A common myth in the capital markets is that, in order to achieve growth, investors need to accept greater volatility. The VictoryShares Free Cash Flow Growth ETF (GFLW) solves this dilemma by targeting profitable, growing companies using free cash flow (FCF). Additionally, the Victory Free Cash Flow Growth Index (the “Index”) weighs them by risk-adjusted momentum to mitigate potential downside.

Two recent TMX VettaFi advisor polls found that unfamiliarity with free cash flow (FCF) yield and portfolio integration are the top hurdles to broader adoption of FCF strategies. The findings shape how VictoryShares and Solutions positions its FCF ETF suite for advisors navigating today’s market. FCF is the remaining cash a company has after covering all expenses — capital available to reinvest in the business, pay dividends, or pay down debt. We believe FCF exposure gives investors a way to assess value through a single, fundamental metric as traditional asset allocation frameworks come under pressure.

While prices are projected to drift lower in the second half of 2026, robust demand from battery energy storage systems (BESS) should buoy the lithium market.

Investor appetite for fixed income continues to expand, as evidenced by the latest weekly ETF inflows report from TD Securities. For the week ending August 14, 2026, U.S.-listed ETFs gathered $41.0 billion in total weekly net inflows, which included $13.2 billion into fixed income funds. The accumulation of fixed income assets signals an emerging rotation toward bonds as investors are taking a more defensive portfolio posture, capturing yield in this higher-for-longer rate environment, and managing duration to mitigate rate risk.

It’s been another year of record-breaking feats for ETFs. Various firms are pegging this year’s inflows to cross the $2 trillion milestone, and Goldman Sachs added its stamp of approval to that forecast. According to new data

Recent market turbulence across South Korea’s benchmark technology leaders underscores the importance of active management in emerging markets (EM) investing.
