Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: XIC and VCN. Which one of these two ETFs do you prefer and Why?

Many Thanks

5i Research Answer:

While VCN claims to be 'all cap' its average market capitalization of holdings is $68B. That's actually higher than XIC ($67B). Performance over 5-years is near identical so we would be largely indifferent overall here. Fees are also the same.
