Hi Anon,

For your first ETF, you should pick a low-cost ETF that tracks a broad index like the S&P 500 or an all-world index. This will help you to minimise costs and capture decent market returns. Some you can consider include the following:

S&P 500: VOO, SPY, IVV, CSPX

World index: VT, IWDA, SWRD, VWRA

Any of these will be a good foundation to have for your portfolio, and you can then diversify your portfolio to include other areas of the market either by market cap, industry, or country/region.

Hope this helps & all the best!

Regards,

Best Salary account in terms of interest rates, ETFs investing and SRS? Considering spending only via credit/debit cards, is ETFs investing viable?

As a newbie in investment, what's the difference for the STI ETF and Phillip Sing Income ETF? Which is recommended or should I invest in both?

I'm 23 and in my penultimate year. I want to earn passive income by investing in ETFs through DBS Invest-Saver RSP. Which out of the 4 ETFs available will give the best dividends?

Should I further diversify and start investing in Syfe Equity100 if I am already investing in STI ETF, 2 ARK ETFs and 2 Stashaway portfolios (12% & 36%)? How should I best allocate $1000 monthly?

If I am looking to invest in ETFs each month, is the best way to invest through a bank (POSB Invest-Saver/ OCBC/ etc)? Or are there better ways you would recommend?
