Buna Mihai. I would indeed agree with Alex that I'm not seeing the reason for each of the ETFs. What is the reasoning for each position? I would, like you did a bit, focus on an All World ETF in the core and add 2 or 3 ETFs as flavor makers, depending on your risk profile. If you don't want to lose a lot the heavier I would go in the All World, like 70-80% of the portfolio. For the other 20-30% you can go riskier in Europe and Emerging Markets. Bonds I think are too early (unless you want a fixed income that is 3,5-4% annually, but you are still building a portfolio); Commodity markets I don't know, so I stay away from it. Then you got small caps and dividend-focused ETFs; those could be interesting strategies to follow (small versus big and growth versus dividends), but I think you complicate it when combining. On morningstar.com you can create an account and put all your positions in there, and run a scan to see how your portfolio is performing / overlapping in positions.

@Rsoeters thanks, I am working on reducing the number of ETFs, getting rid of distributing ones, and the commmodities one. It seems that I am too appocalyptic indeed. And it is true that commodities will not bring me any income long term. I used it only as precaution expecting a market crash. Now I don't want to sell it at a loss, but rather keep it and sell it later, without buying anymore.
Your feedback is much appreciated.
