Vanguard

4.6
(146)
"There are a lot of reasons I love my 50/50 VOO SCHD split. SCHD’s lower volatility offsets VOO’s market swings, smoothing out my portfolio’s performance."
·
"VOO is self sufficient and perfect."
·
"50% VOO"
·
"In a roth ira the following destroys just holding voo 50% voo 25% qqqm 25% schd"
·
"Investors seeking a diversified approach may consider Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) for broad market exposure"
·
"In terms of starting out with etf’s, one can’t go wrong with VTI for 30+ years."
·
"50% VOO (SP 500)"
·
"15% VXUS (Intnl)"
·
"Just invest 70% into Vanguard S&P 500 Acc and 30% into Vanguard All World Acc"

"SCHD’s lower volatility offsets VOO’s market swings, smoothing out my portfolio’s performance."
·
"50% SCHD"
·
"SCHD compliments VOO well (not a lot of overlap)."
·
"This is the way."
·
"Is my go to Roth IRA fund"
·
"If you’re looking for S&P500."
·
"Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (SCHD) for stability and income"
·
"SCHD, FTEC or VGT, AVUV, VXUS. Pretty simple"
·
"SCHG has a 5Y return of 146% while VOO has a 5Y return of 91%."
·
"Add 25% growth to boost your return. Approach 40 add SCHD, money printer and Dividend Growth."
·

Invesco

"For long-term investing, Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) is a strong choice due to its historical outperformance of the S&P 500 and heavy exposure to high-growth technology and AI-driven companies."
·
"VOO and QQQ"
·
"If you’re looking into qqq for long term I suggest qqqm. It’s the exact same holdings and weightings with a slightly lower expense ratio."
·
"Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) - Focused on large-cap tech stocks in the NASDAQ-100, QQQ has had strong performance"
·
"QQQ has twice the gains of VOO and VTI over the long term."
·
"Has done me right through the years."
·
"I would probably go QQQM for the slightly lower cost in order to accumulate more shares more quickly."
·
"Personally, I have started investing in the Invesco FTSE All-World (FWRA). Because this FTSE All-World defines small caps a little differently, so it covers the top small caps."
·
"Splg (S&P 500) is pretty much the standard, Qqqm if you want more growth (Nasdaq 100)."
·
"20% QQQM (Nasdaq 100)"
·

SPDR

(10)
"For highest returns at lowest risk, a fully diversified portfolio like 100% SPYI is optimal."
·
"You can also go with SPYY, which is closer to VWCE, large and mid cap developed world plus emerging market, without (or minimal) small cap."
·
"I suggested long term (Splg) and dividend etfs (Schd/Dgro)."
·
"You should look at total return. Splg (S&P 500) is pretty much the standard, Qqqm if you want more growth (Nasdaq 100)."
·
"VOO + AVUV + VXUS + BND + GLD for gold exposure"
·
"SPLG + QQQM"
·
"Cheapest expense ratio and cheapest price"
·
"Buy some SPLG n check in at 60 years old."
·
"I have VOO. Both VOO and SPY are S&P500 index. Though if you look into it, S&P500 is dominated with tech stocks like APPLE, MSFT and GOOG."
·
"SPY is like vanilla ice cream-mostly good, most times and a good entrylevel ETF. I also like Vanguard VTI too."

"If I had to pick one and only one and live by it, I would likely pick AVUV."
·
"10% AVUV (US small cap value)"
·
"Probably either VOO and chill or VOO and a little bit of a tilt to QQQ and or AVUV."
·
"VOO + AVUV + VXUS for additional tinkering"
·
"AVUV or VIOV (choose one) at a roughly 4:1 ratio of VOO:Other."
·
"Avuv is an actively managed small cap ETFs and is highly regarded."
·
"Same with XMMO (mid cap momentum) and AVUV (small-cap value)."
·
"AVUV + SCHG , also a small position in SCHD for Large cap value wouldn’t hurt."
·
"With a mix of QQQ and AVUV for diversification in tech and small caps."
·
"AVUV , SCHG , SCHD"

iShares

"IOO all the way"
·
"Personally I would go with XEQT. I have this in my TFSA. - 100% equities whereas equities generally provide greater returns over the long term. - cheap MER - very diversified (No such thing as too diversified in my opinion) - Rebalancing is done for you and IIRC withholding taxes are already taken off before you receive the dividend."
·
"XEQT and VEQT owns pretty much everything. So it’s a great product for the longterm that requires nothing from you."
·
"Buy etf that track S&P 500 and if you want better diversification buy All-world ETF. Im european so for me it's CSPX and IWDA pick some equivalent of it."
·
"TLT is great but do your research how bonds actually work."
·
"If you want to try convertibles, take a look at ICVT by iShares."
·
"TLT, ZROZ, GOVS. Bonds require some timing though so do your research."
