The 20 Best AI ETFs To Buy Today

AI ETFs are the best way to gain exposure to the artificial intelligence megatrend while avoiding the pitfalls of investing in individual AI stocks. Stocks in this sector can swing significantly and are vulnerable to the broader market turning bearish. However, if you pile into an ETF, you’re buying a ready-made basket of companies that spans the entire AI value chain.

In one trade, you get diversification, professional rebalancing, and a built-in shock absorber for the volatility that comes with breakthrough technologies. Most AI ETFs also give you exposure to future AI winners by rotating into them as the market rebalances.

MyInvestingNews has curated this slideshow with 20 AI ETFs that have delivered solid gains this year.
