Below is a look at ETFs that currently offer attractive buying opportunities.
The ETFs included in this list are rated as buy candidates for two reasons. First, each of these funds is deemed to be in an uptrend based on the fact that its 50-day moving average is above its 200-day moving average, which are popular indicators for gauging long-term and medium-term trends, respectively.
Second, each of these ETFs is also trading below its five-day moving average, thereby offering a near-term ‘buy on the dip’ opportunity, given the longer-term uptrend at hand. Note that this prospects list also features a liquidity screen by excluding ETFs with average trading volumes below the one million shares mark. As always, investors of all experience levels are advised to use stop-loss orders and practice disciplined profit-taking techniques.

- 125 ETFs made it to the buy on the dip prospects list. The US market ended higher, driven by cooler-than-expected inflation report, strong corporate earnings, optimism regarding a potential end to a US government shutdown, and seasonal trends. A major driver was the rally in the technology sector.
- GraniteShares 2x Long BABA Daily ETF (BABX ) topped the Buy on the Dip list amid growing concerns over an AI bubble, sparked by warnings from financial institutions. This drove down Chinese tech stocks such as Alibaba, with the company repositioning itself from China’s top e-commerce platform into a technology-focused business prioritizing cloud, AI, and global commerce. KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB ) also made it to the list. Check out our Chinese Equity ETFs’ list here
- Several silver-focused ETFs like Global X Silver Miners ETF (SIL ) and Amplify Junior Silver Miners ETF (SILJ ) featured on the list. Silver prices are falling due to a combination of factors, like investors booking profits after a strong rally, a strengthening U.S. dollar, and easing geopolitical tensions. Additionally, renewed optimism around potential trade deals between the U.S. and China reduces the demand for silver as a safe-haven asset.
- Global X Uranium ETF (URA ) also made it to the list. Uranium prices have fallen recently due to increased supply from producers like Kazatomprom and government-backed initiatives, which outweighed demand-driven rallies.
- Several Bitcoin funds such as Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust ETF (BTC ), Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB ), iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT ), and more, ranked among the buy on the dip list as Bitcoin prices fell in the last month. A record-long government shutdown and uncertainty surrounding Federal Reserve monetary policy weighed on prices.
- Many bond funds like iShares Intermediate-Term Corporate Bond ETF (IGIB ), Vanguard Intermediate-Term Bond Fund (BIV ), iShares 3-7 Year Treasury Bond ETF (IEI ), and more were buy on the dip contenders. Investor hopes for an end to the prolonged US government shutdown fueled a “risk-on” mood, sending stocks higher and pushing bonds lower.
