The SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is regarded as a strong investment option, offering low-cost exposure to a broad array of U.S. large-cap equities. Experts emphasize its popularity among both individual and institutional investors, noting that it provides substantial diversification and liquidity, which are critical for long-term investors. However, there are concerns about its heavy concentration in the technology sector, with 8 or 9 of the top 10 holdings being tech-centric. This concentration raises questions about the overall risk of the ETF, as the tech sector comprises a significant portion of the S&P 500. Some experts suggest that while the index has been a reliable hold for years, it is essential to monitor the valuation of tech stocks, as elevated price-to-earnings ratios could point toward overvaluation. Overall, the consensus leans towards holding, with expectations of solid performance over the next 5-10 years.

HOLD

Add, or just hold?

Very popular, though may have been surpassed by Vanguard in terms of market cap. Low cost. Likes these ETFs. Very much a hold, enjoy the ride. In 5-10 years, you'll be in good shape.

DON'T BUY

Major concern about this one is that it's really a technology ETF, given that 8 or 9 of the top 10 names are tech names. 40% of the S&P 500 is tech or tech-oriented, and we've never before seen this concentration. That's quite a bit of risk with so much exposure to one sector. Index is not as safe as it was 10 years ago.

Technology in this new world is exciting, but it's not cheap. Though earnings growth is very strong, how far will we let PE's go before we say they're too expensive?

TOP PICK

The SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is a well-established exchange-traded fund that seeks to provide investment results that, before expenses, generally correspond to the price and yield performance of the S&P 500 Index. The ETF holds a wide array of stocks, providing broad exposure to the U.S. large-cap equity market. Established by State Street Global Advisors, SPY is a popular investment vehicle among individual and institutional investors due to its diversification, liquidity, and historical performance. Social media mentions are up 4% in the past 24h.

BUY

SPY is the oldest and the biggest. Buy more, hold forever. Starting to be overtaken by VOO, perhaps because of the slight difference in MER cost. Worthwhile contacting the ETF company itself for a tax opinion on which account is best to hold it in.

BUY

He did a put spread on May 2, the 500-520 end of July put spread. He wasn't concerned about NVDA or tech, but to the market's reaction broadly to Nividia's earnings. Rally broadening in the S&P had not happened. You're limiting your downside with a spread. He bought back the 500 put, which leads him long only the 599 outs.

BUY

He just bought May 500 puts. In the two days since the Fed meeting, the USD has strengthened against many currencies (Euro, Yen, UK pound, Chinese yuan). Ripples in the currency market will lead to a slight pullback in the S&P.

BUY

SPY vs. QQQ

SPY is more diversified than QQQ, which is mainly technology, biotech, and some consumer names. SPY is 26% technology, 8% communications. Tech sector has gotten ahead of itself again, and the valuations are not that attractive.

BUY

It's been beaten down, but healthcare will do well.

COMMENT

put buying SPY put buys: 30,000 of the July 377 puts, and 100,000 of the June 345 puts, and 18,000 of the July 22 expiring 385 puts. This action may not be over just yet, because there's still a lot of buying.

DON'T BUY

She is handpicking stocks in this bear market. Choose individual stocks. It's hard work--read the reports and listen to the calls, but it pays off. Don't buy the SPY, but would own the stocks in that ETF.

DON'T BUY

Not his favourite place to be. The Canadian market is better on a seasonal basis. Be careful of timing and wait for corrections.

BUY

Today's session (a knee jerk bounce after Biden announced oil sanctions against Russia) signalled to her that if we get even a whiff of good news, that we'll see a giant rally. We're hungry for any kind of good news (out of Russia/Ukraine). She bought some SPY calls at the day's end.... If peace were announced tomorrow, she could see crude oil sliding by at least $25/barrel.

TOP PICK

Largest ETF in the world tracking the S&P 500 index. Social media mentions are up 278% for the past 24h suggesting an optimistic popular outlook for the S&P 500 in 2022.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Likes the US, has a lot of quality. At this stage, slightly overbought at 65 RSI. Wait for some more volatility. Long-term, it's a great way to access the 500 largest cap names in the US.

COMMENT

Having a tilt towards tech has worked well. While we get into low inflation, these will do well. There are signs that underlying the surface of index returns, the market may not be as healthy as it might appear. A narrow group of stocks are driving the returns.
