FXR: Swapping Quality For Value In The Industrials Sector — Positive

FXR   Seeking Alpha — February 12, 2025

FXR selects Industrials stocks from the Russell 1000 Index with high growth or value scores, whichever is better. Its expense ratio is 0.60% and FXR has $1.97 billion in assets. Its tiered-weighting scheme, although unorthodox, is beneficial in this sector. Historically, equal-weight funds have outperformed market-cap-weighted ones. While FXR's long-term track record doesn't suggest the strategy works, there are some important caveats. For example, its benchmark, IYJ, changed Indexes in September 2021.

QDTE: Here's Why You Can Trust This 35% Ultra-Yielding Option Income ETF — Positive

QDTE   Seeking Alpha — February 12, 2025

While initially skeptical, we now see QDTE as a high-quality, high-yield ETF with serious upside / income potential, despite the risks. QDTE's construction involves daily selling 0DTE call options on Nasdaq 100 exposure, converting potential intraday gains into weekly cash income distributions. QDTE will likely suffer from some NAV erosion, but we're upgrading QDTE to a 'Buy' as the fund's income generation should materially outpace these losses.

PLTR   Seeking Alpha — February 12, 2025

Palantir's Q4 earnings exceeded expectations, showing strong customer growth and operational efficiency, reinforcing the company's potential for future expansion and revenue increases. Despite a 75% gain, Palantir still presents scenarios with significant upside, driven by continued dominance and the secular AI trend.
