Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,

Would a Canadian holding this ETF inside an RRSP be subject to extra taxes because of MLPs?

TIA!

Q: Subject: Follow-Up on Monthly Dividend ETF Recommendations

Hi 5i team,

Thank you for your thoughtful response to my question regarding safer monthly income alternatives to Whitecap Resources. I understand the appeal of Canadian ETFs, especially in registered accounts where avoiding the 15% U.S. withholding tax is beneficial.

That said, I was wondering are there any U.S.-listed ETFs that you would feel comfortable recommending which offer monthly dividends, strong diversification, and a yield comparable to or better than Whitecap’s, while maintaining a reasonable level of safety and consistency?

I’d be open to covered call or enhanced income strategies as long as the risk profile isn’t excessive. Would appreciate your perspective on whether there are any U.S. options worth considering despite the tax implication.

Thanks again,

Q: Good evening!
Looking to add to my portfolio, and these are all high dividend payers. Could you rank them with regard to safety (primarily preservation of capital with low chance of potential problems on any visible horizon), and then also rank them from best grower to worst grower? Please take credits you think are fair.
Thanks! Paul K

Q: I bought this stock about 3 years ago at $2.85 and today it is about $3. I choose to have my dividends reinvested so today have an additional 300 shares but my Adjusted Cost Base has also gone up accordingly. I am ahead very little considering the length of time invested. Do you have any suggestions on income vs growth? Am I better to continue this dividend reinvestment or just sell the stock and move on, or just move to cash dividends? Thank you.

Q: Hi folks

Much thanks

Q: Can you recommend some high paying US stocks or ETF's to hold in my Rif account. Please include some that distribute monthly payments if possible. I am mostly interested in income, not capital gains seeing most of my US investments are down. Thanks, James

Q: Good day...if one was to invest in div in a cash account is the only concern the 15% hold back on the U.S. dividend...the large dividend at a reasonable fee is attracting me along with the holdings that are in the sectors that are out of favor...could you please give your opinion on this for a 10% exposure in my portfolio...Gene

Q: What are some high yield ETFs that sell in US dollars?
