Are you looking to make some additions to your portfolio? If exchange traded funds (ETFs) are of interest to you, then you might want to look at the three listed below.
Here's what you need to know about them:
BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)
It has been a nightmare year for the normally reliable BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF. Since the start of 2022, the hugely popular ETF has lost 26% of its value. While this is disappointing, it could prove to be one of the best buying opportunities in years for patient investors. That's because this ETF is home to 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on the famous NASDAQ index. This means you'll be buying household names such as Google parent Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta (Facebook), Microsoft, Netflix, Nvidia, Starbucks, and Tesla.
VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF (ASX: MOAT)
Another ETF for smart investors to look at is the VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF. This ETF aims to provide investors with a way to invest in the type of shares that Warren Buffett buys. That's because the index it tracks has strict rules that means it only contains shares that are attractively priced and have sustainable competitive advantages or moats. The ETF changes constituents periodically, but generally it holds 50 shares at any given time. Right now, these include Alphabet (Google), Boeing, Intel, Kellogg Co, and Walt Disney.
Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF (ASX: VGS)
A final ETF for smart investors to consider is the Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF. This popular ETF provides investors with exposure to ~1,500 of the world's largest listed companies. This means that investors can use the fund to take part in the (eventual) long term growth potential of international economies. Among the many shares that you'll be investing in are giants such as Amazon, Apple, JP Morgan, Nestle, and Visa.
