Hello, this is my first post. I currently hold around 20 stocks on freetrade, and around 5/6 of them are US stocks. Does anyone here think it would be more beneficial and manageable to cut out the US stocks as the UK stocks tend to pay higher dividends, or would this be a mistake? I tend to go for more Stable stocks such as Pepsi, Unilever, Diageo, LGEN. For extra detail I do also have a vanguard SIPP with index funds, however in an ISA I prefer stocks. submitted by /u/Ok_Fail_3671 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I started to invest in TDGB in my GIA but then came across the information that I might be charged withholding tax as this etf is domiciled in the Netherlands. Would really appreciate if someone can explain to me additional cost/tax associated with investing in this etf? I'm UK based, investment is in interactive investors. submitted by /u/violaqq [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi all, To start off with I am very new to this so please bear with me. I have just invested in a Vanguard ISA. I have chosen the FTSE 100 UCITS ETF (VUKG) and the FTSE Global All Cap Index Fund. Since Vanguard doesn’t have an app yet (they are beta testing) I downloaded Stocks to track development. I can find VUKG in the but not the Global All Cap. Could someone tell me what to look for or suggest an app where I can easily look at both of the above? Thanks! submitted by /u/Orenx [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I realise ESG is a very elastic term but for this purpose my definition is: Actively avoid investing directly in oil, weapons & tobacco Preference towards ESG "good" investments outside this but not without compromising on decent returns Global diversification - so not just lump it all in USA, again not for the sake of it or at the expense of decent returns Sufficient representation of lower risk/less volatile investments aligned to being 5-10 years from retirement, if not necessarily income-themed at this stage. A manageable portfolio across GIA, ISA and SIPP which doesn't requ ..read more

Are there any ETFs that UK retail investors can access which provide small-cap and value (simultaneous) factor exposure? I know many people consider them active but I'm looking for the more passive kind, think of Vanguard but for factors, e.g. VBR and IJS for US exposure and DISV for international exposure but these are all US-listed non-UCTIS ETFs. I'm not too concerned about geographical exposure for now. Thanks! submitted by /u/No-Consequence-6807 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Is there any benefit from buying a hedged tracker v an unhedged equity tracker? I know bonds should be hedged but what about equity? I guess it only makes sense if you think the dollar is going to decrease in value v the pound because the Fed will reduce interest rates faster but this looks very unlikely. submitted by /u/Old-Amphibian416 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
