What is Index Funds and ETFs

[flower]

Index funds and ETFs seem like a great way to achieve diversification with minimal effort. Any recommendations on specific funds or strategies to consider?"

I've been hearing a lot about the benefits of passive investing with index funds. For those who've been doing it for a while, how has your experience been?"

I also want to consider allocating a portion of my portfolio to international index funds for added diversification.

ETFs or Exchange Traded Funds are investment pools. When you buy ETFs, your money will be used by fund manager to invest in various markets. It is just like mutual funds but you can trade ETFs but not mutual funds
