Experts express a cautious stance on Vanguard S&P 500-CAD Hedged (VSP), particularly in comparison to its unhedged counterpart, VFV. The primary distinction noted is that VSP mitigates currency risk, which can be beneficial given the CAD's long-term weakness against the USD. Despite this hedging, there's a preference for VFV due to its lack of currency protection, as the long-term outlook for the USD remains stable. Concerns regarding high valuations are echoed, especially since a significant portion of VSP is concentrated in technology stocks. Experts suggest consulting a more diversified or equal-weight strategy to mitigate potential sector overexposure. Ultimately, they propose maintaining a diversified portfolio that may include both hedged and unhedged options according to personal risk tolerance and market outlook.
Vanguard S&P 500-CAD Hedged (VSP-T) or Vanguard MSCI US Broad Market (VUS-T)? The difference between these 2 is that one is hedged and the other is not, although VUS holds about 6000 stocks.
John HoodVanguard S&P 500-CAD Hedged (VSP-T) or BMO Dow Jones Industrial Average Hedge (ZWA-T) and in the next 3-6 months? These are 2 very different things. In this one you are basically getting pure exposure to the upside to the S&P 500. The Dow has actually lagged the S&P 500. So he would want to own this one instead. Low fee and just stick with it and allow the full upside of the market to be delivered to your statement every month.
Thinks that Vanguard has some extremely good products and he’ll be using more of them. Less fees than the equivalent iShares S&P 500 (CAD-Hedged) etf (XSP-T) but basically the same product.
