Are ETFs your BFF in tough times?
There’s been a plethora of exchange-traded-funds released in the last few years - around 43 in the Australian market alone last year. And the US is through the roof. There’s an ETF for everything it would seem. Not only are they more economical and an easy way to get real or better diversification than in a portfolio of individual stocks, but they’re being used as a hedge against market volatility in these challenging times. We talk to Global X ETFs Head of Distribution Kanish Chugh about the rise in the investment type, how they work, what to consider, thematic investing highs and lows, some of the wild and wacky ETFs, why low fees matter, what’s true diversification and much more.
