iShares Core MSCI EAFE ETF

Investors who want developed-market stocks outside the United States and Canada usually start here. The fund tracks the MSCI EAFE Investable Market Index, EAFE standing for Europe, Australasia and the Far East, and it reaches past the large caps into mid and small companies, so a single share holds thousands of names across Japan, the UK, France, Switzerland, Germany and Australia. BlackRock built it as a low-cost, buy-and-hold building block, which is why the fee is a few basis points rather than the richer cost of its older sibling EFA. People use it to fill the international-developed slice of a portfolio without picking countries or sectors. Currency matters here: returns are reported in dollars, so a strong dollar drags on results even when the underlying markets rise.
