Evaluation of Vanguard FTSE All-World ex-US Small-Cap ETF downgraded after the last trading session
(Updated on Nov 17, 2025)
The Vanguard FTSE All-World ex-US Small-Cap ETF price fell by -1.16% on the last day (Monday, 17th Nov 2025) from $141.72 to $140.07. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.36% from a day low at $139.61 to a day high of $141.50. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days but is still down by -1.59% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day by 206 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 387 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $54.26 million.
The ETF has broken the narrow and horizontal trend down. Breaks like this are often followed by swift and strong movements, and any correction down to the breakline at approximately $140.09 is considered to be a "second chance" to get out before further fall. It is, however, important to note that false breaks may appear and that the price may move back into the horizontal trend. A break on increasing volume is considered to be more significant and reliable than breaks on low volume.
VSS Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, November 06, 2025, and so far it has risen 0.143%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Vanguard FTSE All-World ex-US Small-Cap ETF holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the ETF. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $141.50 and $142.30. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the ETF should be followed more closely.
Double Bottom Formation
A buy signal from a double bottom formation was found on Thursday, November 06, 2025 and based on theory for this formation the price should go up by 5.30% to $147.49 within 19 trading days (Thursday, December 04, 2025) since signal was issued.
