5 questions about Interactive brokers and ETF

@Marxx

I suppose the Invesco ETF you are talking about is [IE00B60SX394] (Detailed Comparison for ETFs | justETF) . That’s IE domiciled . The TER is a bit higher though . Do you believe I should reconsider?. I suppose that the 15% of taxes I save investing in IE will probably reduce the TER by some decimal points.

Yes, the tax saving should be around 0.25% per year.

Note that the MSCI world only covers around 75% of the total world market. It is missing small caps and emerging markets (and frontier markets, but nobody cares about them)

I only found the holdings in the halve annual report.

Here is a portfolio, that covers a bit more and avoids small cap growth companies:

Model portfolio with UCITS ETFs

However it also misses Small caps from Japan, Australia, Canada and Israel.

I don’t have plans to spend those money now but I am not sure. My primary intention was to avoid the negative interest on my bank account investing in ETF, create a conservative portfolio and try to speculate (rebalance/become more aggressive) when the markets fall.

Don’t time the market. It is not a sound strategy.
