Investors are increasingly leaning toward these options to weather economic uncertainty.1

Canadian ETFs, such as BMO Aggregate Bond Index ETF (ZAG) and Horizons S&P 500 Index ETF (HXS), remain popular for their cost efficiency and tax advantages. These funds provide diverse exposure to domestic and international markets, catering to both conservative and growth-oriented investors.2
