At the center of everything we do is a strong commitment to independent research and sharing its profitable discoveries with investors. This dedication to giving investors a trading advantage led to the creation of our proven Zacks Rank stock-rating system. Since 1988 it has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +24.20% per year. These returns cover a period from January 1, 1988 through April 1, 2024. Zacks Rank stock-rating system returns are computed monthly based on the beginning of the month and end of the month Zacks Rank stock prices plus any dividends received during that particular month. A simple, equally-weighted average return of all Zacks Rank stocks is calculated to determine the monthly return. The monthly returns are then compounded to arrive at the annual return. Only Zacks Rank stocks included in Zacks hypothetical portfolios at the beginning of each month are included in the return calculations. Zacks Ranks stocks can, and often do, change throughout the month. Certain Zacks Rank stocks for which no month-end price was available, pricing information was not collected, or for certain other reasons have been excluded from these return calculations. Zacks may license the Zacks Mutual Fund rating provided herein to third parties, including but not limited to the issuer.

Social Media ETF (BUZ) Hits New 52-Week High
For investors seeking momentum, BUZZ US Sentiment Leaders ETF is probably on radar now. The fund just hit a 52-week high and is up more than 33% from its 52-week low price of $27.89/share.
But are more gains in store for this ETF? Let’s take a quick look at the fund and the near-term outlook on it to get a better idea on where it might be headed:
BUZ in Focus
This fund targets the most frequently mentioned stocks across the social media landscape. It is well diversified across 78 securities, with none accounting for more than 3.62% of assets. The ETF charges 75 basis points in annual fees (see: all the Large Cap ETFs here).
Why the Move?
The social media corner of the broad equity market has been an area to watch lately given the football fervor. The FIFA World Cup is a money-spinner for social media networks, attracting billions of revenues in a month. Social media will play a vital role in viewing the real-time World Cup matches and sharing the favorite moments. The soccer tournament will also create heavy traffic for news and sports sites, and extra searches that would lift broad online advertising revenues.
More Gains Ahead?
It seems that BUZ might remain strong given a high weighted alpha of 33.60% and a low 20-day volatility of 8.40%. As a result, there is definitely still some promise for investors who want to ride on this surging ETF a little further.
