Q: For TSX exposure do you prefer XIC or XIU (or something else?) and why? Thanks.

Asked by Bruce on November 29, 2024

5i Research Answer:

XIC is a 'capped' ETF, meaning single company exposure is restricted. This provides more diversification to a TSX fund. The TSX is very heavily skewed to financials and energy. Thus, we prefer XIC for more diversifed exposure.
