Q: I am interested in these for steady income while limiting capital losses in an RRSP. Your thoughts on both in terms of quality and ability to withstand a downturn?
-
iShares Floating Rate Index ETF (XFR $20.04)
-
PIMCO Income Strategy Fund Shares of Beneficial Interest (PFL $8.45)
-
iShares Flexible Monthly Income ETF (XFLI $40.01)
Q: I have a very large sum of cash sitting in xfr at a paltry 3% yield
I'm contemplating shifting some to xfli (5.7%) and pfl:US (11.6 %) for the enhanced yield to result in a double and quadruple in monthly income
I understand there is more "risk" (interest rates, and some leverage with pfl), however,
I feel that the reward far out weighs the risk in order to increase monthly income
What do you see as a worst case scenario. I look forward to your comments.
Thank you so much
