3 Fidelity ETFs to Buy in February and Hold for a Decade (Or Longer)

With the world of exchange traded funds, investors have plentiful options to choose from not only in terms of the vast number of products available in the market (more than 10,000) but the number of ETF providers as well.

Fidelity is a top ETF provider I personally use, and I have to say that the breadth of the company’s offerings means there are some funds I’d select, and others I’d avoid.

The good news is that there probably are more ETFs I’d consider investment-worthy than not, with many of the company’s largest ETFs (in terms of assets under management) my go-to options.

The following three funds are each within Fidelity’s top 10 offerings in terms of assets under management, and there are good reasons why long-term investors choose to buy these ETFs and not sell. These three are among the top ETFs I’d suggest investors consider for truly long-term exposure (a decade or longer).

Fidelity Fundamental Large Cap Growth ETF (FFLG)

For investors looking for an ETF with a proprietary multi factor model emphasizing fundamentals like earnings growth, profitability and valuation (while targeting large-cap U.S. stocks), the Fidelity Fundamental Large Cap Growth ETF (FFLG) is a go-to option in my books.

Holding around 140 stocks spanning sectors like technology, industrials and consumer-facing names, FFLG is perhaps the closest approximation of the U.S. stock market, in my view. Indeed, for investors looking to put capital to work in only the most investment-worthy U.S. stocks with the most robust balance sheets and long-term growth prospects, this is the ETF that provides such exposure.

One could argue that investing in just the top 140 stocks on the basis of size (and the other quality factors mentioned above), investors should receive returns on par with (or better) than investing in a broader index fund. Such a strategy would have led to outperformance in most years in the past two decades, and this is a strategy I think can still work well for the coming decade (and longer).

With an expense ratio that’s slightly higher than most ETFs I consider as options I’d consider (at 0.38%), I think the company’s multi factor model is one worth considering. Any actively managed ETF with such filters can result in higher turnover, and higher fees. But over the long-term, these ETFs can also provide the sort of sleep-at-night exposure long-term investors are looking for, and that’s worth something.

Fidelity High Dividend ETF (FDVV)

For investors looking to amplify their dividend income, and generate meaningful passive income in retirement, the Fidelity High Dividend ETF (FDVV) is a top choice of mine.

This ETF focuses primarily on large and mid-cap stocks in the international realm (outside of the U.S.). The good news is that for many top-tier, high-quality international stocks, the yields on these names are much higher than they are here at home.

With a current yield of nearly 3% and an expense ratio of 0.15%, FDVV provides the best of the yield-generation large-cap stocks can provide, along with geographic diversification, at a rock-bottom price. That’s a value proposition I can get behind.

This ETF has outperformed other high-yield focused ETFs due to the company’s makeup, and greater exposure to the AI trend. With a sector tilt favoring companies with income stability and capital appreciation, I’d argue FDVV is much more than a yield play – it’s a total return play. For long-term investors, that’s all one can ask for.

Fidelity Enhanced New India ETF (FENI)

Last, but certainly not least on this list of top Fidelity ETFs to consider, is one I haven’t touched on before. That said, the Fidelity Enhanced New India ETF (FENI) is one ETF I probably should have jumped on years ago.

The thing is, I don’t think it’s too late for investors to seek out exposure to one of the highest-growth markets in the world, in India. The Indian economy continues to grow at breakneck speed, with pretty consistent double-digit (or near-double-digit) annual GDP growth. What this means is that investors putting capital to work in India really only have one major concern – changes in the value of the Indian Rupee relative to the U.S. Dollar.

That said, with the dollar being quite weak of late, the incredible returns the Indian stock market (and FENI by extension) have provided have only been amplified. Indeed, this is one of the top-performing ETFs in Fidelity’s book for this reason, despite a number of scandals which have rocked the Indian stock market in recent years.

However, I think the approach from FENI in providing exposure to the top 25-50 stocks in the Indian stock market (rather than the entire NIFTY 500) makes this fund one that can continue to provide above-market returns in a safer fashion. For those still cautious about the Indian market, and worried about individual stock risk, FENI is how I’d play this particular high-growth geography in 2026 and for the long-term.
