Q: I'm looking for a global all equity value fund. Since the majority of the investments are outside of Canada am I correct in assuming that they cannot take advantage of dividend tax credits? I was considering ZEQT and XEQT but they are classified as growth funds.

Q: Thank you for answering my question on Value ETFs. on February 9th. You had mentioned DFIV, IVLU and VBR in your selection but didn't include VVL.
I was wondering if this omission of VVL was intentional with some reason behind it or just a slip from your meory.
Few months ago to one of questions, you had mentioned that VVL has done well because it included banks. Do you think US banks still a value play?
Thanks in advance.

Q: Dear 5i Team,
Thank you for your customary clear cut answers to my earlier questions on Energy sector. Your cautious approach has tempered my enthusiastic embrace of energy stocks and overweighting them in my portfolio.
Which in turn leads me to ask this question:
Which sector at this time you see having positive momentum? How to play that sector via an ETF? I am looking at 1 to 2 years. Should I just buy an ETF like VMO or its equivalent and forget about fine tuning? If possible please suggest alternatives to VMO. (See below!)
Also along the same lines, do you see a sector rotation, from momentum to value? (VVL) I see the 1 yr return on VVL 49% is better than VMO's (32.5% )! Am I missing something here? I thought the last year was a banner year for the momentum stocks.
Thanks in advance.

ProShares S&P 500 Ex-Technology ETF (SPXT)
Q: Hi Peter and team,
I'm overweight tech and underweight the US and international by a lot.
I hold XAW at roughly 20% in my RRSP.
Currently have 13k in cash and will have another 15k once PEO shares get tendered in a LIRA account.
Can you recommend an ETF or two that can address both my problems. One that has zero to very minimal tech exposure, no canadian exposure. Preferably trading on the TSX.
Thanks,
Rino
Q: This is about Value play through ETFs.
Two questions. Assuming that Value as opposed to growth is going to get traction in 2021.
1. Small cap value or Large cap value going forward.
2. Which ones from my picks above you think are worth considering. Any favourites?
Thanks
Q: My portfolio is moderately balanced, and do not include internet or technological Cdn values ( as SHOP,CSU,OTEX,BB,KXS,ENGH,LSPD,etc…),or equivalent US stocks. The main reason are that : 1) I feel that prices and ratios are very high 2) My objective is a ” safe mix” of revenues and growth 3) It seems impossible to predict wich Cies will be the “winners” in the future in this new trend 4) I tend to keep stocks and ETF for long term (not too much surveillance needed ) .Do you have any suggestion (stock or ETF) ,and general point of view ? many thanks

We are hearing a lot of chatter about the switch to Value stocks; away from growth stocks.
What are your favourite Value stocks ETFs in Canada and the US. Both for small caps and large caps.
Q: Hi 5i team,
The market is seeing a rotation from tech into more value with Dow Jones going up and NASDQ dropping. To capture this sector rotation, which Canadian traded ETFs would you recommend for US companies? Would it be Dow Jones focused ETFs or value focused ETFs that will see the most gain in the next 12 months?
Please list your top picks for each. Thanks.
