Got milk? Give him some GCOW. He'll think cows now and own the farm when he's 18.
This is why I like ETFs like ACWX, LVHI, DFIV, GCOW etc.
Hey! Thanks for sharing GARP & GCOW! GARP: Over the past 3 years, it had an **annualized return (AR) of 26.32%** with a **max drawdown (MDD) of 29.87%**, which gives it a **return-to-risk ratio (AR/MDD) of 0.88**. That basically means GARP gave you **88 cents of return for every $1 of drawdown risk.** With that ratio, GARP actually ranks in the **Top 5 out of the 50 ETFs** I analyzed. GCOW: Over the past 3 years, it had an **annualized return (AR) of 14.04%** with a **max drawdown (MDD) of 21.37%**, which gives it a **return-to-risk ratio (AR/MDD) of 0.66**. That basically means GCOW gave you **66 cents of return for every $1 of drawdown risk.** With that ratio, GCOW actually ranks in the **Top 10 out of the 50 ETFs** I analyzed. If you're curious to compare it with others, I put together a full list of the **Top 50 ETFs ranked by return-to-risk** across all 3 timeframes.

One thought is that you might go for dividend equities, that should be help the slow-but-steady you're going for, since even when it isn't actually going up, you're reinvesting the dividends either in the same equity or a different one, and growing the number of shares you're holding for when it does. Among other things, I've got JEPI, GCOW.
People need to realize there is way more than Voo and VTI out there and you are 100% vested in the future of the American economy. This years even with tariffs showed us how important international ETFs are for a true balanced portfolio. ESGD ICOW GCOW Fantastic international based ETFs
That skew is due to tech which the US has excelled at vs industrials which its nearest competitors stock markets are focused on. So looking at iShare’s IOO (the top 100 global stocks) it’s still ~ 80/20 getting into more mega-caps .. tech and other. Now getting into pure global or global dividend (the “GCOW” etf) it’s mostly 60/40-ish. Another idea might be a 60/40 global fund, but then add an international (“non-U.S”) developed market and/or EM etc.. slice to make it 50/50. Probably with dividends. That said as the world may get more dangerous, a 50/50 split (say US index/non-US total index) might [theoretically] work as the market may now demand more return to make up for increased risk vs the U.S. will see more internal deregulation. Probably depends on whether DC is bluffing for concessions or not. Also if there’s a big agreement in the west, there’s some talk the EU (probably having to give up a bit) can then deregulate some sectors to retake market share. GOP can’t complain about deregulation..
extremely tech heavy,. balance that out with some SCHD and GCOW. maybe some gold and silver coins on the side
It’s definitely not impossible. Is it the most likely explanation? I hope not. I would not make China my largest holding or even my largest overseas holdings. I personally like GCOW,PGJ, EEM for various reasons but the main single stocks I’m somewhat comfortable holding are JD and QFIN. I weight ETFs much higher than single stocks though. So I’m definitely not going on a buying spree on China stocks. I’m not avoiding them altogether though.
Dude that cash is earning nothing. Check out JAAA and CLOA. 7%. Triple A CLOs which have never defaulted. BINC and JPiE for high quality bonds with a little duration. The only stocks I own are a few regionals banks I bought in may, reits, COWZ, and GCOW.
Take your profits and diversify. If you don't have a plan, or an approach, and are here asking - even more reason to take the win. We are likely entering a slowdown. Markets are in goldilocks euphoria this month. Don't take that to sell everything. Just sell your peripheral gambles like these and put there somehow stable and better for the long term where you can withstand drawdowns. VOO is great, I'll also give big recommendations to COWZ. GCOW and CALF if you care to diversify internationally or for small caps.
I’m a deep value and dividend focused investor. A great “set it and forget it” ETF series I’ve found is [Pacer Funds Cash Cow ETF’s](https://www.paceretfs.com/products/cash-cows). I have an old rolled over 401k 100% in GCOW paying me about a 5% dividend.
I think FCF is a very important metric. You should check out a couple of ETFs: COWZ and GCOW. They are managed by the same company and the holdings are chosen based on FCF.
Dividends are something you want to do AFTER your retired. It’s a good way to receive income without having to sell your holdings. The problem with dividends is you need a LOT of shares for it to make a difference. I have half of my IRA in dividend stocks. In conjunction with my pension I’m actually making more each month than when I was working. So it really depends on your situation. There’s even a fund that’s up 10% this year. GCOW Global Cash Cow. Or PFF (I think that’s it?) Could be PFFD?
My stock app is bragging about some divident etf called GCOW thats up 10% while markets plunged, just checked it and its filled the gap to its ATH, perfect short opportunity if you havent lost all your money yet
20% VOO 20% SCHD 20% VIGI 20% COWZ 10% VGT 10% GCOW Basically SP500, US and International dividend appreciation and cash cows sprinkled with a more volatile Nasdaq without all the boring stuff
There are some ETFs that happen to be in the sweet spot of stocks that as a group, don't suck right now. For example, the Pacer cash cow ETFs, $COWZ & $GCOW, have been definitely green this whole time, and some actively managed ETFs like $AVUV have been bottoming out.
Not XOM. XOM is not currently a value stock because its stock price is jacked up by political events and a stampede of people piling into value stocks in Q1 2022. It may revert to value of supply disruptions of a long term nature take hold due to Russian conflict and if inflation is sustained. But I’m trying to exit a lot of my energy stocks RN. I think your issue is that you are looking at a small collection of well-known tickers. There are thousands of stocks on the exchanges. And other countries. In the past quarter and currently, a lot of value investors have turned to foreign stocks, which offer relatively more value right now. Also, with supply chain challenges and geopolitical disruptions, a lot if people are looking at quality/leadership quality of companies. Finally, the threat of inflation means companies that have string cashflow are favored. The companies whose stocks have been rising so far this year are not only value, but value + quality + cash cows, and international stocks are slightly outperforming on account of better value. An ETF that has done well is GCOW (Global Cash Cows). I own most of its stocks, but like I said about XOM, they’ve has a good run and are not as good a value if you were to buy them today.
