(M)a decision for Europe

I don't think American investment banks necessarily have to earn money with our money. Europeans can also do a decent job with an ETF.

That's why I exchanged my core today, which I was still able to do well as it had only existed for a few months anyway. So from a tax point of view, it's within manageable limits.

Vanguards $VWRL (-0.26%) flew out and Amundis $WEBG (-0.08%) came in almost 1:1 instead.

Maybe that's a suggestion for all those who are currently reorienting themselves or starting over anyway?

That is why I prefer to invest in ETFs from Xtrackers (if ETFs on the index are available)

However, Amundi is also known for closing or merging ETFs. Which is then unattractive from a tax point of view, if you are in the profit zone, because you then have to sell. But fine, if you think so, go for it.

@ScorpionfromBW Thanks for the tip. I was not aware of this.

@ScorpionfromBW That's why I'm getting rid of amundi. Too much back and forth for me. And I also prefer the Americans to the French 😬

Are the fees similar? Volume helps firms lower the fees
