5 excellent ASX ETFs to supercharge your portfolio

If you want to accelerate your long-term wealth creation without spending your weekends analysing individual stocks, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) could be the answer.

The right mix of ASX ETFs can give you instant diversification, exposure to global megatrends, and access to some of the world's best businesses in a single trade.

With that in mind, here are five excellent ASX ETFs that could help supercharge a portfolio over the years ahead.

BetaShares Nasdaq 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

The hugely popular BetaShares Nasdaq 100 ETF offers exposure to the world's most influential technology and innovation leaders. Its holdings include Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ: MSFT), and Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ: NVDA), alongside growing non-tech names like Costco Wholesale Corp (NASDAQ: COST) and Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX). Given the quality on offer among its holdings, it appears well-positioned to deliver strong returns over the next decade.

iShares S&P 500 ETF (ASX: IVV)

For broad-based US exposure, the iShares S&P 500 ETF is hard to beat. It tracks America's 500 largest stocks, giving investors ownership in businesses such as Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ), Bank of America (NYSE: BAC), and Visa (NYSE: V). The S&P 500 index has a long track record of compounding wealth, and this ASX ETF provides a simple, low-cost way to tap into that engine of returns.

Betashares Australian Quality ETF (ASX: AQLT)

A third ASX ETF that could be a top pick for investors is the Betashares Australian Quality ETF. It takes a selective approach to the local share market. Instead of tracking the index, it focuses on high-quality Australian shares with strong balance sheets and consistent profitability. Key holdings include BHP Group Ltd (ASX: BHP), Wesfarmers Ltd (ASX: WES), and Macquarie Group Ltd (ASX: MQG), making it a compelling option for investors seeking a quality tilt at home. It was recently recommended to investors by the team at Betashares.

BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)

Cybersecurity is one of the fastest-growing areas of global technology, and the BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF provides investors with targeted exposure to this critical theme. This ASX ETF holds specialists such as Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), CrowdStrike Holdings (NASDAQ: CRWD), and Fortinet (NASDAQ: FTNT). As cyber threats continue to rise, demand for these services looks structural rather than cyclical.

BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)

Finally, the BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF could be a great pick for investors. It offers access to Asia's tech heavyweights, including Tencent Holdings (SEHK: 700), Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE: TSM), and Alibaba Group (NYSE: BABA). With rising digital adoption and long-term economic growth across Asia, this ASX ETF could be a great buy and hold pick for Aussie investors.
