Q: Hi,

I have been trying the understand the pros and cons of covered calls and options ETFs by looking at previous questions on the subject. I spent considerable time on the matter and I am more confused than ever.

Would you be kind enough to summarize your views on the matter and, if you are really positive about it, please provide a list of the best ETFs suitable for a strong growth investor.

Gratefully,

Jacques IDS

Q: Hello, back on June 2nd in a response to a question on NFG, 5i said "we would like to see its price rise above $3 to signal a potential reversal in its price trend." NFG is $3.45 at the time I wrote this. Do you think the reversal in the price trend is underway? Is there an underlying driver behind this reversal other than the price of gold continuing to go up?
