BetaShares Cloud Computing ETF (ASX: CLDD)

The first ETF to look at is the BetaShares Cloud Computing ETF. This ETF aims to track the performance of the Indxx Global Cloud Computing Index, which includes leading global companies involved in the delivery of computing services, servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics and other services over the internet. Through this ETF, you'll be buying a slice of companies that look well-placed to benefit from the ongoing shift to the cloud. This includes the likes of Dropbox, Netflix, Shopify, and Zoom.

BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

Another exchange traded fund which could be worth looking at is the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF. As you might have guessed from its name, this exchange traded fund gives investors exposure to the 100 largest businesses on Wall Street's technology-focused NASDAQ index. This includes tech giants such as Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, Facebook/Meta, Microsoft, Netflix, and Nvidia. It is worth noting that there are also non-tech shares including Starbucks and PepsiCo.

Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF (ASX: VGS)

A final ETF for investors to look at is the Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF. This popular ETF provides investors with exposure to the world's largest listed companies. This means that rather than just investing in the Australian economy, investors can take part in the long term growth potential of international economies. Among the ~1,500 companies included in the ETF are Apple, Johnson & Johnson, JP Morgan, Nestle, and Visa.
