3 fantastic ASX ETFs to buy after the market selloff

Let's see why these funds could be top buy-the-dip contenders.

Key points
  • The recent market selloff has created an opportunity to buy high-quality Australian tech stocks at a discount, with the BetaShares Technology ETF seeing a rare 20% drop.
  • As sentiment pulled back sharply against speculative assets, the BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF was hit hardest, sliding 34%, yet the long-term digital asset trend remains strong.
  • Despite only an 8% dip, the BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF offers exposure to tech giants benefiting from major growth areas like AI and e-commerce.

The share market has been rattled this month, with interest rate uncertainty and renewed fears of an AI-driven bubble sparking a sharp pullback in technology stocks.

After a strong run in recent years, investors suddenly turned cautious, sending some of the market's most popular stocks into retreat.

But while volatility can feel uncomfortable, it also creates opportunity, especially when high-quality growth themes go on sale.

Here are three ASX ETFs that have been sold off but could now offer compelling value for long-term investors.

BetaShares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF (ASX: ATEC)

The first ASX ETF that could be a buy after the selloff is the BetaShares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF. It has fallen around 20% from its recent high.

This fund tracks Australia's leading technology companies. This includes names like WiseTech Global Ltd (ASX: WTC), TechnologyOne Ltd (ASX: TNE), and Xero Ltd (ASX: XRO).

A 20% pullback doesn't happen often in a basket of high-quality tech names, and for patient investors, these corrections have historically been attractive entry points. Betashares recently named this fund as one to consider buying.

BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF (ASX: CRYP)

The BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF could be another ASX ETF to buy after the selloff. It has been hit even harder, sliding 34% as risk appetite faded.

Concerns around central bank policy and a broader tech selloff pushed investors out of more speculative segments of the market, and crypto-related stocks were among the hardest hit.

It holds stocks such as Coinbase Global (NASDAQ: COIN), MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR), and major bitcoin miners, businesses that tend to rise and fall sharply with sentiment.

But despite the volatility, the long-term trend toward digital assets, blockchain adoption, and tokenised finance continues to build. When fear peaks, prices often disconnect from fundamentals, and that can create opportunities for long-term investors who can tolerate short-term swings.

BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)

The BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF is a third ASX ETF that has pulled back recently. It has fallen 8% from its peak.

This fund invests in leading Asian tech giants, including heavyweights such as Tencent (SEHK: 700), Alibaba (NYSE: BABA), PDD Holdings (NASDAQ: PDD), and Baidu (NASDAQ: BIDU). These all have significant exposure to long-term growth themes including AI, cloud services, e-commerce, and advanced semiconductors.

And while an 8% pullback may not sound dramatic, in a sector with this level of long-term potential, every discount counts.
