Q: Currently hold VYM in my US$ RRIF. I note that SDIV has a much higher dividend yield, is that because of it's global exposure? Is the tax treatment the same for both inside the RRIF?

Q: Hello 5i team,
I have 500k in US $'s to invest and my RSP and TFSA are both maxed out. My plan is to use this money to primarily generate income through US ETF's and US dividend stocks. With my RSP maxed out is there another strategy to avoid the 15% withholding tax, besides using the US $'s to buy CDN income producing investments. And could you please provide a few ETF's in US $'s that have a focus on income/high yielding.
Thank you,
Glen

Q: Consider the following ETF portfolio and associated weightings:
ZSP 20%, ZWH 5%, ZDV, 5%, SDIV 5%, BOTZ 5%, XT 5%, DGRC 20%, ZRE 5%, ZDH 5%, VEE 5%, VAB 10%, XSB 10%, TCSB 5%
The question has to do with SDIV. Given poor performance of SDIV, I am contemplating switching SDIV to PSI (Invesco Dynamic Semiconductors ETF); would 5i support this move? Or would you rather I add to one of my existing ETF positions, or can you recommend another ETF altogether?
Thank you.

Q: What do you think of SDIV as an income and diversity vehicle?
