A year of buying VWO
Over the last 39 days VWO closed between $59.02 (October 1, 2026) and $61.46 (September 7, 2026). One hundred dollars put in at the low would be worth $101 today; at the high, $97. The current price $59.78 is above 10 of those 39 daily closes, so a purchase on a random day of that stretch would be in profit 26% of the time — fees aside.
A typical day moves VWO by 1.2%: a $1,000 position swings about $12 a day.
