What is an ETF?

More about a time-saving super stock: ETFs

ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) are a bundle of stocks that you can buy as one 🤩

It's like buying a carton of eggs instead of purchasing 12 individually 🥚

ETFs can group stocks based on industry, company location or company size 🥇

Picking stocks can be confusing and time consuming 😨

ETFs let you invest in hundreds of stocks with just one purchase ⚡

You can even invest in ETFs that track the whole stock market, like SPY and VOO, which track the S&P 500 ! 🧮

ETFs and Diversification go hand in hand 🤝

By investing in multiple stocks at once, you can reduce risk in the long run, without having to research hundreds of stocks! 🦺

Many ETFs also offer dividends, or quarterly payouts to investors just for keeping the stock 🤯
