VT Stock Recent News

The US stock market has underperformed in 2025, with domestic equities down over 4%, while global equities have provided a boost to VT. I reiterate my buy rating on the Vanguard Total World Stock Index Fund, due to its lower P/E ratio and strong diversification. VT's valuation is attractive, with a P/E ratio of 17 and a healthy long-term EPS growth rate above 10%.

VT offers extensive global diversification but is heavily weighted towards US stocks, which may not appeal to those already holding US equities. The fund has consistently underperformed the S&P 500, though recent outperformance is driven by European stocks benefiting from dovish central bank policies. VT's low expense ratio of 0.06% is attractive, but its exposure to global risks and volatile small-cap stocks warrants caution.
