SPDW Over VEA: A Comparative Analysis Of Developed Market ETFs
SPDR Portfolio Developed World ex-US ETF and Vanguard FTSE Developed Markets ETF both earn buy ratings for global diversification and value. SPDW offers marginally superior risk-adjusted performance and lower volatility due to its optimized sampling, excluding micro-caps and focusing on core developed nations. Both ETFs provide lower P/E ratios than US markets, strong exposure to Japan's corporate reforms, and sectoral positioning in industrials and tech hardware.
SPDW: International Stocks Boasting A Record 2025 YTD, Reiterate Buy
I maintain a buy rating on SPDW, citing its low valuation, strong momentum, and technical breakout above long-term resistance. SPDW is outperforming the S&P 500 YTD, with attractive Sharpe ratios and a 2.88% yield, boosted by a weak dollar tailwind. The ETF offers broad exposure to developed markets, low expenses, high liquidity, and a favorable risk profile compared to US equities.
SPDW: International Stocks Shine Amid Dollar Slump
The SPDR Portfolio Developed World ex-US ETF invests in non-US stocks, primarily in Japan, the United Kingdom, and Canada. SPDW's portfolio is more attractively valued relative to the S&P 500, partially driven by an overweight position in Financial stocks. The unraveling of the carry trade strategy highlights the appeal of non-US stocks for US investors.
