Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF: Is Opportunity Emerging Again?
by : Mariana Mazzucato
The Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF (COWZ), managing $18 billion, maintains a 0.49% expense ratio and has demonstrated a strong 4.24% year-to-date return, outperforming its benchmarks. With quarterly portfolio adjustments, COWZ is increasingly allocating to the Energy sector, which currently accounts for 16% of its holdings, suggesting potential for significant performance if oil prices remain high. However, long-term investors should note its history of infrequent but substantial positive monthly returns. The fund is currently rated as "hold," with a detailed comparison to VFLO, IWD, and IWB planned.
