Q: Morning,

I have a 2/3 position in ZWU and like it for the 3 sector exposure, covered call and high yield with DRIP. Would now be a good time to add the other 1/3 or wait until after the summer? What are your thoughts on it's exposure and stability for a long term hold?

Thanks!

Craig

Q: I rarely ask a question so this is more a general question. ENB today is down 1% in Toronto on above average volume and up 1% in NY on below average volume. I would expect this to sort itself out over the day but I would like your opinion on why? I could I guess transfer my ENB.TO to my US account and get a 2% pop.
Thanks for the great service.

Q: I currently have a 1.3% holding in KWH.UN and I am wondering if I should continue to hold it in my income portion. On June 25th, in response to Eric you were "fine" with adding then on June 28th, in response to Stan, your advice was not to add. This seems a significant change in a short period of time.

Since there has been no news and the dividend was recently raised is it fair to say the price momentum has changed your mind or has the investment thesis changed?


Many thanks.

Mike

Q: Hi,
I'm rebalancing my portfolio and I am underweight in US equities. Based on current market conditions and high valuations in the US markets I am reluctant to purchase US equities. My thought is to purchase an ETF like XHU that pays a decent dividend. In the case of a market correction I would have the dividend. Your thoughts on this strategy.
