Texas InstrumentsMarkets InsiderFund: GMO US Quality ETF (QLTY)Weight in fund: 3.8%Tom Hancock, the manager for the GMO US Quality ETF (QLTY), identified Texas Instruments (TXN) as the holding in his fund he's most bullish on given that it has recently underperformed much of the semiconductor industry. "Texas Instruments is a semiconductor company without a strong 'AI' story behind it. The stock has hence lagged its industry despite great long-term fundamentals and strong management," Hancock said. "Those chips go into all manner of applications across industrial, automotive, consumer electronics, communications infrastructure as well as data centers. Shares of Texas Instruments are up 7% over the last 12 months.

He favors small-cap, mid-cap, and quality stocks over the Big Tech mega-caps leading the market rally for three reasons. One is that the earnings winning streak that Magnificent Seven stocks have enjoyed is simply difficult to keep going. In the first quarter of this year, Magnificent Seven earnings grew by 50% annualized year-over-year, according to Ned Davis Research. Wall Street estimates Magnificent Seven earnings will grow by 28% year-over-year in Q2. When it comes to innovating and adapting, small and mid-cap companies' size gives them a relative advantage.

Why Goldman Sachs is helping its clients launch ETFs
  + stars: | 2024-04-01 | by ( Josephine Rozzelle | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Investor demand for exchange-traded funds is not slowing down, and firms without ETF offerings may risk losing business, according to one Goldman Sachs expert. "Any number of our clients would tell you, the opportunity cost of not [offering ETF products] is greater," he recently told CNBC's "ETF Edge." To help clients through the process of launching their own ETF products, Goldman Sachs created its ETF Accelerator, a digital platform that helps clients launch, list and manage their own ETF products. The idea was it made it easier to launch an ETF, but it didn't make it easy," Sachs said. It can still take years to build the expertise, headcount and risk management framework necessary to launch an ETF, said Sachs.

The GMO US Quality ETF (QLTY) launched on November 12, and as its name implies, the fund seeks to offer investors exposure to so-called quality stocks through an actively managed approach. This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. "At GMO, internally we also talk about intrinsic value, which is adjusting for growth and quality," Hancock said. The aerospace business manufactures and re-services airplane engines, and the continued resurgence in global demand for travel following the pandemic bodes well for the business, Hancock said. While the timing of the ETF release is not related to Grantham's call, Hancock said quality stocks are typically more defensive in a recessionary environment.

Actively managed exchange-traded funds are having their time in the limelight as ETF managers seek new strategies beyond passive funds. "But with active management, you can differentiate assuming the active manager is actually doing something meaningfully different than the underlying benchmark," he added. While active ETFs have been around since 2008, the popularity took off in 2019 after the SEC eased launch restrictions. So far this year, the number of active ETFs that have launched have already overtaken passive ETFs by a ratio of three to one, according to Morningstar. While it's the firm's first active ETF, GMO has run a traditional actively managed mutual fund called the GMO Quality Fund (GQETX) since 2004.

Jeremy Grantham's investment firm is taking its first steps to enter the world of exchange traded funds, debuting a new offering modeled on one of Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo's crown jewel mutual funds. The GMO U.S. Quality ETF (QLTY) launched last Wednesday, marking the investment firm's first ETF. The new ETF will be managed by the same team that helms GMO Quality III mutual fund ( GQETX ). The QLTY ETF should see a similar turnover rate of around 20% to what the mutual fund has, he added. Jeremy Grantham, GMO's chief investment strategist, is not directly involved in the new ETF.

Value exchange-traded funds have lagged growth in 2023 due to an unusual circumstance unfolding in the market, according to two experts. As of Tuesday's close, the iShares S&P 500 Growth ETF (IVW) has gained 22.84% this year. The iShares S&P 500 Value ETF (IVE) is up 11.27% in the same period. The IVE value ETF fell 7.38% last year, while the IVW growth ETF dropped 30.08%. "If you think about this, that's a really tough pill to swallow for value investors after it appeared value was turning the corner in 2022 following years of underperformance," he added.
