We think GlobalFoundries has its work cut out for it and don't see a convincing enough near-term catalyst to upgrade GFS stock to a Buy ahead of Q2 earnings results.

The ETF's sector diversification is only marginally better than SPY, but its low expense ratio and methodology provide valuable portfolio diversification.
