From Kiplinger:
We mixed and matched our 20 favorite exchange-traded funds to create five model portfolios to suit most investors’ needs.
Choosing a good exchange-traded fund is a little like shopping for blue paint at a home-improvement store: The choices are dizzying. Search for an ETF with “S&P 500” in its name, for example, and you’ll find 65 funds. But only three track Standard & Poor’s famous large-company stock index in the traditional way. That is, they hold shares in all 500 firms in proportion to their market capitalization.
