Buy Hold Sell, by Livewire Markets
Business:Investing
Blame Canada! That's where exchange-traded funds (ETF) came from; the inaugural fund, known as Toronto Index Participation Shares (TIPS), listed in 1990 and tracked the country's biggest companies. In 1993 State Street replicated this idea for the S&P 500, and for a long time ETFs were spruiked as a low-cost, core investment.
While ETFs now track everything weird and wonderful, today James Whelan of VFS Group and Charlie Viola of Pitcher Partners go back to the basics and offer tips on ASX ETFs for core investments.
They include 1) Vanguard Australian Shares Index ETF – A widely-used ETF for broad Australian market exposure; 2) iShares S&P 500 ETF - A popular choice for access to U.S. stocks, and 3) ETF Securities Physical Gold ETF - A commodity product riding strong interest in the precious metal. They each also bring one ETF that they expect will generate solid returns for long-term investors.
