CGUS: Outperformance Continues, Factor Mix Remains Robust, Buy Rating Maintained

There are minor issues on the quality front though.

After assessing the ETF for the second time, I reiterate the Buy rating owing to its impressive performance track record and a mostly robust factor mix (value, growth, and quality). The risk is the broader market correction impacting CGUS as well, but its historical downside capture ratio suggests it should do better than IVV.
