Q: What is your opinion on this etf? I don't expect it to do well in a downturn (when it hits again), but the long term track record looks good.

Q: Below is the longer term performance of HQU for 1,3,6month and 1,3,5,10 year periods, along with the Fund Quartile rating. With this longer term return, why wouldn't I just use this fund as my only proxy for NASDAQ listed stocks? The same with SSO for SPY listed stocks? Seems like an easy was to outperform (and under) the markets.

Your thoughts please, pros and cons.

+7.70% +25.81% +26.31% +79.22% +39.24% +27.01% +30.14%

Q: Hello Peter
15% of my total portfolio are HQU shares. 18% of them are in non registered acct. and rest 82% are in TFSA & RRIF's accts. I am down on them 27%.
My question is: because most of my HQU shares are in registered accts. there is no tax losses on them, what would you do in this situation ,sell all and wait 30 days for repurchase if they go down or hold on to them for next couple of years.
thanks Andrew
