We review the 3 new defence ETFs, Elon's mixed week & stealing from your partner

Elon Musk had a mixed week, his Tesla cybercab event disappointed with shares falling 9%. Meanwhile, SpaceX's latest launch amazed as the booster was caught 'chopstick-style' by the launch pad. We unpack it all in today's episode.

Meanwhile, back here in Australia, three of the major ETF providers have launched very similar ETFs:

• Vaneck Global Defence ETF (ASX: DFND) - 10 September 2024
• Betashares Global Defence ETFs (ASX: ARMR) - 4 October 2024 
• Global X Defence Tech ETF (ASX: DTEC) - 7 October 2024

On today's podcast, we compare them each of them and share our preferences.

Finally, we close out the episode with some investors confessions.
