VXUS - VEU: This International Ex-U.S. ETF Offers Slightly Better Performance Than VXUS But Not Enough To Really Matter
- Looking for an alternative to Vanguard's VXUS, I examine here the next largest International ETF that excludes US stocks: VEU.
- It has far fewer holdings than VXUS and a lower dividend. There are also slight differences in weighting for sectors, geographical distribution of stocks, and fundamentals.
- VEU modestly outperforms in almost every period studied but there are considerations that might keep you from preferring it to the larger fund.
