CALF: Small Consumer Discretionary Stocks Perking Up, And That's Bullish

CALF's largest sector exposure is Consumer Discretionary, which is showing strong momentum versus Consumer Staples, supporting a bullish outlook. Despite recent underperformance, CALF's low valuation, high free cash flow yield, and improving technicals make it attractive for the rest of 2024. The ETF is cheap with a P/E under 11x and a PEG ratio well below the S&P 500, offering solid long-term EPS growth.

CALF: Low Valuation, Performance Subdued

CALF: This Struggling Cash Cows ETF Needed A Strategy Change - And It Got One

CALF has been one of the worst-performing small-cap value funds over the last two years. Something had to change, and fortunately, an update to the Index methodology occurred in March. At first glance, the main change was selecting 200 stocks instead of 100, which naturally improved diversification. However, CALF's Index also widened its selection universe from 600 to 2,500 stocks. As a result, CALF functions more like a small/mid-cap ETF compared to dedicated small-cap value peers like IJS, AVUV, SFLO, and USVM.

CALF: Why Investors Stopped Caring About Small Cap Stocks

CALF, an ETF that prioritizes cash flow generating smaller stocks, reflects the malaise that continues to make that market segment unattractive. Barring a near-term bounce, CALF is merely the bad of a bad bunch of small cap ETFs, simply because investors have other places to look. This asset class was historically exciting investors, but that thrill has moved to big AI stocks. While it CALF may outperform in a bear market, that is no consolation.
