Yep, it’s a huge economy tbh, don’t think anyone else comes near it.

Considering this ETF is highly weighted to US stocks, are there equivalent ones which have higher weighting to the rest of the world, considering what is happening in the US at present? Ones which focus on Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia etc?
I would rather like to not have the majority of my eggs in the US right now as I’m sure there will be more down turns to come which I can buy later at a better price point.

You could in theory build your own global fund using multiple ETFs and reduce the weighting in the US element. So emerging markets, Europe excluding UK, FTSE100, Japan and then S&P500.
Just my opinion but I’m looking at this as US stocks being on sale so continue to DCA into my all world fund.

By doing this you’ll be sacrificing future US melt-ups also and potentially miss out on the 10% up booms.
That aside, how about VWRP and then simply add a quality Europe ETF at 5% or 10% to increase your exposure. Or the X-Trackers World ex US ETF alongside VWRP.
That then gives you control over your exposure.

Yes sorry to be clear, I’m still DCA in on the dips, but I believe there will be a fair few coming in the short term, so am aiming on ramping up on each bump in the road..
I think that’s exactly what I’m looking for to increase exposure elsewhere - I will check them out, thanks
