind the rest of the world in a given year, you’d need to rebalance to say 55% vti/45% vxus to approximate total world market. Not a huge deal IMO, but in the long run it’s good to rebalance in case things drastically.

2021年5月11日 · Over the long term emerging markets have done slightly better than the developed markets, which is why VXUS has had a slight edge over VEA in the past. The situation is very similar to the SP500 vs total US market discussion, where I prefer VTI over VOO because the total market VTI has more diversification and some exposure to US small caps ...

As for your question, there aren't many alternatives to vxus because it contains developed and emerging markets. You can of course buy two different ETFs (1 developed markets & 1 emerging market). This way, there are tons of options.

2022年8月31日 · In 2021, 5.94% of dividends received could be claimed as a foreign tax credit (see VXUS, column 3). That same year, the VXUS dividend yield was 3.30% (source: Google). So for every $1000 you would otherwise invest in VT You would invest ~$600 in VTI and ~$400 in VXUS VXUS would pay ~$13.20 in dividends

Bij VXUS is er wel level 1 belasting, die ben je kwijt, en ook level 2 belasting, maar die kan je dus ook verrekenen. Bij een Iers fonds raak je voor VS aandelen de level 1 belasting kwijt, en dat is wat het zo duur maakt. Dividendlek op VXUS is meegenomen in het overzicht van u/gerbenvl die ik gelinkt heb trouwens.

2023年2月17日 · FSPSX is a large cap with no emerging markets from what I know about it , it only holds 800 or so stocks if I am not mistaken. If you want something similar to VXUS at fidelity you want to use FTIHX its not exactly the same but they are all cap including both developed and emerging markets .FTIHX has a bit over 5k stocks and vxus over 7800 stocks.

2023年4月15日 · VXUS distributes quarterly (in March, June, September, and December), while IXUS distributes twice a year (in June and December). This means that VXUS has already distributed dividends from the first quarter of 2023, while the yield for IXUS only goes through the end of 2022 (and more recent dividends are included in its NAV instead).

2022年9月17日 · This is why no vxus for me. America may not be the best country for the average in some ways. But if you are an exceptional entrepreneur, you bet it is the best country on earth in that regard, and has been for a long time, and it’s not even close to being tapped out.
