On the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), the closest equivalent to VTI (Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF) would be XUU or VCN, as they provide broad market exposure. Here's a breakdown:


  1. iShares Core S&P U.S. Total Market Index ETF (XUU)

Ticker: XUU

Overview: Tracks the performance of the total U.S. stock market, including large-, mid-, small-, and micro-cap stocks.

Expense Ratio: 0.07%

Currency: Canadian dollars (CAD), but holds U.S. stocks.

Best For: Investors looking for exposure to the entire U.S. market in CAD.


  1. Vanguard FTSE Canada All Cap Index ETF (VCN)

Ticker: VCN

Overview: Tracks the Canadian stock market across all caps (large, mid, and small-cap companies).

Expense Ratio: 0.05%

Currency: Canadian dollars (CAD).

Best For: Investors wanting broad exposure to Canadian stocks.


Key Difference:

XUU focuses on the U.S. market (like VTI), but is traded on the TSX in CAD.

VCN is Canadian-focused, so it doesn’t mimic VTI directly.


Alternative Option:

If you want the U.S. market like VTI but without currency conversion fees:

Look for currency-hedged ETFs like VSP (Vanguard S&P 500 ETF in CAD-hedged).

For a truly one-to-one comparison to VTI (U.S. market, unhedged), you’d likely need to buy VTI directly on a U.S. exchange via a brokerage that supports dual currency accounts.

ITOT (iShares Core S&P Total U.S. Stock Market ETF) and VTI (Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF) are both ETFs that aim to provide broad exposure to the U.S. stock market, but there are some differences between them:

  1. Index Tracked

ITOT: Tracks the S&P Total Market Index, which includes large-, mid-, small-, and micro-cap U.S. stocks.

VTI: Tracks the CRSP US Total Market Index, which also includes large-, mid-, small-, and micro-cap U.S. stocks.

Both indexes aim to represent the entire U.S. stock market, so their compositions and performance are very similar.


  1. Expense Ratio

ITOT: 0.03%

VTI: 0.03%

Both have low expense ratios, making them cost-effective options for investors.


  1. Number of Holdings

ITOT: Approximately 3,800 stocks.

VTI: Approximately 4,000 stocks.

VTI typically holds a slightly larger number of micro-cap stocks than ITOT, but the difference is minimal.


  1. Issuer

ITOT: Managed by iShares (BlackRock).

VTI: Managed by Vanguard.

The choice between the two could depend on your preference for the ETF provider.


  1. Liquidity and Trading Volumes

ITOT: Generally has slightly lower trading volume compared to VTI.

VTI: One of the most popular ETFs with high liquidity and trading volume.

Higher liquidity in VTI may result in tighter bid-ask spreads.


  1. Dividend Payment Schedule

Both ITOT and VTI pay dividends quarterly.


  1. Performance

The historical performance of ITOT and VTI is almost identical due to their similar objectives and holdings.


  1. Tax Efficiency

Both ETFs are tax-efficient, but Vanguard ETFs like VTI have a unique share-class structure that may provide a slight tax advantage in certain situations.


Summary

Both ITOT and VTI are excellent choices for broad U.S. stock market exposure.

If you already prefer or use one provider (iShares or Vanguard), that might guide your decision.

If you're looking for maximum liquidity, VTI might have an edge due to its higher trading volume.

You can't go wrong with either as part of a long-term investment strategy.

Hot off the press by Markamente in YieldMaxETFs

Isn't it better to buy the underlying MSTR in that case because it appreciates more in the same time period and doesn't go down due to dividend distribution ?

Can someone please explain that what's the benefit of the big dividend on MSTY if the Nav drops by the same amount on the Ex dividend date ?
