Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: if one is looking to preserve capital but rely on dividends in a RRIF does it make sense to use the BMO covered call group for diversification and reduced volatility. I recognize the lag on upside. But it should also help in a down market? I would also be diversified in equities in my TFSA and cash accounts. Just trying to smooth the market out. Thoughts?

Thanks Dave

Q: I'm a 65 year old div investor with a defined pension. I'm investigating the BMO covered Call Health Care ETF (ZWHC) as a way to play the Health Care Sector as there is not much available in Cdn. I have a question on the cost of this ETF. The fact sheet states Max annual management fee of .65% and then it says an MER of .73%.
Do I add the two % up to equal 1.38% or would I just pay the MER of .73%?
I hold WELL (hoping for growth) but have been waiting quite awhile and nothing much seems to happen. I'm down (-26%). Its been good if you bought lately but if you bought back during COVID, not so much.
I know you still recommend it so should I hope for the best and wait awhile longer (hope not being much of an investment strategy) or move on? VHI seems to be moving better? Appreciate your thoughts.
