Love this! Thanks man
Great video as always Mitch. I only started investing a few months ago and your videos have been so educational during this period! Just wondering - is there any difference between the funds with ticker symbols IITU and IUIT?
Really engaging presentation - loved the pace, humour and above all, the quality of the info. Thanks Mitch
Thanks dude!
My main takeaway from this was that you get a disappointing amount if M&Ms in packets nowadays 😄
😂😂😂 even I was thinking where is the rest of them when I poured them out
It used to be a 165g pack of peanut M&Ms now that pack has gone up from £1 to at least £1.50p sometimes £1.90p. They introduced their share bag at 225 grams which we all know people scoff themselves with no intention of sharing. You consume more but also pay more while the smaller 45g bag is now very hard to come by.
@@ianarnthat’s a man who knows his M&Ms!
Was it me, or were there no green ones?
Any opinion on FWRG as an all world?
Hello Mitch, new subscriber here. Thank you so much for your content. I’m new to investing, and learning about it here was so daunting and difficult; however, I am really enjoying your videos and I have learned a lot just from watching you. Thank you ☺️
Hey, I really appreciate that, thanks so much!
Hi Mitch great video!
I already hold a decent amount of S&P500 ETF (VUAG) and looking to add some IITU for growth.
Would you suggest going with Nasdaq 100 (EQQQ / CNX1) instead for lower returns but greater diversification?
Thanks!
Congrats on 40K!
Thanks mate ❤️
I just have the VWRL. Do you think it's worth opening another like VUSA alongside it? Would there be many advantages to that? I just want to keep things simple. Thanks and great video!
Depends if you want additional exposure to the US. VWRL is around 60% and VUSA is 100%. The VWRL has the same top 10 holdings than VUSA so personally I wouldn't pay the double the fee. You could have 4x funds (S&P 500, FTSE 100, Japan, Asia Pacific and Emerging Markets) this way you can dial up whatever region you want and is cheaper than VWRL
nothing to add to this, spot on!
@@Citi-zen86 Thanks a lot. I really appreciate the response. I think for simplicity's sake, I'll stick to the one fund and eat the additional fund cost and slowly drip feed in for the next 12 years and see where I am at the end of it!
Why VUSA and not VUAG and keep your investments in GBP (and avoid fx fees)?
I've had HSBC American index & L&G Global 100 index invested with HL they're doing not to bad as-well.
Nice! There are multiple good index funds to invest in that’s for sure 👌🏼
Hi Mitch, really enjoy your content. Just curious as to why you hold VUSA on Vanguard (and pay a fee) as well as T212. Perhaps I have missed something. ATB.
Hi Richard, you’re totally right, I should transfer my ISA over really I just haven’t got round to it. I basically opened my vanguard account in 2017, and then stopped investing in it around 2020 and moved to T212, but now T212 have the ISA transfer feature I’ll likely switch it over at some point to say a few quid on fees!
I remember the tech crash in 2000 so Nasdaq is not for me the company Cisco still has not fully recovered.
Hi Mitch with regards to the Invesco Nasdaq 100 fund, would it better for a UK resident to invest into the UK version EQGB rather than EQQQ ? What is the difference ?
Agree, which is preferable?
Thanks Mitch, that's a great reason to buy a bag of M&M's
That’s what I told myself too 😂
Helpful video. Considering the argument that the top companies in these funds are possibly overvalued , what is your view on Equally weighted Index funds?
It’s a good question, I like weighted funds for the reason that the best performing firms push the value of your returns up, appreciate it’s a bit of a double edged sword but when such a small number of firms are driving most of the returns, I’d rather have a bigger weighting towards those stocks. No right or wrong answer, I guess it all comes down to personal risk appetite 👌🏼
@@MitchShoesmith Yeah, certainly at the moment I’m sure weighted funds are performing better but I’ve read that over the long term equally weighted funds often perform better. Need to do more research. Thanks for the reply!
I hold 4 ETFs as part of my portfolio. (Along with other stocks) i hold VWRP, EQQQ, SMH, DGRW
Hi , new to investing here. Aren’t the first two duplicating same stocks you are investing in?
Just a question but can we use stock's and shares ISA to trade futures and options?
No unfortunately not, you’ll need to open an account that has that facility
@MitchShoesmith yes I see and so a cash isa not also possible
Is MDYG ETF available for UK investors?
Tell me you invest in M&M's without telling me you invest in M&M's ;) Great video mate!
Thanks man!
Are these IF's available for a stocks and shares ISA?
Yes, if you have a stocks and shares ISA with T212 they’ll be available
@@MitchShoesmith Legend, thank you.
Not sure investing everything in risk 6/7 is necessary ? Also in the first 2 funds you are not investing in a packet of m&Ms but in one case yellow only and in the other red only so in reality they are active funds because you are choosing the sector and the geographical area they are invested in. For many people Invesco ftse all world ETf at 0.15% is a winner and don't people in general need accm when young and perhaps towards retirement change to distr? But thanks for the food for thought.
Thoughts on 50 50
Split between EQQQ and vusa for the next 20 years ?
It’s a pure US equity play, which I personally like and cant see the US stock market falling off its perch in the next 5 years, but in 20 years from now who knows, another country could very much come to the forefront. Just like the UK, and Japan did in the 1900’s. US markets have dominated for the past 20 years but it may not last forever…
@@MitchShoesmithYes, but think a little. Who can overtake US? EU no, because of war. Asia countries no, because of fertility rate. China no, beacuse the fallin economy. India no, because of the lack of technology. Geography creates winners. And US won.
@@dodiloiThe US have enormous debt and is a divided country politically and culturally. China own quite a lot of Africa now with all its vast resources. I wouldn’t write them off.
@@dodiloi Stronger economy does not mean better returns. Markets now have already priced in the future potential of America, you're buying at a price that will ensure even if US continues to do well you won't make the same return. Better returns come from unexpected growth, not growth that all of us are already expecting.
Best stocks to buy rn in t212?
I’ve got my eyes on a couple!
Common misconception that the S&P500 has not lost money over a 20 year period. From 1989 to 2009 you would have lost money. I can't remember the percentage but it was on a fund backtesting site I found.
I feel investors should be focusing on under-the-radar stocks, and considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, Because 35% of my $270k portfolio comprises of plummeting stocks which were once revered and i don't know where to go here out of devastation.
Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert
Okay, after you activating my after eight addiction, I now want m&m’s…
Looking handsome, Mitch.
😆 thanks dude! I was in London in meetings all day and couldn’t be bothered to get changed before recording
Priw and chill!
Recommending VHYL should be treated as crime offence
lol one for the divi investors, not for me though!
Past performance is not necessarily an indication of future performance. If a fund has done well over the last 5 years it tells you that you should have invested in it 5 years ago, not necessarily today
Totally, can make this case for every investment on the planet! Using your best judgement is what matters, many of these funds are so well diversified they’ll likely continue to do well in future too.
Yes but that return in the past 5 years, when there was:
1) A global pandemic
2) European total war
3) US inflation and recession
4) All kinds of bubbles
tells a lot.
@@dodiloithat is not really my point. Those funds have performed well in the past, but that does not mean they will continue to perform well in the future.
@@mrg8537 Yes, nothing is guaranteed. I just wanted to give credit
@@mrg8537..Oxygen is necessary for life.. but also so is Carbon. Your contributions are useless. Future investments are generally based in some part on past success, don't be a cretin all of your life, be useful and contribute with helpful comments or information, and not a deliquent word salad.
so disappointed, I was looking for UK etfs
