What is happening

Recent company-specific developments and publisher coverage.

July 17, 2026The Pacer US Large Cap Cash Cows Growth Leaders ETF closed modestly lower, weighed down by a broad semiconductor selloff that hit its top holdings hard. The fund's heavy 57% technology tilt — with top positions including SanDisk, Western Digital, Iridium, Astera Labs, and Lam Research — faced significant headwinds as global chip stocks shed trillions in market value amid concerns over AI return-on-investment, a new powerful Chinese AI model from Moonshot, and reports of Alphabet's Gemini delays. Notably, a US News & World Report piece published today highlighted COWG's five-star Morningstar rating and its differentiated free cash flow margin screening methodology as a compelling approach for investors seeking quality growth exposure.

-0.7454

July 16, 2026Pacer US Large Cap Cash Cows Growth Leaders ETF declined on Thursday as several of its top holdings faced headwinds. Western Digital fell over 7% on broad profit-taking in memory and storage stocks ahead of earnings, while chip-equipment names like Lam Research and KLA also pulled back amid AI spending scrutiny. Despite positive macro support from softer June PPI data and strong Q2 bank earnings, broader tech weakness dragged the fund lower, with the S&P 500 finishing mixed as investors rotated out of high-flying semiconductor and AI-adjacent names.

-1.4019

July 15, 2026The Pacer US Large Cap Cash Cows Growth Leaders ETF closed modestly lower, declining about 1.1%, as its top holdings faced a mixed session. Key portfolio names including Sandisk (SNDK, ~4.7%) pulled back after multiple analyst downgrades flagged stretched valuations following a massive YTD rally, while semiconductor equipment stocks Lam Research (LRCX) and KLA Corp (KLAC) rebounded 4–5% on improving chip-equipment sentiment ahead of earnings. The broader tape was shaped by a soft June CPI report that lifted tech sentiment, but IBM's 23%+ plunge on a revenue miss weighed on software-adjacent names and added volatility across the market.

-1.104

July 14, 2026The Pacer US Large Cap Cash Cows Growth Leaders ETF edged up nearly 1%, buoyed by a broad cybersecurity rebound and a cooler-than-expected June CPI print that lifted the Nasdaq off Monday's Iran-driven selloff. Top holdings Fortinet and Palo Alto Networks surged as cybersecurity stocks rallied sharply on cooling inflation data, while Okta jumped over 10% on strong earnings and AI-driven identity security demand. Offsetting gains, top holding SanDisk (SNDK) faced renewed pressure after plunging over 12% Monday amid South Korean chip sector weakness tied to Samsung's Q2 results, though it recovered ~4.5% on Tuesday amid Goldman Sachs' reiterated Buy and persistent NAND demand optimism.

0.9852

July 13, 2026The Pacer US Large Cap Cash Cows Growth Leaders ETF declined nearly 1.7% as a broad semiconductor-driven selloff weighed on its top holdings. The fund's largest positions — SanDisk (SNDK), Western Digital (WDC), Iridium (IRDM), Astera Labs (ALAB), and Lam Research (LRCX) — all faced headwinds from a sharp Asia chip selloff led by SK Hynix's 14% plunge, which rattled global semiconductor sentiment. Compounding pressure, renewed U.S.-Iran military exchanges sent oil prices surging ~5% and weighed on broader equities heading into a pivotal week of Q2 earnings, including major bank results and TSMC's report.

-1.6786

July 9, 2026Pacer US Large Cap Cash Cows Growth Leaders ETF rose nearly 2% in regular trading, outperforming the broader S&P 500, as its tech-heavy holdings rallied on persistent AI infrastructure enthusiasm. Top holding Iridium Communications (IRDM, ~4.5%) remains in focus amid the pending Rocket Lab acquisition at $54/share in a cash-and-stock deal valued at ~$8 billion expected to close mid-2027, while Western Digital (WDC, ~4.3%) surged 7% on bullish analyst sentiment around AI storage demand. Fellow holdings SanDisk (SNDK, ~4.3%) and Astera Labs (ALAB, ~3.6%) also contributed to the day's gains. In after-hours trading, COWG edged back down modestly as broader market sentiment turned cautious amid renewed US-Iran military exchanges that sent oil prices surging and reignited inflation concerns.

1.9582

July 8, 2026The Pacer US Large Cap Cash Cows Growth Leaders ETF closed essentially flat, holding steady near $38.73 as its technology-heavy holdings faced a broad macro headwind. President Trump declared the Iran ceasefire 'over,' sending oil prices surging more than 5% and triggering a global risk-off move that weighed on equities. The ETF's top holdings — including SanDisk (SNDK, down ~12% amid chip-sector profit-taking), Lam Research (LRCX, down ~6.7%), Astera Labs (ALAB, down ~11%), and KLA Corp (KLAC, down ~6.6%) — all faced significant pressure from a broad semiconductor and AI infrastructure selloff, while cybersecurity names like Palo Alto Networks and Okta provided partial offsets with resilience. In after-hours trading, COWG edged modestly higher to $38.90, reflecting cautious stabilization as investors also await Fed minutes from the June meeting for clues on monetary policy.

0.0263

July 7, 2026Pacer US Large Cap Cash Cows Growth Leaders ETF declined, weighed down by a broad semiconductor selloff that hit several of its top holdings hard. Memory and chip names including SanDisk, Lam Research, KLA, and Astera Labs fell sharply — down 8–12% — as investors took profits following Samsung's 'sell the news' reaction to stellar Q2 earnings, stoking fears that AI-driven chip valuations had run too far. The fund's tech-heavy holdings dragged it lower even as cybersecurity names like Palo Alto and Okta — also in the portfolio — posted gains on analyst upgrades.
