Q: On 9 Jan 2023, Horizons ETF issued a press release with the following comments on HSUV.U:
“suspension will help manage potential tax implications and ensure that HSUV.U can continue to reinvest its distributions”
“Horizons ETFs is strongly discouraging investors from purchasing shares of HSUV.U”
I was wondering what the risk was for: a) managing potential tax implications, and b) the inability to reinvest its distributions. The other point discouraging investors from purchasing shares was new to me and I’d be grateful for your views.
Also, in the not so remote possibility that the growing US Govt debt finally produced the anticipated “big bang” (ie. default, no new ceiling, … what else?), what would you expect to see just prior to the explosive event? If you were retired and had 65% of your nest egg presently in money market funds (100% safe), what number (% safe) would you apply to moving the funds to HSUV.U?
Your deep and practical insights into how the market reacts continue to surprise and impress me. I have learned so much since my first subscription to 5i and can simply offer a big thank you. And, of course, keep trying to do my own financing homework !
