3 ASX ETFs to invest $3,000 into in April and May

If you are lucky enough to have $3,000 to invest in the share market, then it could be worth considering ASX exchange traded funds (ETFs).

ETFs allow investors to spread their capital across different regions, sectors, and investment styles in a simple and efficient way.

But which ones could be top picks for investors in April and May? Let’s take a look at three ASX ETFs that were recently recommended by the team at BetaShares:

BetaShares Global Cash Flow Kings ETF (ASX: CFLO)

The first ASX ETF to consider is the BetaShares Global Cash Flow Kings ETF.

This fund focuses on companies generating strong and consistent free cash flow. That emphasis can highlight businesses with proven models and the ability to reinvest, pay dividends, or reduce debt.

Its holdings include ASML Holding (NASDAQ: ASML), Visa (NYSE: V), and Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR).

Palantir is a notable inclusion. The company specialises in data analytics and artificial intelligence platforms used by governments and enterprises. Its software is designed to handle complex datasets and support decision-making at scale. As AI adoption increases, demand for these types of tools is expected to grow.

BetaShares MSCI Emerging Markets Complex ETF (ASX: BEMG)

Another ASX ETF to consider is the BetaShares MSCI Emerging Markets Complex ETF.

This fund provides broad exposure to emerging markets, which are being shaped by powerful long-term trends such as a rising middle class, urbanisation, and accelerating digital transformation.

The BetaShares MSCI Emerging Markets Complex ETF gives investors access to more than 1,000 companies across over 20 countries, including regions in Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, and Africa. These are markets that can be difficult and costly to access directly.

Its holdings include Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE: TSM), Alibaba Group (NYSE: BABA) and SK Hynix.

Alibaba is one of the most prominent technology platforms in emerging markets. The company operates across ecommerce, logistics, and cloud computing, and continues to invest in artificial intelligence through initiatives such as its Qwen large language models and AI Cloud services.

BetaShares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF (ASX: ATEC)

A third ASX ETF to consider is BetaShares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF.

It provides exposure to Australia’s leading technology companies, many of which are expanding globally.

Its holdings include Pro Medicus Ltd (ASX: PME), WiseTech Global Ltd (ASX: WTC), and Xero Ltd (ASX: XRO).

Pro Medicus is a standout name in the portfolio. The company develops imaging software used by hospitals and healthcare providers worldwide. Its solutions are known for high performance and scalability, and the business has built a strong reputation in a specialised but growing market.
