Q: Hello,
GEQT vs XEQT vs VEQT vs FEQT, which one is the better buy in the all in one all equity ETFs category and why?
The sector allocations of WSRI and WSRD are quite different than the typical ETFs, with top 3 sectors being consumers goods, healthcare, consumers services. Do you think these sectors will provide some good returns compare to high technology focus ETFs?
Thanks.
Thanks.

5i Research Answer:
We think XEQT is the best buy out of he options stated. It is significantly the largest, has the lowest expense ratio and the best performance over the long-term. VEQT is a close second due to similar performance to XEQT, however it is smaller and charges a slightly higher fee.
Healthcare could provide similar returns to technology with significant growth driven by weight loss drugs. Consumer good and services likely have less growth upside compared to tech but they will also be less volatile. In a strong tech market, the returns of these ETFs will likely underperform, but in a tech downturn the opposite is more likely. The Socially Responsible focus of these ETFs will also play a role in their holdings and performance.
