What is your opinion on synthetic etfs? As a rule, physical or optimized are always preferred.

I have transferred my portfolio from a robo to SC a few months ago and since then the

What would you do with this ETF? Just keep saving? Save for another physical/optimized S&P 500 and keep the position? Or sell the position and save for a physical/optimized one?

If I were to switch it would probably be to $CSPX, or do you guys have other recommendations?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Would keep it. Compare him if he has performed well used to continue saving, if not, then save another.

When I hear synthetic, the movie "The big short" immediately comes to mind

@Buy_and_Hold_Guni if you would read you would know that I have not decided for it but have taken the ETF from my Robo advisor so. My portfolio is irrelevant. I just want the opinion about the one product. Why do you need to know what else I have in my portfolio?

@Buy_and_Hold_Guni what exactly do you mean by smooth out? Sell and reallocate?

@Buy_and_Hold_Guni was honestly my plan as well. Only the taxes scare me a bit. Have a profit on the ETF and want to give up the eig reluctantly 🙈

@Buy_and_Hold_Guni not in Austria. You pay from the first cent.
