Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) - Recommended reading?

VonLuck · 2018-02-21 22:31:27

I am considering investing in ETFs, but I'm kind of lost in the sea of information on Google. Can anyone recommend either a comprehensive website or preferably an in-depth book on ETFs? I don't want to dive in head first without knowing what I'm getting myself into. Thanks.

"A Random Walk Down Wallstreet" and "The Little Book of Common Sense Investing" are very good IMO.

Just be aware, most books and sites are US-centric, and have little knowledge of Ireland's complex tax system in relation to ETFs. Hence, and strategy/advice should be taken with caution.
