I am invested all in, in the Vanguard FTSE Global All Cap. Is really good to hear you speak about that. Nice one!

Curious to know if the presenters will pop back in a year’s time and compare their results against a global tracker.

Worth noting, for those worried about over exposure to US tech stocks that there are low fee “ex USA” index funds available and also world index funds based on RAFI weightings.

Before I watch it I’ll assume active funds with higher fees.

Edit: well having now watched it, credit where credit is due. Ed has definitely erred on a more passive journey than Gemma, who has picked mainly active funds because she said she feels she can put her trust in the fund managers.

Well let’s hope she’s picked some of the only 30% of active fund managers that outperformed passive funds over the last 10 years.

thanks - glad it’s not all fidelity funds:-)

If you take Gemma’s active picks together then you’ll end up with global tracker performance…or probably worse…the fees will kill any modest gains,

Interesting chat - thanks for sharing. It would have been interesting to know your weightings in each of these funds.

Interesting. 👍

Nice vid. Why would you not include the ticker symbols?

Vanilla Ice should run a Vanilla fund.

@user-te7zz8mv3x 6 months ago

i avoid gold because i didn’t want to buy at the top. my hubby was more daring and did buy some last autumn ! so fingers crossed i’m cautious and he’s more adventurous, everything will come out in the wash :-)

Why Vanguard FTSE all world and not HSBC all world with 0.10% lower fee? I am invested in 95% HSBC all world and 5% Vanguard MSCI small cap index fund, also emergency fund sits in L&G Short Term Money Market fund, all om Fidelity UK platform.

There is only one investment you should be making, and thats 100% global stock tracker, no matter the year, no matter what is going on in the world, no matter interest rates etc etc. Stocks over time = wealth.
