Where to invest $2,500 in ASX ETFs this month

If you've got $2,500 to invest this month, the ASX offers plenty of simple, diversified exchange traded fund (ETF) options that can help you build long-term wealth without the stress of picking individual stocks.

Whether you want global exposure, a defensive edge, or a single fund that does it all, there are some great opportunities available.

Here are three ASX ETFs that could be smart additions to your portfolio right now:

BetaShares Global Cash Flow Kings ETF (ASX: CFLO)

For investors who like the idea of owning high-quality global stocks with strong free-cash-flow generation, the BetaShares Global Cash Flow Kings ETF could be a top option.

This ASX ETF targets high-quality businesses with strong balance sheets and durable cashflows. These are the kind of stocks that can compound steadily over long periods.

Among its major holdings are Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Visa (NYSE: V), and Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR).

The latter was once seen as a niche analytics provider. But today, Palantir is a major player in AI-driven data intelligence. Its Foundry and Gotham platforms are used by governments and enterprise clients worldwide, and its new AI offerings have been gaining rapid commercial traction. With sticky customers and increasing adoption, Palantir exemplifies the type of fast-growing cash-flow machine the fund is designed to capture. Betashares recently tipped this fund as one to buy.

BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)

Cybercrime continues to rise, and businesses around the world are pouring billions into securing their networks. That could make the BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF one of the most compelling thematic ETFs on the ASX right now.

This ASX ETF invests in some of the world's leading cybersecurity specialists, including Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD), and Cisco Systems (NASDAQ: CSCO).

CrowdStrike is the company behind the AI-driven Falcon platform. It has become the gold standard for endpoint protection, attracting high-profile enterprise clients and generating rapidly growing recurring revenue. As cyber threats become more sophisticated, demand for advanced security solutions is only going to increase.

BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF (ASX: DHHF)

If you're looking for a complete, growth-focused portfolio in a single ETF, the BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF could be one of the best solutions available.

This ASX ETF invests across Australian equities, US equities, developed international markets, and emerging markets through a mix of low-cost index funds, giving investors exposure to thousands of stocks globally in one simple trade.

Its largest underlying exposures include names like Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), and Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA).

The benefit of the BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF is its simplicity. You can buy it, contribute small amounts over time, reinvest your distributions, and let the global market do the heavy lifting.

It was also recently tipped as one to consider buying by Betashares.
