While the four ETFs below are likely the best group of four you will find for long-term investing and diversification, this might not be the ideal time to jump in with two feet. That said since nobody truly knows how long the current bull run will last, you can jump in with one foot. This means only using a small percentage of your available capital to invest, thereby reducing risk without sacrificing upside potential. If the market continues to appreciate, then you still have a small win. If the market takes a hit, you have more capital available to buy at lower prices. It’s a win win as long as you’re patient. Now let’s get to those four high quality ETFs.
Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) tracks the performance of the CRSP Total Market Index. Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG). Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF (VWO) tracks the FTSE Emerging Markets Index. Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (BND) offers exposure to U.S. investment-grade bonds. The ETFs listed above offer low costs, high liquidity, diversification and good long-term potential. That said, this might not be the best entry point. You may see much cheaper prices at some point over the next one to two years.
