Satrix MSCI World Vs 10x Total world for TFSA

[sungw]

Hey y'all,
I'm very new to investing so any input/advice/criticism is greatly appreciated.

I've been looking between the Satrix MSCI World ETF and the 10x Total World ETF for my TFSA (EE).

I know that Total World has lower fees and is more diverse (includes emerging markets while Msci world doesn't) but it looks like MSCI World performs a decent amount better in the same years.

So I'm thinking that MSCI World even with slightly higher fees and a little less diversification will make me more money.

Please let me know if I'm being dumb XD

@sungw Past performance does not equal future performance.

Emerging markets have underperformed in last fifteen years. No reason to expect this trend to continue.

@sungw Past doesn’t equal future. Lowest TER and most diversified would be how I would decide.

@sungw Honestly, these are both amongst the best options available so it's much of a muchness between the two.

Pretty much pick whether you want to gamble on the developed markets or the whole world. Neither is incorrect.

@sungw Prefer msci world.

 

[sungw]

@spiritualchristian7 How come?

 

[spiritualchristian7]

@sungw My view is that living in South Africa gives us a lot of exposure to emerging markets and commodities already.

@sungw Looks like the MSCI World does not pay out dividends is that correct?
