VEA Sector Allocation
VEA — bull case vs bear case
- All ETFs carry market risk — the price can fall, and past performance does not predict future results.
- Prices can trade slightly away from NAV, and small tracking error can open a gap versus the benchmark.
- Very low cost — a 0.03% expense ratio leaves more of the return compounding for you.
- Instant diversification across many holdings in one liquid ticker, with no stock-picking required.
- A large, established fund ($304.26B AUM) means deep liquidity and tight bid-ask spreads.
About Vanguard FTSE Developed Markets Index Fund ETF Shares
The fund employs an indexing investment approach designed to track the performance of the FTSE Developed All Cap ex U.S. Index, a market-capitalization-weighted index that is made up of approximately 3,957 common stocks of large-, mid-, and small-cap companies located in Canada and the major markets of Europe and the Pacific region. The Advisor attempts to replicate the target index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets in the stocks that make up the index, holding each stock in approximately the same proportion as its weighting in the index.
