The Fidelity product Fidelity have mentioned to me is Fidelity Blue Chip Growth ETF (FBCG).
Put it all in FBCG and let it ride for a bit. Protect that chunk and wait for the right opportunities.
I wouldn't choose a stock. Invest in an ETF instead. I recommend FBGRX or FBCG to all my younger family and friends. I have now owned it for 10 years. In those 10 years it's up almost 600%. A $10,000 investment is now valued at almost $60K. FBGRX and FBCG are basically the same. FBGRX is a mutual fund while FBCG is an ETF. An investor has to tolerate the volatility. Another suggestion is FSELX a mutual fund. It's a tech ETF. Over the last 10 years it has an annualized return of almost 30%. A $10k investment 10 years ago would be worth almost $124k. It has an annualized rate of almost 30% the last 10 years. Again, it's highly volatile. An ETF option if SMH or SOXX. Both tech funds. SMH has done slightly better the last 10 years. I own significant amounts in all of the funds I mentioned.
nvda, qqq, voo, FBCG (an active managed etf. higher return), aapl
I have 3 that have performed well and under radar a little NANC (mimic nancy polezy’s potfolio’ FBCG ( blue chip high growth) lovely performance last year And SLV
A few interesting ones right now: * **ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK)** – High risk, but focused on disruptive innovation. * **JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPI)** – More defensive, with consistent income through dividends and options. * **Fidelity Blue Chip Growth ETF (FBCG)** – Exposure to large-cap U.S. growth stocks. * **T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research ETF (TSPA)** – A more classic active strategy with reasonable costs. Just keep in mind: Active ETFs **don’t guarantee outperformance** and fees are typically higher than passive ones. or paying off debt.
I made contributions ( 7K USD) to my IRA at Fidelity. I am in my late 50s and a novice in investing; read an article on ETFs. Looking for advise on investing in ETFs. They were mentioning VOO ( Vanguard S&P 500 ETF) or FBCG (Fidelity Blue Chip Growth ETF) as few EFTs that will yield long term value. Please advise as to where to invest ( Pros and Cons of ETFs). If ETF is not the way to go , would index funds are viable option?
"Diversify more" says someone who owns SPY and wants to add VOO and VOOG. And who owns QQQ and VUG and FBCG and SCHG, all collections of large cap growth stock. You own the same things over and over with this setup. Do you know what these groups of letters actually hold? I really don't think so. I would take some time to explore this further. You have a ton of redundancy in this list, which is not a problem per se, but it's also not achieving anything for you - and it's unnecessarily complicated.
Your choices are fine, although SPLG (S&P 500) is already \~85% of VTI, so it's redundant to have both. Berkshire is an odd choice but it doesn't distribute dividends, which keeps it from adding to annual tax drag. I wouldn't personally add to that holding. I have my kids' investments mostly in S&P 500 plus a bit of large cap growth, FBCG.
I can't answer your question but take a look at FBCG. Its 5 largest holdings are nvda, apple, MSFT, goog and meta. But it's actively reallocated every so often to catch the best blue chip growth stocks. It's a newish ETF but YTD is over 20% with over 40% in the last 365 days.
FBCG has a near 0% dividend yield. It is an actively managed semi-transparent growth ETF. https://digital.fidelity.com/prgw/digital/research/quote/dashboard/distributions-expenses?symbol=FBCG https://etfdb.com/etf/FBCG/#etf-ticker-profile
These downvotes are deserved - this is bad advice. While VOO is volatile, it's diverse and very cheap expenses-wise to invest in.

Volatility matters little over the long term. You need better returns than just blue chip.
FNGS, SMH, IXN, IBLC for tech space as it's down the most And index-based funds like XLG, QQQ or even SCHG/FBCG
Investment timing for growth funds such as FXAIX, FBCG: Say if someone had rollover 401K funds in cash, is this current pullback a good time to move a large portion from cash to a growth fund?
