The iShares S&P/TSX 60 Index ETF (XIU) is widely regarded as a strong long-term investment option. Experts note that it serves as a strategy for deferring taxable gains while offering substantial exposure to the Canadian market, which has been outperforming the U.S. market recently. Comparisons to the iShares S&P/TSX Capped Composite Index ETF (XIC) highlight that XIU encompasses around 80% of the broader index's weight, raising considerations about the additional 20% focused on small- to mid-cap and junior resource stocks that entail higher risks and volatility. The consensus suggests that, given the historical and current market conditions, XIU stands out as a compelling choice for investors seeking stability amid market fluctuations, particularly in resource-driven sectors which indicated strong performance last year. Overall, the international markets, particularly Canadian stocks, are projected to remain in a favorable position for future growth.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 15/09. Up 5.6%.) S&P/TSX 60 ETF. The premier Canadian ETF. Very good solid market cap weighted product.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 25/10. Up 4.6%.) S&P/TSX 60 Index. An important one for your portfolio.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 25/10. Up 0.24%.) S&P/TSX 60 ETF. He has this as a core holding. Essentially, you are just buying the market. This will save you the huge portfolio manager and mutual fund fees.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 9/09. Up 11%.) Covered Call. S&P TSE 60 ETF blue chips. Buy at $14.72 and write 03/2010 Calls at $1.35.

COMMENT

Does he recommend delta hedging? Delta hedging is making money on the price movement of the underlying stock with an option strategy. An effective management. Works well in volatile times. Don’t use it for the entire portfolio. With XIU alone, he thinks you would need to use the strategy across many more securities to do it properly.

TOP PICK

Core Canadian position. It is optionable. He does write options against them, particularly in markets like this. Been around the longest. He does covered calls, 6 months out.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Jan 25/10,Up 3% total return) A core holding. He always has this as part of his portfolios. It is very liquid in terms of the options market.

BUY

Has gold in it and he uses this instead of gold ETFs.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Apr 20/09, Up 22.85% + dividend) Sold a few weeks back.

COMMENT

Is range bound. Some people sell covered call options every month to generate extra income.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 23/09. No change.) TSX 60 index. Has gone back and forth between this and the US index, depending which market was better.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 15/09. Up 3.19%.) TSX 60. Has always been a core holding for him. Also good for covered call writing.

TOP PICK

You buy Sept 18 Call at a premium of $.80 and Sell the same Calls at $.25. This is a Calendar Spread, which in a low volatile environment, will do well if volatility picks up..

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 9/09. Up 15%.) Bought S&P TSE 60 ETF blue chips at $14.72 and wrote a March 15 covered call option for $15. You would've taken in $1.31 immediately (taxed as a capital gain). This reduced the cost of the stock giving you lower risks. The strategy makes money in a down or flat market.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 15/09. Up 4.2%.) This tracks the TSX60 and is always a core position for him.
