Reading. Fees of 0,09 % per year represent 9 € collected each year for 10 000 € invested, directly in the share value. "US stocks" ETFs cover either the entire market (more than 3 000 companies), or large caps: their composition closely mirrors that of an S&P 500 ETF. The positions come from the issuer's publications; performance is calculated on the closing prices of the VDC listing, dividends not reinvested, in the listing currency.
