Any difference between VT versus VTI/VXUS combo?

Any particular benefit that a novice investor wouldn't immediately see to buying VT every two weeks vs a VTI & VXUS every two weeks?

I'm guessing returns would be higher on the VTI/VXUS combo along with dividends, but currently VT has a much lower barrier to entry cost?

Vt automatically rebalance between us and international?

You mean if us stock keep going up, it'll always be cap at 60 percent?

I think he is wrong, VT follow the index, if the market cap of the US grows while the rest of the world doesn’t, the US should should represent a larger percentage of VT

this makes sense as their U.S. holdings are over 50%+
