With a new month just days away, now could be a great time for investors to take stock, reset, and consider where the best opportunities lie on the ASX.

And while markets have shown resilience in May, uncertainty still lingers — arguably making diversified, long-term investments more important than ever.

For those looking to position their portfolios for the future, a handful of ASX ETFs stand out as compelling buys in June. Here are three to consider buying for next month:

Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

If you want a piece of the world's best companies, then the Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF could be the ETF to buy. Tracking the Nasdaq 100 Index, the NDQ ETF gives you exposure to big names like Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA), and Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN).

These companies have been the engine of global growth for the past two decades and there's no sign that this momentum is slowing. It is for this reason that this fund could be a great long term pick for Aussie investors.

Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF (ASX: VGS)

Another ASX ETF for investors to consider buying in June along with the NDQ ETF is the Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF.

For those seeking a broad, diversified exposure to global markets, this fund could be a rock-solid option. It tracks over 1,500 companies across developed markets and gives you access to world-leading businesses like Nestle, Shell, and Samsung. This is in addition to many of the biggest names on Wall Street in the United States.

Overall, Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF could be a top core holding for long-term investors, offering global diversification without the need to pick winners.

Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)

Finally, the Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF could be a quality pick for Aussie investors in June.

It is fair to say that cybersecurity has never been more important. With artificial intelligence driving more sophisticated threats, businesses are pouring billions into security solutions. In light of this, the cybersecurity sector is being tipped for long-term structural growth.

The Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF provides investors with direct exposure to the companies protecting the digital world. This includes global leaders like CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD), Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), and Fortinet (NASDAQ: FTNT). Combined, they provide essential tools to safeguard governments, businesses, and consumers against the growing threat of cyberattacks.
