Q: Hi 5i, I am looking for some new options for relatively conservative, monthly income funds. I would prefer no leverage and no return of capital. Over the years, you have mentioned these three funds (ZMI, XTR, FIE). Are there any new options that you would add to this list? Have the fundamentals changed on any of these three that would cause you to no longer recommend them? Thanks so much.

Q: How safe is this ETF for monthly income. Been holding for a bit.

Q: Hi, I have these two stocks in my rrif account. Thinking of selling my two losers DIR and TELUS, and putting it in ZMI.
DIR and TELUS don’t seem to be doing much, while ZMI has US holdings, is steadily increasing in price with a good dividend.
This would be for a 5+ year period.. your thoughts please.
