This summary was created by AI, based on 3 opinions in the last 12 months.

The iShares S&P/TSX 60 Index ETF (XIU) is highly regarded as a robust long-term investment, particularly acknowledged for its ability to defer taxable gains. It tracks the TSX 60 index, which constitutes a significant portion of the Canadian market, making it a solid choice for investors looking for exposure to major sectors such as energy and banking. While opinions suggest that XIU and other ETFs like XIC often move in tandem, investors should consider their risk tolerance related to the smaller companies and commodities that make up the remaining 20% of the broader market. With the Canadian market showing resilience and outperforming the US market recently, there is a growing sentiment that XIU could remain favorable for many years. Overall, experts express optimism about international markets, positioning XIU as a viable option for those seeking stability in their investment portfolio.

Consensus

Favorable

Valuation

Fair Value

Similar

XIC

BUY

Is a market-leading product. The biggest ETF in Canada. He would personally rather have more small caps. The difference in risk is nominal but the expected return is 1-2% higher. E.g. XIC.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Nov 4/11, Up 2.71%) Didn't expect it to under perform. Lifted his hedge today. Oils are holding it off. It is the fact that Canadian oil producers are not getting full price for their oil.

HOLD

Doesn't think they go through highs in the next couple of months. Cut your position when it reaches this resistance.

COMMENT

Because this is a large cap ETF, it tends to be growthy. Good stable thing to have. Tax effective. Very cheap. There are other ETF’s he likes more in the Canadian space.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick June 24/11. Down 100%.) Bought Dec 19 Call Options on the S&P/TSX 60 ETF. His point was that if you are going to bet on the Bull market taking off again, his view was why not take a limited risk position as options were relatively cheap at that time.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Jul 29/11, Down 4.73%) He is more skeptical about oils now because Canadian producers are not getting the international price because there is such a glut of US oil. He is not leaping into this one right now.

BUY

TSX is trading at 13X earnings but historically trades at 18X. He likes this one very much.

COMMENT

There is no reason this one couldn’t come back. This is not hopeless. There has been a 10% correction in the last 2 months or so.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Jun 10/11, Down 8.56%) Likes it over some of the other offerings because it is the biggest there is and is optionable.

DON'T BUY

iUnits S&P/TSX 60 ETF (XIU-T) or iShares S&P/TSX Capped Comp. ETF (XIC-T)? Of the 2, he would prefer the XIC-T. It is more diversified with 150-160 names as opposed to 60 with XIU-T. Also, the 16 names in XIU-T are large caps, which is less volatile but not as much growth.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Jan 28/11, Down 5.70%) Energy and materials struggling.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 28/11. Down 4.66%.) S&P/TSX 60 ETF. Still very comfortable with this one.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 8/10. Down 7.91%.) S&P/TSX 60 ETF. Still likes. Banks have been clobbered, which is one of the reasons it has been hurt. Now that it is down, he is happy to be buying this.

BUY

S&P/TSX 60 ETF (XIU-T) versus Cdn Fundamental ETF (CRQ-T)? Both are industry leaders. Very good products. XIU tracks S&P/TSX 60, 60 largest Canadian companies. One of the cheapest in Canada. CRQ tracks RAFI index, more broadly based and more expensive but more of a value tilt and has outperformed XIU.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 22/10. Down 0.15%.) S&P/TSX 60 ETF. Always has this in his portfolio and can write options on it.
