Q: I will probably be purchasing ZIN shortly. Regarding the quarterly dividend, does it matter when I buy ZIN? I know the Ex div date is Dec 27, so I need to buy it before that, so it settles prior to or on Dec 26. And theoretically in an efficient market, the price of ZIN will drop the amount of the dividend ($0.13) on that date. What's your experience...does the ETF share price drop actually resemble the dividend amount?

Thanks...Steve

Q: Would zlh be a fairly safe and effective investment for a 3 to 4 year holding? I need some more US exposure and would like to preserve my capital with some upside potential. Are their other low volatility US etf that you would prefer? Thank you.

Q: Good day 5i.
The only US position I now hold in my RRSP is ZWH.
I like this ETF, just leave it alone and let it spit money out.
I'm looking for another US ETF that will fit nicely with ZWH and t pays monthly. The new ETF position would be half the size of ZWH if that helps.

Thanks for you help.

Q: I would like more details on PHYS that was discussed briefly today. Apparently there is no dividend, EPS is $220, and Book value is $10.95. Since there is no dividend, is the EPS used to purchase more gold? Are there any MER or storage fees? How does it differ from PHYS.U (Sprott PHysical Gold Trust transferable redeemable units? Where can I find more details on those shares?

Q: I am trying to quantify the new political risk owning this name. With the transaction for GBT being in Brazilian Reals I expect most of its revenue is in Brazil, however your report mentions Argentina and Chile as potentially unstable and there is a total of 10 Latin countries it operates in.
Can you break down the revenue sources for GBT by country please?
