Which Vanguard Fund: FTSE All World v FTSE Global All Cap

Hey all,

Up until now I've invested in Vanguard's FTSE All World (VWRL )which is:
4k funds, 6 out of 7 on the risk scale and charges 0.22%.

But I see a lot of you are choosing Global All Cap (VAFTGAG) instead
7k stocks, 5 out of 7 risk, 0.23% charge

Vanguard also has an ESG (ethical?) version of the Global All Cap (V3AB) which seems popular
6k stocks, 6 out of 7 risk, 0.24% charge

What do any of you think about these 3 respective funds?

Thanks!

Good video about the differences.

You could try to do the same comparison for the funds you are looking at. I suspect that like Global All Cap vs Dev World Ex-UK, the lower number of stocks will still represent 75-80% of the other fund. It is the smaller investments in emerging markets which likely makes the difference in the number of stocks.

Thanks, that was a v helpful video, esp the charts in blue and orange about the size of the companies involved and developed/emerging markets.

I have about 50k in S&P 500. I'm in the UK and 40 years old. Should I leave it where it is or transfer it to a global tracker? All in one go or in bits and pieces? I hear what they say about not trying to time the market?!
