Hi Kara! Thanks great to hear that you are now encouraged to start investing. There are a few ETFs that I currently have in my portfolio, and most of them actually just follow broad indices like the S&P 500:
- SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust
- Vanguard S&P 500 ETF
- iShares S&P 500 Index
- Vanguard MSCI EAFE ETF
- Vanguard MSCI Emerging Markets ETF
My biggest holdings are SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust and Vanguard S&P 500 ETF. They are pretty similar so I actually don't think you need to have too many different ETFs that effectively cover the same set of companies.
Hi! Thanks for sharing this. Super useful and great encouragement for me to start investing :) Which ETFs are you invested in?
