The article compares two major ETFs: Vanguard Total World Stock ETF (VT), which provides global exposure including U.S. stocks, and iShares Core MSCI Total International Stock ETF (IXUS), which focuses exclusively on non-U.S. markets. While VT offers comprehensive global diversification with a slightly lower expense ratio of 0.06%, IXUS provides better diversification benefits for investors already exposed to U.S. large-caps, offering a higher dividend yield of 3.0% versus 1.6%. The author recommends IXUS for portfolio diversification purposes, citing better international stock outlook according to leading strategists.
