The Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF gained 1.06 percent to €162.56 on July 30, 2026, as stronger-than-expected European economic data helped counterbalance a slowdown in US growth.
US GDP expanded at an annualized rate of 1.5 percent in the second quarter, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis.

In contrast, Eurostat's preliminary data showed the eurozone economy grew 0.4 percent in the same period, doubling consensus estimates.
Spain expanded 0.7 percent, while Germany posted 0.2 percent growth, providing a structural counterweight for the ETF, which holds 61.8 percent of its portfolio in US equities.
"The positive surprise effect from Europe acts as a buffer against weaker US data on days like this," noted the fund's managers.
