Seeking Yield In Equity Funds With Lower Valuations And Risk
I track about a thousand funds using Mutual Fund Observer and have developed a ranking system to group equity funds into four categories based on risk, valuation, and/or yield. Tier One contains the Lipper Categories and funds that have a combination of lower risk, lower valuations, and higher yields. Tier Two contains those with low to moderate valuations and have lower risk.

GCOW: Global Diversification And Cash Flow At A Cost
Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF warrants a hold rating due to mixed factors, including high fees and potentially low future dividend growth. GCOW offers global diversification with high free cash flow, but has the highest expense ratio among compared ETFs with relatively high payout ratios. A strong U.S. dollar along with high proposed tariffs risk future returns for many of GCOW's top holdings.

Want High Dividends and Low Risk? This ETF Can Be an Ideal Option for Your Portfolio.
Dividend stocks can provide you with a lot of recurring income over the long term. But they can also prove to be risky investments to hold on their own because if a company's financials deteriorate, it may need to cut or stop its dividend.

GCOW: A Stable Dividend Strategy With Limited Growth Potential
GCOW invests in high FCF-yielding large-cap value stocks, resulting in moderate long-term capital appreciation and a 4.7% dividend yield. The fund's high exposure to energy and defensive sectors, combined with low technology exposure, limits its growth potential. GCOW's unhedged international investments expose it to currency risk, affecting performance based on U.S. dollar strength.

GCOW: An International Dividend Fund With A Solid Track Record
GCOW offers global exposure to high-dividend stocks with strong cash flows, making it a solid choice for income investors seeking diversification. Despite a higher expense ratio, GCOW's defensive sector allocations and high dividend yield provide downside protection and offset opportunity costs during market uncertainty. There is another compelling alternative due to its lower fees and larger portfolio that I will discuss in this article.

GCOW: Lacking Style Momentum Heading Into 2025
US stocks outperformed ex-US stocks in November, with the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund showing significant alpha over the Vanguard FTSE All-World Ex-US ETF. I maintain a hold rating on the Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF, which has underperformed the S&P 500 by about 10 percentage points since March. GCOW offers a high dividend yield and a low P/E ratio, but has mixed valuation indicators and technical signals, with a potential bearish death cross.

GCOW: Cheap Valuation, High Yield And Dividend Growth
Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF offers a 5.77% yield with double-digit dividend growth, outperforming peers in both yield and growth. The fund's valuation is cheap with an average free cash flow yield of 6.79% and P/E of 8.37 (versus SPY's P/E of 28), focusing on global stocks with lower valuations. While the fund may underperform indices in share price appreciation, it could be a safer choice in bear markets or choppy conditions for income-oriented investors.
