ACWX: Improving Macroeconomic Environment With Fair Valuation
iShares MSCI ACWI ex U.S. ETF offers diversification with 1,800 international stocks but has lower exposure to high-growth tech sectors, potentially limiting long-term returns. Easing global monetary policies and receding inflation should benefit ACWX in the near term, with earnings growth expected to improve through 2026. ACWX is trading at a fair valuation of 13.2x forward P/E, compared to the higher valuation of the S&P 500 at 22.0x.

Why ACWX Offers More Potential Than VXUS
Investors question the value of holding international stocks due to currency risk and underperformance against US stocks. This article compares two international equity ETFs, the iShares MSCI ACWI ex U.S. ETF versus the Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund ETF. While past results slightly favor VXUS over ACWX, I give the Buy rating to ACWX for what I see as greater potential from its more concentrated portfolio compared to VXUS.
