Low cost ETF is the way to go! September P/L challenge #6 (200words count entry)
Low cost ETF is the way to go! Sometimes the most simple and boring way is the best
If u refer to my moofolio, u can see I allocated quite a large % of it in $SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY.US)$ alongside $Advisorshares Trust Pure Us Cannabis Etf (MSOS.US)$ which had a whopping 470% gains!
Ranking of gains:
①ETFs
②AI boom with Nvidia selling the golden shovel
③Meme stocks
A single stock pick is incredibly hard to constantly pick the correct single stock and beat the market returns unless u are Warren Buffett
