High yield ETFs

[divs4ever]

It's unfair I know but I blame you. First time I have ever look at it and it's likely to be the last. No way could I get my head around this. Seems to be it holds IVV and the rest is cash or forward contracts

iShares S&P 500 (AUD Hedged) ETF | IHVV

The fund aims to provide investors with the performance of the S&P 500 Hedged AUD Index, before fees and expenses. The index is designed to measure the AUD hedged performance of large capitalisation US equities.

yep that looks logical

it's tiny details like that i keep waffling on about

i avoided US focused ETFs but have seen other seemingly small details magnify the differences in other ETFs

so then , what are the chances most of the gain is currency exchange rates ??

just asking , because unless there is 'a special sauce ' in some tiny detail somewhere the hedging could be the difference ( currency hedging can be a pain or a bonus )

Negative chances. The AUD has pulled as the major U.S indexes have increased, actually eating away at your gains.

The U.S markets have just increased faster than the AUD has so it's a net positive for you.
