Quick trivial question about EM vs Europe:

I am relatively at the beginning of my investment career. My investment horizon is therefore +30 years.

I am currently saving the $IWDA (+0.19%) and the $SMEA (-0.73%) The original idea was to overweight Europe.

Now I'm wondering whether the overweighting makes sense or whether I'd be better off investing in the $SMEA (-0.73%) should I switch to the $IEMA (-0.23%) should be reallocated. A combination of all three ETFs would of course also be conceivable.

What do you think?

There is generally nothing against it, weighting is just personal preference.
Some people want 30% EM, whereas I want 0% - my 20% goes into the $INR

All in $IWDA or take an All World.

Okay. Because people always talk about the model portfolio World + EM. But the performance of EM in recent years has not been nearly as good as in Europe. Can change, of course. Crystal ball.
