Q: Question on increasing my copper exposure:

I already own some TECK.B, but concerned about the (approx.) 26X PE ratio. Does this concern you?

I'm considering COPX. Yes, comparing an ETF to a stock is a bit apples / oranges. If I believe that International stocks in general will outperform going forward, is this a good choice. I do realize it does have some North American holdings - including TECK.B itself - but the aggregate PE appears to be better value compared just TECK.B.

Perhaps selling TECK.B and just holding all of COPX is a better choice despite the (I think) 0.65 MER. Your thoughts and comments on all this ?

Q: COPP.TO (Global X Canada) COPP (Sprott ETF in USA) COPX (Horizon Global X USA) - Do you have any preference for a Canadian resident who wants to invest in a diversified copper ETF? Do you have an alternative suggestion to these ones? Both the COPP (Sprott US) and COPX (Horizon US) are treated as US situ property with respect to Estate taxes.

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor. Reading lots about supply chain shortages (semi-conductors, copper, steel, etc). How are we best to play this?

Should we consider selecting companies within specific industries (Copper Mountain or Teck comes to mind) or should we go the ETF route (via ZMT or another suggestion via 5iR)?

A dividend would be a bonus. BTW, in the materials sector I already own NTR.

Please list some companies that I can research.

Please list some ETFs that I can research.

Thanks...Steve
