Q: Hi Team, I'm a 65 yr old dividend investor and I have been investigating BMO Covered Call ETF (ZWT) and Hamilton's QMAX.
The only pure holding I have in Technology right now is DCBO (for growth) with <1% holding and I'm thinking of selling that and dumping into either of the above.
I'm really intrigued with QMAX yield of ~ 12% and MER of .65% compared to ZWT with a yield of ~3.57% and higher MER of .71%.
I understand that both could be very volatile (ZWT -30.9% in 2022 and up 64.5% in 2023). QMAX isn't a year old yet so no stats but I assume will be comparable?
Anyway, looking for your thoughts on which is better, is QMAX yield of 11.9% (too good to be true)? With QMAX, AUM of $374,505,060 some people like it? Thanks Bill

Q: Hi, I am considering buying the dip into some covered-call tech funds. I was looking at a roughly equal investment in ZWT and QQCL. I'm aware of the limited upside potential of these funds but am buying for income with some capital gain (ZWT). I'd appreciate your thoughts on the possible pitfalls inherent in these CC funds. Thanks.

Q: Further to previous questions, I have ZWT as a Tech ETF, and has done well, but things like SMCIs pop last week would have definitely not been fully realized. Is there a solid Canadian listed Tech ETF for putting in my TFSA? I would like to avoid tax things if it pays a dividend. US listed options as well, preferably with negligible dividends.


Can you suggest a few options for each market, with low fees and a good management team? and maybe a specialized Data center ETF?

Thanks

James
