Undercovered ETFs: Nuclear, Uranium, China, India +
The 'Undercovered' Dozen series highlights lesser-covered ETFs, offering insights from various authors on potential investment opportunities and market trends. Global X Uranium ETF is seen as well-placed for a uranium bull market, driven by increasing demand for nuclear energy from major tech companies. iShares MSCI India ETF offers exposure to India's fast-growing economy, presenting perhaps a strong investment opportunity despite recent pullbacks due to shifts towards the Chinese market.

ZROZ: Don't Be Confused By Macro Data
Despite recent volatility, I maintain a "Buy" rating on the ZROZ ETF as a recession hedge, given the uncertain economic outlook. Higher implied premiums may lead to worse performance of long-term US treasuries in a soft landing scenario. Potential downward revisions in non-farm payrolls data suggest long-term US Treasuries may see a sharp rally in early 2025.

ZROZ: Recession Protection On Sale
The PIMCO 25+ Year Zero Coupon U.S. Treasury Index ETF tracks long-dated US government STRIPS, giving it increased interest rate sensitivity. The current 4.5% yield on long-dated US treasuries is well above the Fed's neutral rate and should deliver higher returns relative to the short end of the curve. A 4.5% nominal annual return for 25-30 years will likely lag behind riskier alternatives such as equities or real estate.

Rates Spark: ECB Presser Bear-Flattened The Curve
The ECB cut rates by 25bp as widely anticipated, but a slightly hawkish tilt bear flattened the EUR curve, which in our view remains priced aggressively. In the US, as the markets head towards the Fed's first rate cut, the probability of a larger cut rose slightly on Thursday.

ZROZ ETF: Better Staying On The Sidelines For Now
ZROZ ETF is a long-term zero-coupon bond vehicle managed by PIMCO, which has shed nearly 15% of its value in the past year. We believe the volatile interest rate environment makes this long-duration bond vehicle unattractive. A rising term premium and liquidity worries might dampen ZROZ's pricing and dividend-based prospects.

ZROZ Vs. EDV: Which Zero Coupon Treasury ETF Is Better?
Zero coupon treasury bonds are considered to be a better way to benefit from rate cuts in the US compared to ordinary treasury bonds. While the bond market is getting repriced for a "higher for longer" scenario, I expect interest rate cuts sooner rather than later. Both ZROZ and EDV are fine if you expect interest rate cuts in the foreseeable future, though one of these two ETFs is slightly better.
