SCHF: Global Markets Continue To Entice Me

Schwab International Equity ETF (SCHF) seeks to track the FTSE Developed ex US Index, offering broad international developed market exposure. SCHF's significant allocation to Japanese equities is supported by robust wage growth, moderate inflation, and strong corporate buybacks, though valuations are above historical averages. I am cautious on US tech due to aggressive capex and euphoria, preferring to allocate new capital to SCHF's international mix for balanced global exposure.

Schwab International Equity ETF remains a BUY, offering diversified ex-US exposure with a competitive 0.03% expense ratio and 3.1% dividend yield. SCHF's recent 12-month rally (+40.31%) was driven by valuation rerating, but forward EPS growth expectations (31%) support continued upside.
