10 Best ETFs For A Long-Term Buy-And-Hold Strategy

Whether you’re looking for a long-term investment strategy or an easy way to diversify your portfolio, ETFs can help. But the world of exchange-traded funds is vast and complex, so it’s important to do your research before investing in any given fund.

Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO)

You can’t go wrong with Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO). As the largest ETF in the world, VOO tracks the S&P 500 and offers exposure to nearly 1,700 companies. It has a 0.04% expense ratio, making it incredibly efficient for long-term investors.

In addition to being a good choice for buy-and-hold investors, VOO also works well as a core holding in a diversified portfolio of other ETFs from different asset classes like fixed income or real estate.

This is especially true if you’re looking for broad market exposure but don’t want to put all your eggs in one basket by investing only in stocks directly through an index fund or mutual fund which may not have enough diversity among its holdings
