| DON'T BUY | 15.480 | Michael Bowman | Covered Calls seems to be the flavour of the day. There are Covered Calls on any index you want because that is what everybody wants these days. In reality, Covered Calls work extremely well in markets that are trendless. Doesn’t believe these Covered Calls will be able to maintain their dividend. See's volatile decreasing in the market. He would recommend a basket of dividend paying stocks such as iShares International Fundamental ETF (CIE-T) and iShares BRIC ETF (CBQ-T). | 2012-04-30 | |
| Comment | 15.490 | John DeGoey | Markets for the past 75 days or so have been moving sideways. If you don't believe there is a great deal of direction going forward, utilities are good way of a) minimizing volatility and b) when you lay a covered call strategy on top of that, you minimize volatility even further. This is one of the most conservative ETF's you can get. | 2012-04-02 | |
| BUY | 15.390 | John Hood | Covered Call Utilities ETF. Likes this one. What they do is right Calls against individual stocks, not against the index. He uses it for some of his smaller accounts where he can't adequately diversify among 3 or 4 different covered individual bank stocks. You have to realize that if the yield is 8%, that is not what you are going to get. | 2012-02-03 | |
| DON'T BUY | 15.030 | Paul Gardner, CFA | Covered Call Utilities ETF. Covered Call strategy is very popular these days but is getting crowded. Basically it says that if the market trades sideways and with all the volatility in the market, can you not make money off that volatility. To do this they go long the stock but write covered calls against it. You underperform if the market goes really down or goes really up. Over the next 2-3 years we should see a better equity market. | 2011-12-05 |
