So, would this be the best current alternative to US fonds?

It has decent enough 1yr and 5yr growth.

No such thing as a best fund though, as your rhetorical question already implies.

Just bought 120 shares of EUAD myself, which is an ETF of all the larger EU defense companies. It's a good time to buy too, with all of the money being pumped into defense over there and the markets being down ;)

Sounds interesting, I tried to find something like this but only found VanGuard Defense which includes US defense stocks as well. I can't find it via "EUAD" though, do you have the full name or id?

Full name is "Select STOXX Europe Aerospace & Defense ETF"

Huh strange, somehow my bank (ING DiBa) doesn't have that or won't let me find it. :/
