I Hate the Guts of This ETF: Sell URE

The guts of an ETF are its holdings. And an ETF’s guts are what drive my ETF ratings. As highlighted in Barron’s, the only truly diligent assessment of an ETF is based on its holdings. Research on an ETF’s holdings is important because an ETF’s performance is only as good as its holdings. Therefore, if you care about performance, you care about the ETF’s holdings.
