BUY

Is a put-write strategy. They sell puts to generate income on the market. Technical/chart analysis does not work, because most of the return comes from income. This ETF is meeting its goal, despite the down-up chart of recent years. There is also PUTW in the US worth looking at.

COMMENT

Writes puts on US stocks. Take a look at this one.

COMMENT

They write puts and buys good companies at lower prices and sells high. He would cycle out of ZPH and ZPW to ZPAY which generates a rate of around 6% but with a better strategy.

COMMENT

ZPH and ZPW way to extract yield from the market without taking a lot of risk. They have been okay but not great. ZPAY is a better way to benefit from the same strategy.

SELL

He has not been happy with it for a year. They created ZPAY-T which he moved to. It is a similar ETF.

DON'T BUY

Similar to a covered call, but it's the flipside. So it's the sell side. Most people don't understand how puts work, and with the put write you're getting a very complicated strategy. He'd recommend something more conservative, such as covered calls because they're a lot easier to understand.

DON'T BUY

Pays a 7% yield. They take a basket of US stocks, then look at options premiums and carving off a bit of the upside and downside. He doesn't like engineered products like this. ZPW can be depleting asset base, losing some capital in the coming months.

COMMENT

He was a big fan of these put-write strategies--to write puts on the best companies on the market--when they launched, but they have since failed to execute this plan. He still holds these for the yields, though, because it provides an alternative source of yield. In a recession, it depends on how fast the markets go down. There is an embedded protection in these ETFs, giving you only half the downside. With these, you place a put, but don't own the companies, but rather harvest the yield off the option premium.

COMMENT

ZPH-T vs. ZPW-T. When the view is that the CAD$ is going to get weaker you don’t want to be hedged. If it is going to be stronger, then you want currency hedged.

BUY

This writes puts on these stocks a little below and market and generates a yield. It's very defensive, but risky, but better than holding cash. It's exposed to the US dollar. ZPW will give you decent yield.

COMMENT

What is the purpose of this product? This are naked put-write. Similar to a covered call. Buying puts is a bearish position. Selling puts is bullish.

BUY

ZWH-T vs. ZPW-T. These are the more defensive holdings. ZPW-T is a little more risk adverse. He is looking to trim exposure on the ZWH-T side to move to ZPW-T at the moment.

COMMENT

Its MER includes the MER of the underlying ETFs. Occasionally they get put some of the stocks and then they sell the stock and re-put the stock. You get a distribution when this happens as a return of capital. Volatility determines how many of their stocks they get put and have to sell.

WEAK BUY

How to play the market defensively. The put-write strategy did perform better in the last couple of months. ZWU-T is a high dividend payer in the utilities. It has pipelines in it so as pipeline expansion has been crushed, this has weighted a lot on the sector. Otherwise he likes utilities here.

COMMENT

It writes puts 10-20% below market puts to generate yield on great companies. If the market sells off they own the stock. They then sell the stock and re-write the put. It is not an opposite not the S&P and not a hedged product. HXS-T gives you an inverse to the S&P 500.
