If you're looking to put $5,000 into the share market this June and want a diversified, low-maintenance approach, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) could be a great place to start.
Whether you're seeking exposure to future-facing technologies, sectoral megatrends, or high-quality global companies, the ASX has a growing list of options.
With that in mind, here are three ASX ETFs that could offer interesting long-term opportunities for investors looking to put their money to work. They are as follows:
As the digital economy expands, so too does the threat of cyberattacks. The Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF gives investors targeted exposure to the global cybersecurity sector—a space expected to experience strong growth in demand as companies and governments ramp up digital defences.
This ASX ETF includes a range of leading cybersecurity stocks such as Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD), and Fortinet (NASDAQ: FTNT). These companies are at the frontlines of combating increasingly complex cyber threats.
For investors who want a slice of the clean energy transition, the Betashares Global Uranium ETF could be a great way to play the resurgence of nuclear power. This ASX ETF invests in global uranium miners and producers that are well positioned to benefit from a growing push toward decarbonisation and energy security.
The uranium market has seen a resurgence in interest as governments worldwide look for stable, low-emission energy alternatives Particularly given the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), which is causing a significant increase in power demands from data centres. This has led to a number of tech giants committing to nuclear power for their AI ambitions, which bodes well for uranium demand and pricing in the coming years. Among its holdings are the locally listed Paladin Energy Ltd (ASX: PDN) and Boss Energy Ltd (ASX: BOE)
Finally, if consistency, profitability, and resilience are what you're after, the Betashares Global Quality Leaders ETF could be worth a look. This ASX ETF tracks a portfolio of high-quality global companies that have demonstrated persistent earnings strength, strong balance sheets, and sustainable competitive advantages.
By focusing on companies that rank highly on quality metrics, this fund offers exposure to businesses that tend to hold up well through economic cycles. This includes names like Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ), and Visa (NYSE: V). It was recently named as one to consider buying by the team at Betashares.
