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. DFAW's 0.25% expense ratio and academic strategy focus on historical outperformance but lack true global diversification, especially in emerging markets. Current market conditions and the dominance of tech giants make it difficult for DFAW to outperform the U.S. market.
