Is State Street SPDR MSCI EAFE StrategicFactors ETF (QEFA) a Strong ETF Right Now?
QEFA, a smart beta ETF launched in 2014 with $1.03 billion in assets, tracks the MSCI EAFE Factor Mix A-Series Index focusing on value, low volatility, and quality factors across developed markets. With a 0.30% expense ratio, 10.87% YTD return, and 15.44% one-year return, the fund offers medium risk (beta 0.68) with 638 holdings. However, the article suggests investors seeking outperformance should consider cheaper alternatives like IEFA (0.07% expense ratio) or EFA.

Better International ETF: Schwab's SCHF vs. the iShares IEFA
The article compares two international equity ETFs targeting developed markets outside the U.S. SCHF offers a lower expense ratio (0.03% vs 0.07%) and stronger 1-year performance (29.3% vs 21.8%), with significant exposure to South Korean semiconductor companies. IEFA provides greater scale ($196B AUM), broader diversification (2,616 holdings), and higher dividend yield (3.3% vs 3.0%). The choice depends on investor priorities: SCHF for AI/semiconductor exposure and lower costs, IEFA for liquidity and small-cap international exposure.

Getting International Exposure in ETFs Isn't Always an Easy Choice. Is SPGM or IEFA the Better Buy for 2026?
SPGM and IEFA offer different approaches to international equity exposure. SPGM provides global exposure including 63% U.S. holdings and has outperformed IEFA with 23.1% one-year returns versus 19.9%. IEFA focuses exclusively on developed markets outside North America with higher dividend yield (3.4% vs 1.8%) and lower expense ratio (0.07% vs 0.09%). The choice depends on whether investors already have U.S. exposure elsewhere in their portfolio.

IXUS vs. IEFA: Which International ETF Is Better for Most Investors?
The article compares two iShares international ETFs: IXUS (Total International Stock ETF) and IEFA (EAFE ETF). Both have low fees (0.07%) and strong diversification, but IXUS holds over 4,000 stocks across more markets including emerging economies, while IEFA focuses on developed markets with about 2,600 stocks. IXUS is more tech-heavy (21% in tech) and has outperformed the S&P 500 over the past year and decade, while IEFA offers higher dividend yields (3.3%) and less exposure to AI-related volatility. For long-term investors seeking diversification, IXUS is recommended due to its broader geographic exposure and superior historical performance.
