Currently invested in VTI and ARKK.
Probably looking to add one of the QQQ(s), thinking of QQQJ, anyone has any views on this or on recommended ETFs?

QUOTE(wongmunkeong @ Feb 18 2021, 10:12 AM) may i understand why QQQ? I was looking at VGT as well seeing as the top holdings of VTI and QQQ has a higher similarities compared to that of VGT.if tech or new economy companies targeted, U may want to revisit Vanguard's ETF - VGT. I think Vanguard itself will explain why i'd prefer VGT to QQQ if i want exposure to a specific pool of tech / new economy companies note - not a push / recommendation ya, just sharing personal thoughts as i've tech/new econ +properties +value ETFs lined up to shoot at XD AMZN and TSLA seems to be two heavyweight omitted from VGT as well. Wouldn't be missing TSLA too much since I have ARKK. |

QUOTE(naranjero @ Feb 18 2021, 10:50 AM) I am currently invested in VWRA and bonds too. That seems to be quite a low risk portfolio.Imho 50:50 all world etf and bond should be best risk return... but I overweighted equity a little bit and added some mutual fund for alpha return. How long have you been holding them? |

QUOTE(murzark @ Feb 18 2021, 04:58 PM) VGT does not have Amazon, Facebook, Google and Netflix. I think Vanguard put those companies in another ETFs. You're right. Just realised there's a couple more big names left out from VGT.QQQ has all FAANG. If you are looking for FAANG heavy ETFs, you can look at IGM and IYW. IGM is interesting because they have something like where they cap max weight to ~8.5%, to avoid those gigantic market cap companies (i.e. Microsoft and Apple) from dominating the holdings. Although the expense ratio is a bit high. IGM is 0.48% and IYW is 0.44%. Might not be for you. Expense ratio for IGM and IYW is in fact bit too high for my liking (irony in my having ARKK). Are you in on IGM/IYW? |

QUOTE(merchant9 @ Aug 2 2021, 03:16 PM) Wow, thanks for your prompt response, the link I refer to is here: https://www.thefrugalstudent.com/why-im-not...-domiciled-etfs Another thing to take into account for US ETFs is the estate tax that kicks in once you accumulated USD60,000.I was set on CSPX but then when I saw this article, I felt like I made the wrong choice. What's your view on this? wongmunkeong liked this post
