BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)
The first ETF that could be a great buy and hold option is the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF.
This ETF aims to track the performance of the NASDAQ-100 before fees and expenses. This index comprises 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on the NASDAQ stock market.
Among the 100 companies you'll be gaining access to are global giants such as Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia and Tesla.
Given the significant weakness on the Nasdaq index last year, now could be an opportune time to buy this exceptionally high quality group of shares with a long term view.
Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF (ASX: VGS)
Another ETF for investors to consider as a buy and hold option is the Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF.
This ETF provides investors with exposure to approximately 1,500 of the world's largest listed companies from major developed countries. This allows investors to participate in the long-term growth potential of international economies outside Australia.
In addition, the ETF can bring instant diversification to a portfolio thanks to its exposure to numerous sectors and countries.
Among the ETF's largest holdings are a good number of household names. This includes the likes of Apple, Johnson & Johnson, JP Morgan, Nestle, Procter & Gamble, and Visa.
