A while back I started investing in VUAA etf (EUR, Accumulating). All is fine, but I just noticed that more people are choosing VUSA (EUR, Distributing).
At first I made the decision to invest in Accumulating because I thought id get more share by auto dividend reinvesting (id rather not pay taxes for now), but apparently those dividends don't buy you more stock, they just increase the stocks value.
However, I just compared VUAA with VUSA and they are both gaining almost identical returns (well VUAA did very so slightly better, but definitely not as better or close as div yield). So why is it that VUAA not getting better returns if we are not getting any dividends paid out? Wouldn't I get more by reinvesting dividends myself or am I misunderstanding something?
