The Vanguard S&P 500 Index ETF (VFV-T) is regarded as a solid core holding for long-term investors, capable of navigating market fluctuations. Experts acknowledge the significant weighting of technology within the index, which raises concerns about potential overvaluation, especially with the introduction of high-profile IPOs such as SpaceX and OpenAI that might impact the ETF adversely. While some prefer the unhedged approach of VFV over the hedged version (VSP) due to currency outlooks, they advise caution given current market valuations and the likelihood of a market correction within the next decade. Overall, investors are encouraged to approach the ETF with a long-term strategy, taking advantage of market dips for enhanced returns. Additionally, diversifying across different asset classes is recommended to mitigate risks associated with high volatility in equities.
This is going to be a more targeted large cap sort of bias. Vanguard is starting to lower the costs on their products. It has a management fee 0.08 basis points. Crazy cheap.
John DeGoey(A Top Pick Jan 16/13. Up 41.39%.) This is not hedged and is his single biggest position for all of his clients.
Terry ShaunessyThis is not hedged, but once the Cdn$ moves up to $1.01, $1.02 or $1.03, he thinks it is in the topping out stage and thinks the Cdn$ will start to drift down.

(A Top Pick Nov 5/14. Up 16.26%.) The whole reason this has done so well is because it is not hedged. The S&P 500 over this past year has actually lost money. Pretty much 100% of this gain is due to the currency exchange.
