Think of community data as a compass: you can choose any stock you want, but our community keeps pointing in the same general direction - simple, diversified, and cheap ETFs. Let's take a look at the 10 most popular ETFs on Pearler.

 The list is all ETFs, but you should know this is the top 10 of EVERYTHING.

That's right: the 10 most invested assets on Pearler are all well established ETFs.

While some iPhone (and Android) traders might scoff at this, we're proud that our community is backing the simple options.

Community data won't replace all research. Even so, its an unfiltered view of how like-minded people are building their wealth. By reviewing it, you can compare your decisions against a community, instead of a friend or stranger on Reddit.

As you'll see below, some of these ETFs (like VAS and A200) have a lot of overlap. We've broken down the top holdings and other key facts, so you can see for yourself.

Would you like to read through this breakdown at your own pace? You can check it out at any time on Instagram.

For whatever reason, people tend to focus on share price ups and downs, but it's rarely the whole story.

Dividends can form a large or small part of the picture for an ETF or stock. It’s also important to consider how they impact your reinvestment strategy.

We want to help make your research easier, so we've listed our top assets split by capital growth and dividends.

Capital growth vs dividend income

Want to nerd out over these figures later? You can check them at any time in this IG post.

What do we mean by "reinvestment strategy"? Well, there are three main options:

🔂 Set up a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) through a share registry

Take advantage of Pearler's DRP using Autoinvest

💰 Take the cash and keep your options open

Keen to do your own digging through our community data? You can see assets ranked by most invested at Invest > Shares. You can also filter to compare specific assets, such as ESGs, thematics, LICs, or individual stocks.

For any questions that the data can't answer, head on over to the Pearler Exchange. Our community of investors and advisers love sharing their ideas and experiences there.

"Where can I buy from this list?"

Happy investing (and learning),

Hayden
