1
The Vanguard Total World Stock ETF (VT) and State Street SPDR MSCI ACWI Climate Paris Aligned ETF (NZAC) share the same top three holdings: Nvidia, Apple, and Microsoft. — This indicates that despite different philosophical mandates, both funds are heavily reliant on the performance of a few mega-cap tech stocks.
+0.20
2
NZAC has a significantly higher concentration risk, with its top 10 holdings representing 28% of the fund's assets compared to VT's 10,024 diversified holdings. — Higher concentration increases volatility and risk if the top-weighted companies face downturns.
+0.10

VT offers a lower expense ratio of 0.06% compared to NZAC's 0.12%. — Lower costs provide a marginal long-term advantage for buy-and-hold investors in a broad market index.
