Hi all,
I have a two part question (sorry in advance if either of them are noob questions):
1. I am trying to get some clarity on which ETF is the best for exposure to anything related to ‘the future’?
I am reticent of the idea of trying to pick the winners so presumably investing in this way would safe guard against losing bets, though I understand it might reduce the ‘maximum’ return available if one was to pick winning individual companies. But, I also believe a future focused ETF would yield a better return than just QQQ, for example, especially just VOO.
Something that includes AI, Robotics, Space, Data Centre Infrastructure, Energy companies… US with some International exposure is even better!
2. Ignoring that an ETF focused on this industry is risky in general (although something wildly bizarre would have to occur for the world to not end up centred on these industries), is there a glaring risk in investing in an ETF like this from the perspective of the organisation running it? For example, I would trust VOO, VTI, iShares, QQQ, etc. But to cherry pick one name, Cathy Wood’s ARK, while I don’t know a lot about this ETF, I have seen controversies about her.
So, is there any risk that investing in a newer, lesser known ETF could mismanage funds and/or tank in its own right, separate to what happens to the tickers in that fund?
Thank you in advance!
