Do I get more Roi if I put all my money in one ETF or put it in multiple ETFS?

I don’t have a lot of money, less than 1k so I suppose for me it’s better to invest in 1 only?

How old?

Just one really, but if you're hella young, stick them into concentrated funds i.e. vanguard IT

Otherwise just S&P 500 or All world.

Since NVIDIA is in most of ETFs I thought why not invest in NVIDIA?
Because you might not want to buy the peak. I work in machine learning; experts are genuinely split as to whether we're in a bubble currently.

Exposure is still spread widely in an ETF, even though Nvidia is composing nearly 20% allocation of major ETFs.

Change it to VGT bud.

Why not NVIDIA with sub 1k money ETFs won’t really help?
What’s the name of the tool you are using?

Trading 212 - At the time I started, they had the best fee structure for my needs, but I think there are better offers now.

Because you're 17. Long-term investing is a habit as much as anything else. That 1k isn't gonna do much for you even if you hit 10x in the next year.

Build a good habit. Shit, I wasn't thinking about investing when I was 17, so you're already ahead of the game. But seriously, focus on the habit, not the pick.

But couldn’t I get more money long term if I just buy NVIDIA ?

Swings and ladders.

What if there's no liquidity when you need to pull out, or you can't pull out at the price you want, even if you're up over the long term.

Over 1 year the past years it performs better than any ETF

I don't know what to tell you, brother. It's about diversification, what else can I say?

Of course, you have more opportunity for upside, but also far more risk.

I'll be clear, I'm not a balance sheet whisperer.

I've built a habit of making sure that every month, money goes outta my account and into my stocks & shares ISA, and when that fills up, it goes into other trading accounts, and into pretty standard ETFs - VGT, VOO, iShares Physical Gold. Then I make sure I get my BTC and ETH in.
When I approach retirement, I'll see about moving it all into a SIPP if possible, and transferring to less volatile classes.

That's it.

I don't look to make money in the market, just provide a good retirement/beat inflation. I make my money from work and property rental, that's it.
