Q: Two part question:

What are the major differences between these two covered call utilities etf's? Wondering why/how UMAX has ~2X dividend yield?

Would it be possible to suggest equivalent covered call etf(s) for US market?

Thank you.

Q: Do any of the utilities held in these ETF’s offer the same kind of energy power support for the mega computers running AI applications as something like VRT in the US?

If not are there any Canadian companies that do so and would be an attractive investment in this area?
