With markets moving, earnings rolling in, and investors reassessing their strategies for the rest of the year, now could be a smart time to fine-tune your portfolio.

And if you're looking to invest without picking individual stocks, exchange traded funds (ETFs) remain one of the easiest — and smartest — ways to build long-term wealth.

Whether you're after growth, stability, diversification or future-focused exposure, here are five fantastic ASX ETFs to consider buying this month.

Betashares Cloud Computing ETF (ASX: CLDD)

The first ASX ETF to look at is the Betashares Cloud Computing ETF. It gives you exposure to the global leaders powering the cloud economy — one of the most critical foundations of modern business. With holdings in companies like Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW) and Shopify (NASDAQ: SHOP), this fund taps into growing demand for scalable, on-demand digital services across virtually every sector.

As businesses migrate to the cloud and adopt more complex IT infrastructure, the Betashares Cloud Computing ETF offers a high-growth thematic play on a trend that's only going one way: up. The team at Betashares recently named it as one to buy.

Betashares Crypto Innovators ETF (ASX: CRYP)

The Betashares Crypto Innovators ETF provides investors with access to companies that are operating at the forefront of the blockchain and digital assets industry. While it doesn't invest directly in cryptocurrencies, it includes businesses like Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN) and Riot Platforms (NASDAQ: RIOT) — key players in crypto trading and mining.

Crypto markets remain volatile, but this ASX ETF offers a diversified way to invest in this space through traditional equity markets. It could be perfect for investors who believe in the long-term future of digital assets.

Betashares Global Robotics and Artificial Intelligence ETF (ASX: RBTZ)

Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer on the horizon — it is here and growing fast. The Betashares Global Robotics and Artificial Intelligence ETF gives you exposure to global companies in robotics, automation, and AI technology. This includes names like NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG).

This ASX ETF is built for investors who want to ride the wave of innovation, as everything from manufacturing to healthcare to logistics is transformed by automation. With AI continuing to disrupt industries, it could be a great play on the next decade of productivity and tech advancement. Betashares recently tipped it as one to buy.

iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF (ASX: IXI)

The iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF holds a basket of leading global consumer staples — companies that produce products we use every day, regardless of economic cycles. Think Nestle, Procter & Gamble, and Coca-Cola.

In times of uncertainty or market volatility, consumer staples can offer defensive strength and consistent dividends. This ASX ETF could be a smart addition for investors who want international diversification with a steady, lower-risk profile.

Vanguard Australian Shares Index ETF (ASX: VAS)

Finally, the Vanguard Australian Shares Index ETF is the go-to ASX ETF for broad exposure to the top 300 Australian companies, tracking the S&P/ASX 300 Index. It includes the banks, miners, healthcare leaders, and industrials that make up the backbone of the Aussie market.

With low fees, attractive dividend yields, and instant diversification, this fund could be a core building block for any ASX-focused portfolio — and a great choice for long-term investors seeking reliable performance from the local market.
