I have invested a significant % of my portfolio per a very similar thesis for the past year. DISV, DFIC, AMKBY and VYMI were my main investments there and I am staying put with all. A different but related thesis led me to invest in RNMBY, SAABY and EUAD. I have been taking profits but I'm basically staying put there as well. If things return to normal, I will definitely lose the dollar-debasement piece of this, but so far it is hard to argue with growth that has way outpaced an SP500 or similar approach.
I like AVDE myself, but second the rec for DFIV. I also like DFIC, IVLU, and SCHF.
After being introduced to the “family trusted wealth manager” I gave my life savings to this very respectable firm. They slapped my personal money, my Roth IRA, my wife’s Roth IRA in DFIC, DFUS, DFAC. They suggested to go all in with all accounts in November 2021. Made no money for 2 years, then steadily underperformed the S&P500 when things picked back up in 2023 until 2025 when I fired them. I sold all that crap and put the money back in in April.
I’m a big fan of international ETFs that have some type of direct or indirect profitability screen. Pure international index funds have a lot of junk piled in b/c most countries don’t have great capital market infrastructure like the US so companies will dump garbage equity on the market to cash out. My favorites are IQLT, IGRO, VIGI, and DFIC. All very cheap and approach international investing just a little bit “smarter.”
