Global Equity Added

in stocks •  3 years ago 

Hi Friends,

I recently added a new holding to my portfolio - SPDR Developed World ex-US ETF, ticker SPDW:

1BFE39D5ADBC48FA9AF95F8A911B01C1.jpeg

This is a global equity ETF that focuses on established markets. I have other emerging market ETFs, so this is a similar play to my mega cap growth ETF I recently added, but globally focused instead of US focused.

The US capital markets have been strong and continue to make all time highs - this is a chance to slide in on some additional global exposure where I expect that to be outsized returns compared to the fully priced in US markets. It has a fairly high yield at 2.3%, so that is a positive as well. Here are some of the top holdings, but no holding is greater than 1.5% of the fund, so it is pretty diversified:

  • Samsung
  • Nestle
  • Novartis
  • Toyota
  • Louis Vuitton
  • Shopify

It is also highly diversified across sectors, with the largest being:

  • Financial Services - 16%
  • Industrials - 16%
  • Technology - 12%
  • Consumer Cyclical - 11%
  • Healthcare - 10%

Not too exciting, but should be a money maker.

Thanks for coming by,
Brian
