DFAW: Interesting Strategy But This Might Be Why It's Not Working

The Dimensional World Equity ETF has not generated alpha over U.S.-domestic ETFs due to the dominance of the Magnificent 7 in the U.S. market.

Current market conditions and the dominance of tech giants make it difficult for DFAW to outperform the U.S. market.
