Richard OrrellGlobal X Artificial Intelligence & Tech Index ETF AIGO.TOBUYApr 02, 2026
Looking for an ETF with a few AI-related stocks to spread the risk.
In general, ETFs hold a basket of 60-80 stocks. This is one he's looked at. Holds picks & shovels, but also software and data centres and energy. Exposure beyond just the US, which makes up 65% of holdings.
Trades in both US and Canada, and he'd recommend using the Canadian version. Relatively new to Canada, around longer in the US.
AIGO has identical securities to AIQ, but trades in Canada. There are a few others that play the AI space in Canada: CHPS, CIAI, and MTRX. Each gives different exposure. He likes them all. See which one makes sense for you.
