Here's the difference between VFV vs XEQT and under 60 seconds. Everyone online argues about this for no reason. VFV tracks the S&P500. It's 500 US companies, so you're all in on the states. 0.09% fee, which is super cheap. XEQT is an all-in-one ETF. USA, CAD, international. Examples of geography. US, Canada, and international. And it rebalances for you. It's more expensive at 0.20%, but it's still cheap. The real difference. VFV > XEQT (in terms of returns). VFV has historically returned more because it's 100% US. But if the states have a bad decade, that ETF gets hit. XEQT is smoother because it's globally diversified. What to buy as beginner? If you want to buy one ETF, not look at their portfolio, XEQT > VFV. Want more return? (and more risk). If you're willing to take on more risk to get a better return, and you truly believe the United States will continue to dominate, VFV has been the better performer. Ask me anything.
