Selected ETFs To Watch In 2025
Following on last week's top 10 list, this week's blog focuses on ETFs related to the stocks in the list. For this week, we then screened for ETFs that contained each stock that were also rated 5 (Strong Buy), focusing on the ETF that held the stock in the greatest percentage, then traveling down the lists of ETFs that held it until we found one rated 5. This resulted in a list of Strong Buy 5 rated ETFs that held at least one Strong Buy 5 rated stock as a major holding.
