Investment Q&A

Q: Hi
I'm interested in investing in etfs with an interest rate between 4 - 6% with some potential for Capital gains.
Low risk
Your recommendations please

Q: Good Afternoon. I'm still searching for an international etf that suits my needs, that being a 65 y/o retiree who is more concerned with income, albeit with some growth. Most I have looked at have relatively low yields, around 2% or so. Is there such a thing as a high yield international etf? Are there any that use covered calls? Would also prefer hedged to CAD. Cheers.

Q: Hello 5i,
Retired investor requiring sustainable income.
I currently hold ZWG as a large part of my International holdings, however it is largely U.S. and I am currently overweight U.S. by 10% according to my P.A. analysis.
I require the higher income that the C.C. ETF's bring to the table and I was considering switching from ZWG to EMCC:CA (Global X MSCI Emerging Markets C.C. ETF), either in whole or in part. Currently I have no Emerging Market coverage to speak of.
I do have some other Global X products and have no issues with them, but I would like your expert opinion on my proposed switch. Are there any "red flags" that I should be aware of? Would there be other options that you could recommend that you would be far more comfortable with?
Many thanks for any clarity you can provide!!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Hi can you name some lower risk covered call ETF's in Canada and USA that you would recommend that offer both income and growth and can be held over the long term vs. owning stocks and index funds.

Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i
Thanks for all your great work, as always.
What would be your recommendation for a covered call international etf . I am looking for income and diversifying to outside of North America. I would appreciate a couple in CAD and a couple in USD if possible.
Thanks!

Q: hello 5i:
I'm looking for an ETF with attributes similar to ZWH, but with more an international flavour, so not purely a US focus. Suggestions?
thanks

Q: Plz suggest three high-dividend paying GLOBAL etfs based in Canada but excluding Canadian companies.

Thx

Q: Could I please have your comments on this BMO ETF, it fairly new and states a 6.66 dividend payout, what risks are there , is the income sustainable, I am thinking about using it for income in a RRIF, would my principle be maintained?

Thank-you
