Hasn't its performance been significantly worse than VTI? Not that VXUS has been around that long. But I think even if you retroactively made it 50 years ago it would've performed a lot worse than VTI, no? I get the wanting exposure to international, but at that point why not be a bit more focused on a region/country etf outside the US? The world is full of garbage after all, so why buy all of it?
