• The best ASX ETFs to buy and hold for 10 years

    A smiling businessman in the city looks at his phone and punches the air in celebration of good news.

    Ten years is long enough for the share market to embarrass short-term opinions.

    Themes come and go, but some parts of the global economy look likely to become more important over time.

    With that in mind, here are three ASX exchange traded funds (ETFs) that could be worth buying and holding for the next decade.

    Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

    The Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF could be one of the best ASX ETFs to buy and hold for 10 years.

    This fund is often described as a technology ETF, but that undersells it.

    This ASX ETF is really a bet on the companies building the operating system of modern life. Search, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, digital advertising, streaming, online shopping, software, chips, smartphones, and payments all sit inside the broader ecosystem that the Nasdaq 100 captures.

    The power of this ETF is that investors do not need to know exactly which part of the digital economy wins next.

    Maybe artificial intelligence keeps driving spending. Or maybe cloud platforms become even more important, or software, chips, or digital media take the next turn.

    The Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF gives investors exposure to a collection of businesses with the scale, cash flow, and ambition to keep shaping those changes.

    Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)

    The Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF could be a strong option for investors who think the digital world is becoming more vulnerable as it becomes more valuable.

    Every new app, cloud platform, connected device, payment system, workplace tool, and artificial intelligence service creates another door that needs a lock.

    That is the simple idea behind this ASX ETF. Cybersecurity used to sound like a specialist IT department issue. Today, it is closer to insurance, compliance, infrastructure, and reputation protection all rolled into one.

    Companies can cut back on some technology spending when conditions get tougher, but leaving systems exposed is becoming harder to justify.

    The Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF gives investors exposure to businesses trying to solve that problem across networks, identity, cloud security, endpoint protection, and threat detection.

    The fund can move sharply because cybersecurity shares often trade on high expectations. But the long-term demand outlook is hard to dismiss.

    VanEck Morningstar Wide Moat ETF (ASX: MOAT)

    Finally, the VanEck Morningstar Wide Moat ETF brings something different to the table.

    While the other two funds lean into big growth themes, this ASX ETF is built around business durability.

    The fund looks for US companies believed to have sustainable competitive advantages and attractive valuations.

    That can mean brands customers keep choosing, networks that are hard to copy, cost advantages, intellectual property, scale, or high switching costs.

    The idea is simple enough. Great businesses can stay great for longer than expected when competitors struggle to attack their economics.

    The VanEck Morningstar Wide Moat ETF also adds a valuation filter, which can help stop investors from simply chasing quality at any price.

    A decade is a long time in markets, and plenty will change along the way. But a portfolio of companies with strong competitive positions and valuation discipline could be well placed to keep doing its job.

  • 5 Warren Buffett tips for investing in volatile markets

    a smiling picture of legendary US investment guru Warren Buffett.

    It’s been a rocky road for the Australian sharemarket throughout the first half of 2026. Now, as we navigate the second half of the year, many are turning to the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett, for advice on how to invest like a pro.

    Thanks to his successful investor mindset, Warren Buffett has shared several pieces of investing wisdom over the years. But when it comes to investing specifically when markets are volatile, I think these are his five most valuable lessons.

    Tip 1: Ignore the noise

    Warren Buffett advises investors to treat volatility as an opportunity, rather than a time to panic. He often stresses the importance of leaving your emotions behind. The idea is that investors shouldn’t panic-sell strong businesses when their share price drops. If an investor has bought wisely in a company with strong fundamentals, then the business will remain solid, and a share price drop is background noise which should be ignored.

    Tip 2: Buy when others are fearful

    One of Warren Buffett’s most famous philosophies is to “be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful“. This means that investors should focus on the long term, rather than the latest news cycle. It’s an idea which ties in closely with his tip above about ignoring market noise. He often says that market downturns create fantastic deals for patient investors who have cash on hand. In an ideal world, investors should look to buy high-quality assets at a discount when other investors panic and sell. Then they’d pull back when market overconfidence drives share prices to unrealistic heights.

    Tip 3: Think like a business owner

    Warren Buffett sees share ownership as a way to make a meaningful investment in businesses that look to have long-lasting, favourable economic characteristics and are run by trustworthy managers. He often urges investors to evaluate stocks as if they are buying the entire underlying business. If investors are comfortable holding a company even if the market closes for ten years, temporary volatility shouldn’t be a concern.

    Tip 4: Focus on intrinsic value

    Warren Buffett was famously quoted as saying “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” His point is that, when it comes to the sharemarket, there is a distinct difference between price and value. A low share price doesn’t automatically mean a stock is a good deal, and vice versa. Warren Buffett always looks for high-quality companies with a competitive advantage and buys only when the market price is below their true worth.

    Tip 5: Keep it simple

    Warren Buffett isn’t a fan of complexity; instead, for the majority of investors, he advocates for buying broad, low-cost index funds rather than picking individual stocks. These funds give investors exposure to multiple companies at once. This diversity reduces the risk of significant losses from putting all your eggs into one basket.
