Q: My question is regarding this specific ETF, ZJG. As an Index ETF it appears to be held back by the non-performers in the Index. Which 10 (or so) equities from ZJG would you recommend for an equal weight (or other weight) DYI ETF that could provide better results, assuming my assumptions are correct?
Thanks for your reply.

Q: I currently have Teck and have enjoyed the big run up this year though I am still down 10% as I bought in 2014. I know you are concerned about their debt so my question is would you continue to hold it? If not, can you recommend a similar stock (that pays > 1% dividend) to replace it.
Thanks for your excellent advice.

Q: Hello Team 5i, I know this is a High Risk ETF, but this the start of the Seasonal Upleg for Gold. Not without volatility, but worth applying a 2.5% of my Portfolio Value? I suspect the Upside is greater than the Downside. As always, I value your thoughts!

Thanks. Austin
