VANGUARD FUNDS PLC S&P 500 UCITS ETF USD(GBP) (VUSA)
This ETF gives exposure to the US market particular for European/ UK investors. It tracks the S&P 500 index (the 500 top US listed companies). A full summary available here.
The quarterly yield currently 1.61%, Vanguard also take an annual %-based management fee which is relatively low imo. Annual %-based fees are good for those who are a buying regularly - like small amounts from wages.
If like me you want to continue building your exposure here, I recommend buying between the daily 200ma and 500ma (red and orange) during bearish periods, during bullish moves you won't have this opportunity so you can wait for buys between the daily 20ma and the 100ma (blue and green). The 50ma is a good place to average in.
My strategy is small buys from disposable income - that means don't bet what you're not willing to "lose".
In the past ETFs like this have been low risk, low return investments. There has been a lot of FUD over the last couple of years surrounding stocks and the market has been very volatile due to political interventions (Trump).
Right now, I think the market is preparing for a decisive move, possibly bullish imo, but if not the fund will likely retest (at least close to) the 500ma, probably over a 12 month period.
