Investing In Europe: IEV Or EZU?

  • European equities are rebounding in 2025, outperforming US stocks, driven by a stronger euro, increased defense spending, and pro-growth German policies. IEV and EZU are both strong ETF options for European exposure but differ in country allocations—EZU excludes the UK and Switzerland, focusing on the Eurozone. EZU offers higher weighting to Germany, more diversification, and a lower expense ratio compared to IEV, which has significant UK exposure and higher fees.
