Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Index ETF (EQL $40.47)
Q: Good morning. I currently own the above 4 ETFs in the following shares of my portfolio:
ZDI: 9.56%
The combination of ZDY, EQL and EQLI: 15.9%
I have some other US positions while ZDI is currently my only ex North American position.
ZDI has been performing very well YTD with +13% total return (per my purchase cost) while The US EYFs are lower than 0% total returns.
Do you currently see the European momentum building or continuing ? And if so woul it be worth it to flip some of the US ETFs over to ZDI or any other ex-North America ETF ? THank you.

Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Index ETF (EQL $40.47)
Q: Good Morning
I would like to increase my US position in my RRSP. I currently cover this US exposure through VBAL(core position) VFV approx 4.5%, Legacy positions of ZLU and ZWH approx, 3%, totaling approx. 31% US. My thoughts were to replace ZLU/ZWH and increase VFV and add EQL to gain broader exposure to US market. Would this give me a good exposure without over duplication? I am retired and 65 and would like a balanced plus approach. Your thoughts or other ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Mike

Direxion Nasdaq-100 Equal Weighted Index Shares (QQQE $103.50)
Q: Hi 5i Team,
Based on the webinar that Chris presented it appears that the equal-weight S&P 500 has lagged compared to the market-weight S&P 500. Based on this I suspect you would recommend having some exposure to the equal-weight S&P 500? If so, what would be a good ETF that you would recommend or are there any individual stocks within the equal-weight S&P 500 that you think might have a bit more upside than the average?
Thanks as always,
Jon

Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Index ETF (EQL.F $33.21)
Q: Can you recommend a hedged ETF that follows the S&P 500, but not with the Magnificent 7 having a lot of weight, as I feel these are overbought? I really like ZUE but it has too much Magnificent 7. Looking for 10% appreciation first year including both capital appreciation and dividends.
Q: Hi 5i Team,
Is there an ETF equivalent of RSP (S&P equal weight) that trades in Canada? If, not can you suggest a best alternative?

Q: If you had new money to invest, would you put it into an equal weighted S&P 500 ETF or a cap weighted one? Can you recommend an equal weighted S&P 500 ETF that trades in CAD?

Topicus.com Inc. (TOI $141.33)
Q: Hello,
The announcement today of Topicus's CEO taking on additional roles have any longer term impact? Also, the shares are not moving much after the results. What is your overall view? You had recommended RSP as the symbol for equal weight ETF tracking 500 companies in US (to diversify from SPY which has lots of tech exposure). Is there a cdn equivalent for RSP. i cannot seem to find one. thanks very much

Q: Is there an ETF that provides equal weight coverage of the TSX similar to what EQL does for the S&P 500?
I would like to increase my ETF holdings providing a broad coverage of the Cdn market vs individual stocks. I already have a heavy weighting in individual financial stocks and most TSX ETFs would simply further skew my overall balance.

Q: Hi Guys
It seems during the last year that the Mag7 have really had their time in the sun. I am wondering if there might be some rotation out of these names. Wondering where you thought the best returns would be over the next few years in a S&P 500 type ETF:
1) XSP - iShares Core S&P 500 Index ETF
2) An Equal Weight S&P 500 Index like Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Index ETF, 3) or or something like the Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF.
What ETF would you think would do the best
Thanks
Stuart

Q: I am looking to add exposure to the US market in my TFSA. I currently own ZSP and ZNQ and would like to add an ETF listed on the Cdn exchange that would balance my exposure to the Mag 7. I have seen you recommend EQL which I am considering however is there another ETF that would broaden my exposure beyond the S&P 500. Perhaps to include some mid and small cap stocks?
Also would you expect that mid and small caps will outperform given where we are in the market cycle?

Q: I have enough exposure to the magnificent 7 and feel they might tread water this year . Please recommend an equal weight etf on the S&P. Canadian $ or hedged preferred.

Q: Hello, Would you please provide your comments on EQL as a safety play (reduce MAG7 weight) to VFV? I hold a very oversized position between VFV & VOO and am looking for your recommendation for an equal weight in CA$. Could you also provide a US$ version that you would recommend?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Q: I am considering making an investment in this ETF. I understand that it basically follows the returns of the S & P 500 and is equally weighted. Any information you may have on this ETF would be appreciated. Do you consider it a good investment. I look forward to your timely comments. Thank You.
Q: Could you please recommend a couple of equal weight S&P 500 ETF's with low MER's, thank you. Please note if there is any hidden fees outside the MER.
