Why I buy VEQT

I know that one day does not describe long-term investing, but looking at today’s changes as an example:

VFV up 1.78%
VCE up 1.38%
VIU up 3.93%

No way I’m predicting that today international markets beat the American and Canadian markets, combined. No way I can predict any better in the near or far future either. VEQT protects me from all of that in one simple package.
