Our read on PEXL
CPacer's export play: rank the S&P 900 by how much revenue comes from abroad, keep the 100 strongest cash generators, weight them equally. Global demand exposure, US-listed stocks.
The fund screens the S&P 900 for 100 large- and mid-capitalization U.S. companies with substantial foreign sales and high free-cash-flow margins, seeking to participate in global growth.
Why people hold it
- Buys global revenue, not foreign listings: the screen ranks S&P 900 names by share of sales made abroad, so overseas demand arrives via US-listed companies.sec.gov
- Two gates, not one: top 200 by foreign sales, cut to 100 on free cash flow, then equal weighted and rebalanced quarterly, which trims whatever just ran hot.sec.gov
- Priced at 0.60%, a shade under the median for active US equity funds, with a live record back to its 2018 launch.
Worth knowing
- Broad-market rivals cost a fraction: DFAU runs 0.12% and AVLC 0.15% versus 0.60% here.
- A modest asset base and light trading volume mean bid-ask spreads can run wider than at the mega-funds.
- The foreign-sales tilt cuts both ways: results ride on overseas demand and currency swings, not just the US economy.paceretfs.com
