Hello all,

From the beginning of my investment history about 3y ago I have heard that the S&P500 is one of the best ETFs that you can invest it.

In light of recent events I think this is becoming less and less the case. Do you think that is still the case? And if no what are you investing in?

Here's my investment portfolio:

  • 70% US - I still think US will outperform, but I'm not as confident anymore; mostly VTI with a small cap tilt using DFSV
  • 30% international - mostly VXUS, with a small cap tilt using DISV

I think US stocks will take a beating during Trump's presidency, provided he keeps messing with tariffs, but I think longer term the US will bounce back because we have a very attractive regulatory environment for businesses.
