Q: Hello 5i Team

1 - HBB

Global X's webpage for Global X Canadian Select Universe Bond Index Corporate Class ETF (HBB) lists the following fees:

Management Fee - 0.09 % + applicable sales tax
Management Expense Ratio - 0.10 %
Trading Expense Ratio - 0.15 %
Swap Fee - No more than 0.15 %

Therefore are the maximum total fees that I would pay for HBB as follows:

Management Expense Ratio + Trading Expense Ratio + Swap Fee

0.10 % + 0.15 % + 0.15 % = 0.40 %

2 - HSAV

As HSAV is also a corporate class fund why would Global X not list a swap fee for HSAV?

Thanks

Q: Would you say selling VAB and buying HBB would be a superficial loss in CRA's eyes? Or are they different enough? They do track different benchmarks (by title, at least).

Q: For tax reasons, I want to buy some ETFs or stocks in my unregistered account, that pay little or no dividends. Which of the Horizon's total return ETFs would you recommend at this time? HSAV seems to be really unstable and I am concerned it could be a money loser in the short term. I read in the G & M that the manager of Langsford Wealth Counsel in Oakville has been buying HXDM with better valuation than the US. Thanks!
