Experts have mixed opinions about the Covered Call US Banks ETF (ZWK-T). While some appreciate the ETF's capacity for generating yield through covered calls and highlight the overall strength of US banks, particularly in the face of private credit risks, others express concerns about its composition, which is heavily weighted towards regional banks rather than large-cap banks. Many analysts suggest that investing directly in individual stocks, especially larger banks, could yield better total returns compared to this ETF. Additionally, there are concerns regarding the potential trade-off of upside due to the covered call strategy employed by ZWK-T. Overall, while there is a belief in the potential stability and growth of US banks, many experts emphasize caution regarding current market conditions and timing, suggesting that the ETF may not be the best entry point at this time.

BMO.TO
DON'T BUY
He doesn't like the US banks this late in the cycle as the yield curve inverts. Banks are making less money and will face increasing challenges.
HOLD
He likes it. He knows how BMO runs the covered call desk and he likes it. He likes US Banks. He would hold.
COMMENT
The US banks benefited from the looser regulatory environment of the Trump's administration. If you think that the US banks are to move higher you are better off just owning the banks directly. 3-5 years out he prefers the banks directly.
TOP PICK
What is interesting is that this starts trading tomorrow. He likes the structure of BMO covered calls as they don't overlay the calls too tight to the strike price. In a low rate environment, this is a good way to boost FI yield. MER: 0.65%
