WATCH
Basket of dividend payers in Canada and the US. Just under 30% energy names. Pretty high yield, but believes some of that is ROC (so the yield is a bit misleading). As long as the underlying stocks do well, shouldn't see an erosion of capital. But the wild card to watch for is if there's a decline in the market.
Well managed, great track record.

COMMENT
Not a fan of closed fund since the underlying securities will deviate from the net asset value of the fund. There are big dislocations. Underlying holdings are good quality companies. On a weighted basis, the yield is 3%, but the fund is paying 8%. This comes from the capital gains. It is not pure yield.

COMMENT
Pays an 11% dividend yield. How are they paying that? They probably hold a lot of Canadian infrastructure but those stocks pay only 3-4%. The US component is also dragging down that yield. There's a mismatch here in holdings vs. the 11% yield. The total return will probably be 5-7%, but the high yield will limit share performance. This is a warning. Look at their top holdings and see how you feel about that.

It's a preferred share ETF. It provides income. It's a hybrid between a stock and a bond. This gives you a good position in a Canadian taxable account.
