Fidelity Foreign Index(s)

Difference between the two total foreign index funds at fidelity

Fidelity® International Index Fund (FSPSX) - ER 0.045%
Fidelity® Total International Index (FTIHX) - ER 0.06%

The Bogleheads wiki shows that FTIHX is comparable to the vanguard VTIAX - total international stock index.

Is there a significant difference in the two fidelity funds above other than the ER? I ask because I have both in my IRA due to some rollovers...was thinking of consolidating into one or the other.

FSPSX is missing the emerging markets component of international. EM makes up about 20% of non-US markets. I would use the complete fund myself, just as I use a total US fund rather than an S&P 500 fund.

I agree - total fund is the way to go
