Stock price when the opinion was issued
A covered call ETF that's done very well because it holds tech. Nothing wrong with that, but remember that the covered call acts as an underlying drag on the underlying stocks. If he's investing in higher-risk including tech, he doesn't want covered calls, but likes them on dividend payers and banks. As for tech, he expects an earnings problem in the next few months.
In a good space that favours growth over value, and the holdings in this one would be along those lines. You get the mega-caps as well as some of the smaller names, diversified across areas in the tech landscape. Good holding.
Anytime you hold growth, you're going to see some swings. Must consider your timeframe and what amount of volatility you're comfortable with. If you bought today and didn't look at it for 6-7 months, he'd be really surprised if you didn't see some upside.
Dominated by core US large caps (top 20 market cap), plus covered call strategy. Doesn't see any issues with the component stocks, future looks great. The more income you take, the more you limit the upside. MER is 85 bps, higher because of the options strategy. Small position only.
