I maintain a buy rating on VEA due to its attractive valuation, strong diversification, and higher dividend yield compared to US equities. VEA's underperformance relative to the S&P 500 is due to its lower exposure to tech and higher exposure to cyclical sectors. The US Dollar Index's stability in 2024 has been a tailwind, but VEA's diversified holdings have limited its alpha generation.

VEA is a buy due to solid outlook for developed markets including Japan, its low expense ratio, high diversification, and substantial dividend yield. VEA excludes emerging markets and therefore reduces risks associated with Chinese holdings including tariffs and investment bans. VEA offers investors with diversification away from U.S. markets which currently have multiple indicators of being overvalued.

Hello! This is MarketWatch reporter Isabel Wang bringing you this week's ETF Wrap. In this edition, we look at Europe exchange-traded funds on the back of the first interest-rate cut by the European Central Bank since 2019. Investors are fretting over whether there's room for these regional equities to build on their record-hitting rally so far this year.

ECB jumps ahead of the Fed to deliver its first rate cut. Is now a good time to invest in Europe ETFs?

By: Nolan Mauk In the post-pandemic era marked by economic uncertainty, volatility, geopolitical tension, and deglobalization, one thing has been made clear: no market, sector, or asset class is immune to the effects of rapidly changing market cycles.

All-Seasons Investing: The Case for a Diversified Asset Allocation

Vanguard FTSE Developed Markets ETF has underperformed the S&P 500 but has shown modest alpha since mid-February. VEA has a compelling valuation and some foreign-developed stock markets are reaching all-time highs. VEA's low PEG ratio, high dividend yield, diversified allocation across sectors, and improved chart are positive factors.

The S&P 500 has rallied 17% in just over two months, and US stock valuations are "stretched." The rest of the world is lagging the US in terms of inflationary trends, central bank policy and valuations. Investors may start looking for a catch-up play outside the US, considering ETFs like Vanguard FTSE Developed Markets ETF and Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund ETF.

There's been more talk lately about aiming for diversification through international investing, which wasn't a major topic of discussion for a while.

VettaFi Voices On: International Investing's Revival

Vanguard FTSE Developed Markets ETF offers diversification in developed foreign markets as an alternative to U.S.-centric investments. VEA has trailed the S&P 500 due to limited exposure to high-growth sectors, but may benefit from a credit event. VEA provides diversification and attractive valuation compared to U.S. stocks, but caution is advised due to momentum weakness and Federal Reserve policy.

The more I write about investments, the more I'm convinced the average investor should focus on must-buy ETFs rather than must-buy stocks for their investment portfolios. The reality is that ETFs are less volatile than stocks.

Foreign developed equities have outperformed most areas of the global market this year. With solid earnings trends despite macro risks and still-attractive valuations, I'm upgrading VEA to a buy.
