Best ETFs for capital gains over dividends? Building my core ETF portfolio
Hey everyone! I'm finally starting to build my core ETF portfolio. I've been investing in individual stocks for over 10 years but feel it’s time to focus on ETFs for the long term. With less time to research stocks and a few bad picks along the way, ETFs seem like a better fit now. I’m looking at simple options like ETFs by Vanguard or similar ones that cover key areas (e.g., Australian and international shares). Has anyone found a specific ETF whose distributions tax wise are generally more capital gains weighted? I’d prefer to offset some carried-forward losses rather than having dividend distributions that I will be taxed on. VAS and portfolio options like VDHG look solid for their low fees and good performance, but as far as I can see don't generally distribute a larger capital gains portion? If there isn't any one etf ot two standing out then so be it. I just thought I’d ask!
Mia Evans.
