New Vanguard Admiral Funds Today
« on: February 07, 2019, 05:31:51 PM »
Just wanted to spread the good news in case you haven't heard, Vanguard opened several new mutual fund admiral shares today:

  • Vanguard FTSE Social Index Fund (VFTAX)
  • Vanguard FTSE All-World ex-US Small-Cap Index Fund (VFSAX)
  • Vanguard High Dividend Yield Index Fund (VHYAX)
  • Vanguard Long-Term Bond Index Fund (VBLAX)
  • Vanguard Total World Stock Index Fund (VTWAX)

As a global weight investor, I've been excited about the new Vanguard Total World Stock Index Fund Admiral Shares (VTWAX) for a while now and just today exchanged all the VTSAX and VTIAX in our IRAs into it. At 0.10% ER, it's certainly worth the simplicity. On the next big dip I plan to TLH my taxable VTSAX and VTIAX to exchange them for VTWAX as well.

I got excited about VFSAX until I noticed the expense ratio is still higher than VSS. Still better than the whopping 0.25% of the Investor fund though. I guess I'll be sticking with the ETF for the time being.

Interesting to see that VFTSX has outperformed VTSAX over the past decade. Makes VFSAX look quite appealing.
