The Pacer US Small Cap Cash Cows 100 ETF (CALF) has been a resounding success. With more than $9 billion in assets under management and performance that beats the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM) over the past year, investors in CALF have nothing to complain about.  

But is CALF’s success too much of a good thing? Could the ETF’s large size be influencing the prices of its holdings, leading to poor performance down the line?

Sean O'Hara, President of Pacer ETFs, an ETF issuer with over $40 billion in assets under management, sits down with etf.com Senior Analyst Sumit Roy to discuss.

O’Hara also highlights some of his firm’s lesser-known cash cow ETFs, as well as how he sees Pacer’s largest ETF, the Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF (COWZ), performing going forward.
