BUY

Low trading volume. It comes down to trading costs. If big enough then go for direct stocks or if you are holding for a long time. ZEB-T is only the 6 main banks here in Canada. CEW hold 5 more. If you old the TSX-60 then you may be doubling up on some without knowing it.

COMMENT

Equal Weight Bank & Lifeco ETF. Doesn't like to hold life insurance companies right now.

BUY

The 6 larger banks. He would look at it if it is optionable.

COMMENT

Prefers iShares Cdn Financials ETF (XFM-T) to this one as it is a little more diversified. This one is more of an equal weight product so it has 10 stocks whereas the ishares has more names and is not equal weighted.

BUY

ETF that includes 6 banks and 4 lifecos.

COMMENT

Equal weighted bank and lifecos. You could also look at the iUnits S&P Financial Index (XFN-T). They're going to give you a very similar exposure. If you like financials this is a good way to play them. Preferred shares might be a better way to pay the banks in the short-term.

BUY

Gives exposure to the 6 large banks and the 4 lifecos on an equal weighted basis. (His company issues this ETF.)
