| DON'T BUY | 7.160 | Vikash Jain, CFA | Why is this ETF down since it is supposed to be strong during volatile times? He would disagree that it is supposed to be strong in volatile times, but just the opposite. This is a covered call ETF that writes Call Options on its underlying securities. While in the normal course while markets are steadily rising this would add benefit to your portfolio. | 2012-05-22 | |
| Comment | 7.750 | Mike S. Newton, CIM FCSI | Thinks this is the TSX with a covered call strategy against it. There tends to be a slow and steady drag on the future capital appreciation but you are getting paid a nice dividend yield in the meantime. If you are out rightly bullish on the market, access the underlying market on its own. | 2012-04-03 | |
| WEAK BUY | 7.880 | Mike S. Newton, CIM FCSI | Covered calls. Don’t be too heavily weighted for the long run. | 2012-03-08 | |
| Comment | 8.010 | John DeGoey | Enhanced Income Equity ETF. Equal weighted 30 largest Canadian stocks. Like the market, it has dropped but is now coming back. Enhancement of the income is the covered call strategy. Gives you market like-return with less than market volatility and less down when things go down but less up when things go up. | 2012-02-27 | |
| BUY | 8.100 | John DeGoey | Enhanced Income Equity ETF. Because of their covered calls, they have done a fairly good job of protecting and having a fairly good income stream on a monthly basis. | 2011-11-09 | |
| TOP PICK | 7.850 | John DeGoey | Enhanced Income Equity ETF. A defensive of play because it uses the covered call strategy. It can go down but is equal weighted with 30 of the largest companies in Canada so is broadly diversified. Solid income. | 2011-10-05 | |
| BUY | 8.510 | John Hood | Enhanced Income Equity ETF. Likes this one. Similar to BMO’s Covered Call Cdn Banks ETF (ZWB-T) and is primarily based on the financials. Always keep in mind that the quoted yield you see on any of these covered call products are very much dependent on the underlying security. | 2011-09-16 | |
| BUY | 9.040 | John Hood | Enhanced Income Equity ETF. This one is predicated on the TSX 30. One of the few that he likes. | 2011-07-29 | |
| Comment | 9.400 | Prakash Hariharan | Enhanced Income Equity ETF. Volatility as an asset class is a very good place to be as opposed to buying fixed income securities. Covered call strategy is a good place to be. | 2011-06-29 | |
| Comment | 9.340 | Richard Croft | Enhanced Income Equity ETF. This is a covered writing fund and is not on a specific sector and is on 30 big companies in the TSX 60. Option premiums that are being generated is being paid out as a distribution. You have to believe that the manager has the capability of rolling the positions to offset some of the risks. | 2011-06-24 |
