Original Reddit post

Author outlines a 2026 allocation plan to reduce VWRL exposure over time due to AI bubble concerns and US diversification needs.

VWRL.L — AVOID The author believes an AI bubble will pop within the next few years, possibly not this year, and therefore wants to move away from a heavy VWRL allocation over time. The causal rationale is that US structural challenges and unpredictability make diversification away from US equities desirable. They still see the US as a key growth driver, so this is a gradual reduction rather than a full exit.

in my view the AI bubble will pop in the next few years…maybe just not this year so I want to move away from such a heavy balance in VWRL over time.
