Relative Returns By Equity Asset Class

For those of you who separate your equity class into US domestic, and foreign (world ex US); or into US domestic, non-US developed and non-US emerging countries; here are 1-yr, 5-yr, 10-yr and 20-yr charts of the relative performance of each class.

ETFs that you might use as proxies for those classes are:

• (VTI), (SPY) or (IWM) for US domestc
• (VEU) for world excluding US (includes Canada)
• (EFA) for non-US developed (excludes Canada)
• (EEM) or (VWO) for non-US emerging (does not include frontier markets)
• If you want Canada in the mix, you might use (EWC) to complement EFA.
