Q: Would any of these ETF's have year-end distributions?
Is it a good idea to just wait until the new calendar year now, to start a new position in one of these?

Asked by Robert on December 10, 2024

5i Research Answer:

None of these funds has an additional distribution last year. Now, markets have been stronger in 2024, but we would still be comfortable with new buying and would not really expect year end distributions here to be a factor.
