Q: I'm thinking about adding some US real estate to the US portion of my portfolio as it should do well if inflation does well. What do you think of VNQ? And what percentage of my US holdings, relative to my US stocks would make sense? 20% and then 80% in stocks?

Q: I'm glad you agree with my conclusion of XRE vs US REITS. The heart of my question was on VNQ (my apology for messing up the symbol) and if not VNQ what can you recommend as a suitable US REIT ETF?
