Despite a strong start, real-time factors like earnings, policy shifts, or global events can still sway the outcome. History provides insight but does not guarantee. What History Reveals.

If I were to have a dream etf, it would have to track the trump tweets and manage the risk with the news ! Nothing beats now with trump everyday changing tariffs and policy changes!

If I could design a “dream ETF,” it would combine long-term stability, innovation, and global impact. Let’s call it the FUTR ETF (Futureproof Universal Tech & Resilience) 1. Clean Energy & Sustainability – Solar, wind, battery storage, circular economy. 2. AI & Automation – Companies leading in AI models, robotics, and industrial automation. 3. Cybersecurity & Data Infrastructure – Data centers, quantum-safe encryption, edge computing.
I would want it to track firstly the world index as the main indicator but also have a portion tracking new and upcoming trends for the added boost though it comes with some risk
my dream etf will be 20% in us tech, 15% in SP500, 15% in Nasdaq , 20% in sg blue chip stocks, 20% in gold, 10% in Bitcoin.. which i can Dca monthly without me distributing my funds and buying them separately paying for additional transaction fees.
I imagine a fund AI driven that never sleeps, referenced as ITTT- International Trend Tracker Titan, tracks trends in value high growth with minimum 15-20 % returns. If it misses the trend it must pay higher dividend on monthly basis. It must outperform Tomasek and other eurozone and US dividend and growth funds.
My dream ETF.. KIASU ETF comprising of 50% sg banks n reits, 20% hk div stocks, 20% US blue chips n mag 7, 10% trending growth stocks like AI, crypto n quantum computing.
If I had the opportunity to design my ideal ETF, it would focus on a curated portfolio of companies at the forefront of transformative innovation in sustainability, artificial intelligence, and frontier technologies. The fund would target leaders in sectors such as renewable energy, cutting-edge AI applications, robotics, quantum computing, and sustainable agriculture. To stay aligned with the fast pace of technological advancement, the ETF would be rebalanced on a quarterly basis. It would include a mix of established disruptors and high-potential early-stage firms, aiming to provide diversified exposure to industries poised to shape the future economy and tackle global challenges. Possible clever and impactful names for this ETF might include: FutureFront Innovations ETF NextWave Tech &
BitBonds Balanced ETF (BBB); implies investment-grade (“BBB” rated) and the digital/analog duality of “Bit” and “Bonds”.

This ETF is ideal for investors seeking a hybrid allocation between the future of finance (crypto) and time-tested stability (government and high-quality bonds). Tracked Assets: 1. Cryptocurrencies (25%) BTC - 10% ETH - 10% Basket of altcoins (e.g. SOL, AVAX, LINK, ADA) - 5% 2.

Here is my suggestion Create a hybrid ETF with 60–70% Asian exposure (tech, renewables) and 30–40% international diversification (healthcare, stable indices). Core Holdings: - Asia: TSMC (semiconductors), Tencent/Alibaba (tech), Samsung (hardware), BYD (EVs), Infosys (IT). - International: Apple/Microsoft (tech stability), Johnson & Johnson (healthcare), S&P 500 ETF (broad market). Why Hybrid? - Asia offers high growth (tech innovation, rising middle class), but global diversification mitigates risks like China’s regulatory shifts or currency volatility. - Keep costs low (expense ratio <0.50%) using ETFs like VXUS for international exposure. Avoid Asia-only ETFs to reduce reliance on regional volatility.
