Advantages of American stock index funds:
1, diversified investments.
ETF has developed rapidly in the North American stock market, with nearly 1,000 kinds of products. Some track the market index, some track the industry index, some track other countries' stock markets ... and some track different kinds of ETFs such as bond price, gold price, oil price, foreign exchange price and agricultural product price, which is really dazzling.
Ordinary investors can invest in commodities, precious metals, currencies, etc. In the U.S. stock market, it's like buying ordinary stocks through Futu Securities.
2. The performance is relatively stable.
ETF is more suitable for medium and long-term investors, because they value the "general trend" most, have no energy to study the performance of each company, and don't want to see their portfolio ups and downs due to unexpected events (this phenomenon often occurs when holding individual stocks). This kind of investors can choose several ETFs with good liquidity, buy them after the stock market bottoms out and sell them after the general trend reverses. There are few transactions every year, and the risk is relatively low, so you can have a good sleep.
3. Leveraged ETFs can be long or short many times.
If you don't think it's enough to go long or flip, you can double or triple the long or short ETFs of these indexes. Of course, the risk will increase after adding leverage. This provides multiple leverage for investors who cannot use margin for leveraged trading.
