Q: In this environment are you still OK with ZGQ for growth with the high concentration of Tech & Healthcare? The list of holdings is quite impressive and seems like a good way to a variety of foreign holdings.
With 300 different companies, some US heavy Techs as top holdings and an MER of .51%, and their great returns it seems like a good foreign option for a growth portfolio.
I'd appreciate your comments.
Thanks

BMO MSCI All Country World High Quality Index ETF (ZGQ)
Q: Hi 5i,
Could you explain why you prefer XAW over ZGQ. I understand XAW has no Canadian exposure but ZGQ has much better returns and only .85% of the ETF is exposed to Canada.
Thanks
John

iShares MSCI Intl Quality Factor ETF (IQLT)
Q: Hello 5i,
I am looking for a Canadian dollar etf alternative to the above international quality factor etf. IQLT has 1% USA assets. Could you suggest two CAD etf alternatives: one with some USA assets and one without? I suspect the mer will be higher, but that’s ok.
Many thanks,
