A Warning About Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs).“Are you being sold ‘diversification’… or quietly signing away your upside? Today, we’re talking about the hidden risks inside many exchange traded funds, ETFs.For the true long‑term investor, owning a simple index ETF like SPY and letting it compound can work just fine. But if you stop there, you may never capture those big winners that actually drive market performance.In this channel, we still believe in being thoughtful stock pickers—doing basic research and always hunting for ‘best in class’ companies, not just whatever happens to be bundled into the latest ETF. Today, there are more ETFs than stocks, many holding the same names over and over, so piling into multiple funds can leave you with muted returns and concentrated single‑stock risk.We’ll also look at why leveraged ETFs can quietly multiply beta and downside, and why loving a sector doesn’t mean you should buy the whole ETF buffet. If you truly believe in a theme, it may be wiser to own the standout business rather than a watered‑down basket.So if you’re serious about long‑term wealth and want to think more like Charlie Munger—who warned that “Diversification is the enemy of performance” —hit subscribe, and let’s get started with ‘A Warning About Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs).’”(A special thank you to Google Gemini for producing a show summary from my written outline!)
