Q: What percentage would you put into each of ZWA (hedged) and ZWH (unhedged), for long term, as a rule of thumb, without knowing the rest of one's portfolio, but figure it's a reasonable percentage of one's U.S. component. Thanks for your advice.

Q: As an additional comparison to my question of jan.11 re: xtr and zmi do you feel plv would be a better long term hold with more upside potential considering the payout is much more in line with a sustainable payout with maybe not having to rely on roc to meet the higher payout s of the xtr and zmi ? Also would consider any of these to be overvalued and or should an investor wait out a market correction? Thank you kindly Larry

Thanks
