How did TUR perform after previous MSCI warnings?
Historically, TUR sold off sharply after similar warnings, but recovered when the review concluded without an immediate downgrade. The ETF tends to underperform during classification uncertainty.
Is TUR still a good buy despite the warning?
Contrarian investors may see value, but the risk of a forced downgrade adds significant uncertainty. Near-term, caution is warranted until MSCI clarifies the review timeline.
