VT greatly underperforms.

You can add to or modify the testfolio link I posted (VT is too short, so use VTSIM).

Portfolio Visualizer shows the same thing. https://www.portfoliovisualizer.com/backtest-asset...

Thanks for mentioning VT. I've had VT as a low key thing to consider maybe someday, but never looked closely at it.
Now that I have run backtest comparisons with VT, it's now in my "never" basket. **shudder**
