Five year outperform. Easy call since I expect this fund to at least keep track with the S&P500. More to the point, low borrowing costs mean the stocks in this fund are buyout candidates/acquisition targets. Any rise in buyout activity will give lift to this ETF.

It's a mid-cap proxy of the World Economy.

A relatively conservative and well diversified ETF that has slightly more growth potential than the S&P.

Steadily beat the S & P so far. Seems to have a good chance to keep up the pace.

Will slightly outperform S&P over the long term just because the S&P is big and slow and midcaps are, well, midcaps. :)
