VictoryShares Free Cash Flow ETF

VFLO tracks an index composed of the largest U.S. companies based on profit that are perceived to have strong free cash flow yields and high growth metrics.

In an investing environment rife with risk, one of the top investment trends of the last year centers around increased cash on the sidelines. However, there may be value in putting some of that cash to work in free cash flow (FCF) strategies this year.

Put Cash to Work in Free Cash Flow Strategies

VFLO's quarterly reconstitution took effect Monday, substituting 13/50 holdings mostly in favor of Health Care and at the expense of Technology. Despite this shakeup, VFLO's quality and value features remain solid. VFLO's estimated sales and earnings growth rates also improved due to its Index's secondary growth screen. Investors should consider VFLO's extreme concentration, as it's only a 50-stock fund, with 70% allocated to three sectors. One of those has poor long-term risk-adjusted returns.

The debate regarding a hard or soft economic landing continues into the summer months. Investors looking for the benefits of value stocks while still leaning towards growth may want to consider opportunities in the VictoryShares Free Cash Flow ETF (VFLO).

Oil fell to four-month lows last week, a reminder that energy investing comes with risk, not just reward.  “OPEC+ production cuts were extended as expected, but incremental voluntary cuts from select countries are set to start unwinding in October,” explained Stacey Morris, head of energy research at VettaFi.

The U.S. economy continues to prove resilient in 2024, but a potential rise in risk factors in the second quarter weighs heavily on investors' minds. For those looking to position defensively within equities while avoiding equity growth FOMO (fear of missing out), the VictoryShares free cash flow ETFs are worth consideration.

VFLO invests in U.S. equities with above-average free cash flow yields and growth. VFLO has a higher free cash flow yield than the S&P 500 and Russell 1000 value index. The fund has significantly outperformed equity indexes and peers since inception, although that was a short while ago.

VFLO: Strong FCF Yield ETF, Cheap Valuation

Advisors and investors concerned about equity valuations and stability in high-rate environments may be looking to free cash flow companies for opportunity. Growth is an important factor to also assess when considering high free cash flow-yielding companies, but faster growth isn't always better when viewed in isolation.

VFLO is a relatively new FCF Yield ETF with assets under management of $300 million. The first alternative to COWZ, VFLO distinguishes itself by incorporating estimated FCF into the process. With quarterly reconstitutions and only 50 stocks selected, investors should expect high turnover and poor diversification. Currently, 92% of the portfolio is allocated to just five sectors. The benefits include an attractive set of fundamentals, including a 13.27x forward P/E, double-digit free cash flow margins, and at least temporarily, strong momentum.

How Free Cash Flow ETFs Introduce Factors to Portfolios

Amplify Cash Flow Dividend Leaders ETF

Warren Buffett considers free cash flow, or "owner earnings," the truest form of intrinsic value for a company. History has proven him correct. FCF yield (FCF/EV) is the best-performing strategy of the last 33 years, with almost 18% average annual returns or 151X returns vs. 22X for the S&P. FCF yield ETFs are becoming popular with COWZ, COWS, and VFLO now competing for investor interest.

The market is near record highs and NVDA is up 11 straight weeks. Yet, blue-chip coiled spring bargains are still bountiful. VFLO is the best deep value strategy ETF I've found. A great combo of deep value, quality, and growth. It's beating the S&P, value, and even the Nasdaq since inception. Combining ETFs with individual stocks is a great way to potentially achieve superior returns and yield than ETFs can achieve.

Encouraging investors to maintain a diversified portfolio is challenging when one asset class has outperformed the others in recent years. Many investors are hesitant to allocate to value, as many value strategies have lagged in recent history.

Many investors tend to focus on past performance or backward-looking indicators when evaluating a stock's future potential. While a stock's past performance, valuation, or historic cash flow yield can potentially serve as a guide to assessing its future strength, these measures do not provide a comprehensive picture of a security's potential to generate attractive returns.

How Future Free Cash Flow Creates Returns for Investors

In recent years, the energy sector has focused on improving free cash flow generation, unveiling a compelling investment opportunity. Historically, energy companies tended to prioritize growth at the expense of free cash flow (FCF).
