Q: Please ignore my previous question . I accidentally hit the send button before I had finished editing it .......Here is the same question after editing .......

I've been enjoying the amount of option related dividends going into my account monthly. I call it Taco investing . Trump announces something stupid and then backs off . This creates volatility in the options market creating higher option premiums . What I have ....

GDXY ...... 9% position .

SLVO ...... 3.2% position

HPYT ...... 3.79% position

HYLD ......6.72% position { the lowest yield at 11.2% } May replace wtih SDAY or start a new position .

I'm looking to increase my exposure to " honking big dividends " in the 14% or better category .... My shortlist includes UMAX { 14.83% yield } and ECAT { 22% yield } I realize the higher the yield the higher the risk.....But could 5i give me three names other than the two mentioned above that you think are interesting at 14% or better and three you find interesting above 18% ..... Accompanied by a brief comment on the risks ........ I used the word " interesting " as opposed to " what 5i likes " to reflect the associated risks of high yield investing ......Thanks for your terrific service .....

5i Research Answer:

14%+ QQQI; income is all return on capital. Tech exposure. One of the best high yield ETFs in our view. 

XYLD (just under 14%); larger companies should reduce risk. But typical equity risks will apply. 

CDAY: new, but offers Canadian exposure and bi-weekly payments ($135M in assets currently). 

 

18%+: YMAX; super high volatile stocks increases option premiums. Good diversity of holdings. Weekly income is interesting. BTCI; crypto volatility adds yield but of course volatility works both ways. 

RDTY: one to watch (too small right now). We like small caps and taking advantage of investors who buy 0DTE options makes sense to us (the ETF sells these). 

GIAX: globally diversified and fairly decent sector diversity

SLVO : silver exposure, no withholding tax taken at source.
