Being new to investing, I am thinking of buying into Tech stocks because the returns look solid and ETFs and bonds returns seem very low. Should I do that?

As recommended by Harvey VGT is the best instrument for (mostly) the U.S. tech market. For China Tech then consider: CQQQ and for Asia Tech generally on the australian stock exchange: ASIA.

Potential for backdrop notwithstanding Technology is the driver of progress and growth. I feel that the technology sector will outperform in the future.

This is really up to you. Firstly, you have to analysi which industry do you think looks to benefit/grow (In your case it is tech industry), following which you need to analyse which company in this particular sector stand to (i) benefit, (ii) has a moat for its product aand (iii) has a strong baalnce sheet capable of execution and withstanding black swan events. This is basically how you do stock picking

Buy what you know, do your own due diligence. Not all stocks are made equal

Hey David,

Be it if you want to invest in tech, healthcare, oil & gas or other industries, I would only have 1 advice for you - Do Your Due Diligience. What I mean by that is rather than just looking at the returns, dive deep into the business you are looking at. How are their financials? Are they over-valued right now? Is it a value trap? What you are thinking above is something I've thought too - it's a "general belief" created by yourself just by looking at the surface. However, deep inside you might actually uncover some worms.

That will build up your investing knowledge and conviction as well which will be super valuable!
