You could own the HACK and/or BUG ETFs as well as CRWD so you get overall sector exposure as well as the leader in the group.

He used to use this. When you're learning about a space, you go to the ETF. Be aware of the valuation. He'd recommend that you can pick leaders within that, rather than buying them all through the ETF. Try FTNT, S, PANW or CYBR.

Gets you all the major cybersecurity companies.

Buy individual cybersecurity stocks or buy this ETF? He now hold a full position in HACK. He also owns Palo Alto--and can't fathom why it isn't part of HACK, because it's the dominant player in cybersecurity.

There's massive focus on this now: collecting personal data and hacking into company databases, which happens more than we think. Cyber security companies have explosive potential growth. Caveat: this is a highly concentrated basket of stocks. Like Amazon, at some point these companies will suffer a sudden 90% drop.

How effective are cyber ETFs? Tech is a great area to be in, despite the Facebook scandal. ETFs are a good way to play this sector. Just keep your weighting at 5%.

Cyber security ETF. It is a niche exposure. Whenever there is news of a data breach, this one receives inflows and volume. This is a good ETF giving you a targeted exposure with good liquidity. If you want niche plays in concentrated sectors that may be volatile, and if you feel there is another data breach coming, then this ETF will probably respond with positive price action to this kind of news. Probably not a long term kind of investment vehicle.
