COWZ: Cash Flow Yield May Not Always Be King
Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF has lagged peers recently, despite attractive valuations and a unique free cash flow focus. COWZ's performance now trails both iShares Russell 1000 Value ETF and SPDR S&P 1500 Value Tilt ETF across most recent timeframes. The fund's higher expense ratio (0.49%) and sector exclusions, especially financials, reduce its appeal, versus lower-cost, broader value ETFs, like VLU and IWD.
COWZ: A Possible Explanation For This Cash Cows ETF's Lackluster Returns
COWZ provides consistent exposure to 100 high-quality U.S. stocks trading at cheap valuations, as measured by free cash flow yield. COWZ's recent returns have been disappointing, and over the last year, it's been one of the worst-performing cash-flow-focused funds on the market. This article lists the 15 others I track. High quality is COWZ's current advantage, but my fundamental analysis reveals its peers generally offer a better growth and value combination. Notably, VFLO is superior to COWZ on both metrics.

COWZ: Health Care's Potential Turnaround Is Bullish (Rating Upgrade)
I'm upgrading COWZ from hold to buy, citing improved risk/reward and a modest valuation after recent underperformance versus the S&P 500. Health Care is now the largest sector weight in COWZ, and its cheap valuation and strengthening technicals could drive future outperformance. COWZ trades at just 13.6x earnings with a low PEG ratio, offering value exposure, though share momentum and historical volatility remain concerns.

COWZ: Great Strategy, Poor Execution!
COWZ focuses on high free cash flow yields, a basic value investing strategy which has rewarded me greatly over the decades. As a value investor, I'm attracted to so-called cash cows, mature businesses that deliver reliable cash flows which are distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends or buybacks. While I approve of the strategy, I dislike COWZ's execution. With a turnover rate close to 100%, the ETF replaces nearly all its holdings once a year.
