Q: Hello 5i team,
I appreciate your response to my question regarding "what to do in view of an impending recession".
Less equity and more fixed income would indeed make sense. I suppose that I could start with the holdings in the Income portfolio; but, of the balanced equity portfolio, which would you consider as "aggressive" and which would you consider as "more defensive".
Thanks,
Antoine

Q: I am retired living on dividend income. I am interested in ZWU to increase my dividend income with its yield of 6.30%.
However, I noticed that it's cash distribution has been decreasing since Jan 2017. How is its cash distribution determined? With rising interest rates, will it's cash distribution continue to decrease? What income etf yielding over 4.5% would you recommend in this market? What percent position would you recommend for income ETFs?
