I've also been looking at ROBO....a completely different collection of companies focused on robotics and automation. They actual pay an annual dividend, but at a diminimus value...not a factor in my investment decision. I'm now debating between splitting my planned cash dump across three sets of tech companies, or letting it all ride on the riskiest of the three...ARKQ (but with the highest return over the past 12 months)
Safe money wins the long game, but I'm kinda thinking I've played it way too safe for way too long. I've been so risk averse that I do often wonder if I missed out on some gains. On the other hand, its quite possible that I would have lost every time I gambled, and its only because of conservative investments that I got to this position in the first place.
Curious...in terms of index funds...which indices do you guys like to track....DJIA, NASDAQ, NYSE, S&P?
More importantly, over 5-10 years, which index is likely to see the most growth?
While I've been cautious with NASDAQ since the sell-off in the late 90's and earlier 2000's, I recognize that tech is going to be a huge part of the next decade. At the same time, I think many traditional industrials will start to decline and give way to emerging tech and disruptive models.
Thoughts?
