John Hood iUnits S&P/TSX Completion Index Fund XMD-T TOP PICK Aug 08, 2017

Top Picks tonight are Canadian, because there is so much redundancy in the business. Everybody is 30%-40% financials, 15%-20% energy, 15%-20% materials. Tonight, he has picked some alternatives.The asset allocation is pretty much the same as the large cap ones with all the banks, but they are the smaller companies. At least you are getting small and mid-caps separate from all these mega caps.

TOP PICK

If you are looking for a growth story in Canada, not including energy, you'll have to look at midcaps. Avoids volatility.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 16/05. No change.) Feels that the longer term stance of the market will do OK. Mid caps should do fairly well.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 16/05. Up 8%.) Still likes mid cap stocks.

BUY

Likes this one because it is mid-cap and small-cap. Although the risk and volatility is slightly higher you should also have a higher return.

DON'T BUY

The middle tier and small cap stock in Canada. It is everything, but the TSX 60. There are a lot of mining companies in it, however.

PAST TOP PICK

(Past Top Pick on August 8, 2017, Up 7%) More diverse and better than XIU, though he's not buying this--or any Canadian equities now.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick August 8/17, Up 8%) This holds what’s left over from the XIU 60. Wanted to get into some smaller stuff to get better diversification, and focus on this rather than the broader-based indices.
