| BUY | 12.250 | Vikash Jain, CFA | Wants to generate a monthly cash income. Would this be a good idea over mutual funds? Over mutual funds, you are getting a bargain. As far as what it is actually holding is concerned it is a solid ETF. | 2012-05-22 | |
| BUY | 12.400 | John Hood | Is a basket of a whole bunch of different income products. 44% is equity, the rest is bonds. | 2012-03-09 | |
| HOLD | 12.140 | John Hood | With the tax changes, it will become and orphaned fund. It will likely get rolled up into the XRE real estate find. | 2010-10-22 | |
| Comment | 11.710 | Terry Shaunessy | S&P/TSX Income Trust ETF. A pretty good security this year but they changed the mandate so that it became an income bearing ETF and he sold his holdings. | 2010-09-14 | |
| Comment | 11.340 | Mike S. Newton, CIM FCSI | S&P/TSX Income Trust ETF. What will happen to it with conversions? This will definitely disappear as of January 2011 but Blackrock is having a meeting to get it in position so it is an ongoing concern. | 2010-07-12 | |
| DON'T BUY | 11.200 | John Hood | A lot of companies in this ETF are converting back to corporations. They already have the XRE, based on REITs, so he thinks they will amalgamate or something. The XTR will wither away. He doesn’t own because he uses covered calls for income. | 2010-06-08 | |
| Comment | 11.380 | Jeff Black | S&P/TSX Income Trust ETF. What will likely happen to the price and payout once the non-REIT trusts convert? Expected dividend yield will be reduced but if it ends up in a dividend form there are some tax advantages. Yield of about 7%. Weighting is very skewed to energy. | 2010-01-14 | |
| Comment | 8.630 | Som Seif | Income trusts ETF. Yield of over 17.5%. Heavily weighted to energy and natural gas market. With energy dropping he could see many of the trusts cutting distributions. Great way to play income trusts but with the move to incorporation, yields are probably not sustainable. | 2008-12-12 | |
| BUY | 14.360 | Som Seif | Income Trusts. A nice way to get a broader portfolio of income trusts. Off since June and July mainly because it is 70% weighted to energy trusts. Interest rate sensitive. | 2008-08-19 | |
| WEAK BUY | 13.280 | Robert Lauzon | Gives you good diversification in income trusts, but too heavily weighted in royalty trusts for his liking. | 2006-11-24 | |
| DON'T BUY | 13.950 | John Zechner | There has been a pullback in the price of income trusts. Looking at the bond market, people are very hungry for yield. With the i-shares, you're getting a disproportionate share in oil/gas right now which he is not comfortable with. | 2006-09-27 | |
| BUY | 15.430 | Bruce Campbell | Not a bad way for an individual investor to get distributions from a whole bunch of different names. Lowers your risk. | 2006-07-05 | |
| BUY | 15.190 | Richard Croft | A low-cost index product based on the capped income trust index product in Canada. If you like income trusts, it's a great place to be. | 2006-05-18 |
