Q: Subject: Follow-Up on Monthly Dividend ETF Recommendations

Hi 5i team,

Thank you for your thoughtful response to my question regarding safer monthly income alternatives to Whitecap Resources. I understand the appeal of Canadian ETFs, especially in registered accounts where avoiding the 15% U.S. withholding tax is beneficial.

That said, I was wondering are there any U.S.-listed ETFs that you would feel comfortable recommending which offer monthly dividends, strong diversification, and a yield comparable to or better than Whitecap’s, while maintaining a reasonable level of safety and consistency?

I’d be open to covered call or enhanced income strategies as long as the risk profile isn’t excessive. Would appreciate your perspective on whether there are any U.S. options worth considering despite the tax implication.

Thanks again,

Q: Good evening!
Looking to add to my portfolio, and these are all high dividend payers. Could you rank them with regard to safety (primarily preservation of capital with low chance of potential problems on any visible horizon), and then also rank them from best grower to worst grower? Please take credits you think are fair.
Thanks! Paul K