OP deff fire financial advisor. You don’t need him to manage this. You don’t need to sell anything. Although maybe smart to minimize your individual stocks and put in VOO. As well as adding more to the tech sector and growth. Seems like your FA is a bit too safe. Given it was an inheritance, maybe he was being cautious of your mother’s age. The dividends he isn’t reinvesting for you (dumbest thing ever) Not your fault. His. He is literally taking his pay from your dividends that aren’t being reinvested How long has he been a FA for your mother before she passed? I hope not too long. That’s a lot of dividends that could have been reinvested. That has costed your portfolio to not grow by a significant level! Imagine what 20-30 years of reinvesting divis wouldn’t netted you! Now my holdings are (individual brokerage account) 276 Apple 1000 FBCG 41 VOO 58 Amazon 72 Nvidia 10 Microsoft 80 Draftkings 3k in a 401k from a job from years ago. Got 10k I want to dump in market. I’m thinking a value fund or dividend fund. Waiting for red days then I add some every red day.
VOO, QQQ, FBCG, VGT, SCHD, and a tiny bit of BND. Same as I’ve done every single week the last 3+ years. The same thing I’ll be doing 10 years from now.
Why Spy and VOO? Maybe add some Apple. Check out this fund FBCG. Banger.
FBCG is the (almost) equal ETF - its got a small underperformance of about 50bps/year.
SMH, MGK, and FBCG are what I’m in. All about that aggressive growth.
FBCG- My favorite fund. Must Add! Apple Microsoft Amazon Cava- one of my favorites as well! VOO
Sorry, not busting your balls but didn’t want to mansplain if your were being facetious. But yes theres an assload of etfs that isolate growth/tech stocks. Largest is QQQ which with SPY for the Nasdaq 100. XLK is the entire tech sector, but note that Meta,Google and Netflix are found the Commincations sector etf XLC. Fidelity Chip Growth, a classic growth mutual fund, is also offered as an ETF, FBCG. If you want get dirty their is also SMH for pure semiconductor .
Perhaps active blue chip growth funds like TCHP or FBCG. I think you’ll have trouble finding a growth fund that doesn’t have a significant allocation toward technology.
How long can you hold? I would switch it to FBCG or FGRO if you really want to target growth and can hold through the volatility.
Safe TRTY or a bond fund. Speculative FBCG.
Is there a way to invest in this fund through for example TD ameritrade? All I see is fidelity blue chip Growth $FBCG ?
FBCG, YYY, and VOO are my big holders
I know it spreads things out, people have used them to build wealth for a while now, and I don’t have to do extensive research into every stock. I might not get rich over night but I feel better with the slow and steady with the occasional bet here and there. I’m in SCHD a growth dividend fund, SPLG a newer S&P 500 tracker, FLRG a managed fidelity multi factor, Schawbs newest international etf. FLRG is my main holding but I’m building my holdings in SPLG for it to be the main money maker. After I hit 50 shares in the US and 30 share in the international I plan to buy into one of the new fidelity managed etfs maybe FBCG or FSMO. Individual stock I’m in Duke Energy (DUK). They’re the main power provider for my state, they pay a decent dividend. I try to buy a share every couple of months or so. My fuck around stocks are 4 CTRX soon to be 10 shares, 10 shares of ADAP, 5 share of CSSP (chicken soup for the soul). Finally 1 share of BBW and 1 share of BBC (it’s an etf but what ever). Though I have thought about buying 1 more BBW because it make me giggle.
Rolled my IRA over in March from my previous company. Started a roth at the same time. AAPl - 23.92% AMZN - 18.33% FNILX - 9.36% FBGRX - 13.97% VTI - 8.05% NVDA - 7.61% DIA - 6.87% SQ - 5.62% SOFI, FBCG, FSMAX less than 1.5% combined. Roth: PSCE - 79.37% FENY - 13.83% BARK - 6.52% ​ 39 YO male, own my home. Not much debt beyond that.
I'll have to re-evaluate my FNILX (a zero-cost large-cap fund) position vs. FBCG. In one year there is about 17% difference in return favoring FBCG, even though it's not been around very long. The higher expense ratio may be worth it given the increase in performance, but it's taken less than a year to outperform. FBCG is more volatile, so hold onto your chair and enjoy the ride.
>I don’t know of any other ETFs that are actively managed like ARK FBCG: https://screener.fidelity.com/ftgw/etf/goto/snapshot/snapshot.jhtml?symbols=FBCG Then there's this list: https://www.thebalance.com/actively-managed-bond-etfs-the-complete-updated-list-416942 Here's a page explaining about actively managed ETFs: https://www.fidelity.com/learning-center/investment-products/etf/types-of-etfs-actively-managed
You can get the etf that is pretty much a mirror FBCG.
