since we are on topic of tax optimisation, does it mean that you all don't buy US-domiciled ETF???

only buy their counterpart like Irish domiciled ETF??

Throughout Europe (e.g. Switzerland SWISS SIX/Germany XETRA/London LSE), usually the popular Irish funds are available in EUR, GBP and USD denomination.

Assuming non currency hedge class of a fund, after purchase you'll be owning securities tied to the underlying company stocks - partial ownership of the companies and not hard currency. The price just reflects the converted perceived value of the aggregated stocks in EUR/GBP/USD.

In the scenario:
i. S&P500 index is unchanged
ii. GBP currency rallies hard against the EUR and USD
iii. EUR currency drops against USD and GBP

USD denominated CSPX price unchanged
EUR denominated SXR8 price will increase
GBP denominated CSP1 price will drop
It's anyone's guess
Simply because they're different funds, they just happen to track the same index. They have their own net asset value and they can splice it up and set any initial price at inception they want. Even if they started out at the same price, they will eventually drift apart due to tracking error, expense ratio and dividend payout/reinvestment.

I like it better if they're priced higher, as each cent difference in bid/ask translates to lower % spread difference:
i. $50, bid/ask 49.99/50.01 = 0.04%
ii. $200, bid/ask 199.99/200.01 = 0.01%

Thanks!

Then I won't be transferring money to USD anymore, just EUR.

And you're holding EUR because you're retiring there/have kids planning to study there/foreseeable trip to EU?

no.... simply because it allows us to buy Irish-domiciled ETF.

and transferring money into EUR is easier than USD for IBKR.

VUSA has much higher trading volume according to Bloomberg, compared to SXR8. Is VUSA not preferable then?

anyone using TSG?

If you buy USD-denominated ETF in LSE, how do they charge you? Is it in GBP or USD?

USD, for the amount equivalent to GBP1.50 (min) or 0.12% of traded value whichever higher.

Typically GBP1.50 translates to USD1.90 - 1.95

so it costs 1USD extra to invest in Irish domiciled ETF, as opposed to US domiciled. So 12 months would be 12 USD extra per ETF. sad.gif

That would be 12 USD extra for 12 ETF...not per ETF

Fixed the logic for you... smile.gif

DCA in 12 months for 1 ETF = 12 USD. No? Because extra 1 USD per trade. icon_idea.gif

bought any during the pullback?

I'm "expecting" prices to break Monday's high tonight, and hopefully  Friday's high by weekend...

then again it could just crash from here...lol

still too high.... can't really average down...

if crash now, then it's good for me.

I just noticed that there's S&P500 ETF in S'pore stock exchange.

Why not just buy this one instead of SXR8?
