Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: SPHQ ETF seems to have a good long term total return performance compared to SPY. When I looked in more detail it looks like Invesco changed the index 3 times since it's December 6, 2005 inception date. I'm trying to validate the active strategy but it's seems difficult to make any assumptions. Is it common for ETF providers to change underlying indexes? I looked at other Invesco ETF's and it seems like they in particular do it for some of there other ETF's as well. I would appreciate your thoughts.

Q: Hello 5i,
Post if you like.
As per Kim's question today on drawdown of RRSP and other retirement holdings, there are a few things I have found helpful. Rita Silvan's article in MoneySaver Sept/24 "Boomer Candy" had some great points. Daryl Diamond's book Your Retirement Income Blueprint is worth the read. Finally a fiduciary planner/ tax plan.
Good luck.
Jeremy

Q: HI Team,
I was wanting your updated take on TTD. I have held it for a long time in my tfsa and am up nicely on it. Currently it's touched near it's 2021 high. Is it still among your favorite growth companies and worthy of continuing holding in a tfsa for the next 5 years? Do you see big growth from the company continuing going forward? IF not; please suggest a couple names in which you would confidently see as outperforming TTD over the next few years in which I would replace it with.

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: I'm considering buying HDIV ETF. On the ETF website it shows a 2023 total distribution of $1.974 and a ROC (return of capitol) of $ 1.66201 . After watching a video of ROC sometimes the ROC is not a reduction of NAV but just for tax purposes. And in some instances it is actually a return of your own capital and your NAV is reduced. Can you give some clarity on ROC. And how to determine if an ETF in my investment account has dropped in value from return of my own capital or loss of the underlying securities of ETF? My personal situation all my investment accounts are RRSP and TSFSA.

Thanks, Brian.

Q: Can you expand on the recent question on WELL. How good a company is it for a growth investor? It recently traded up to $5 but has back off to around $4.40. Is this a good point to buy? Where do you see it over the next 12 months? What are the catalysts that define company performance? It has been recommended by 5i, how strong is this conviction?
