It's up because of the 5G revolution. He uses IGM, a broader based US tech ETF, and he's thinking of taking profits in it. He's a cautious investor these days due to tariff war uncertainty. If you buy anything, it should have a dividend, so you still get paid if things take a turn.

Morningstar rates it only one star. He likes tech. Don't trust the Morningstar ratings blindly. It's a higher-beta ETF.

(A Top Pick May 22/18, Up 31%) A way to get away from the classic TSX and focus more on the tech stocks. A lot of growth in the sector.

As he came into 2019, he went into some ETFs and looked at XIT. He passed; it's too narrow. He bought IGV, BOTZ and others in tech, because he expects those stocks in these ETFs to trend this year.

A Canadian tech ETF, including Shopify, Constellation Software, OpenText, CGI and BlackBerry. If you want to play Canadian tech, go for it. This is capped, so not a single stock takes up more than 25%. This is nicely diversified and avoids currency issues (it excludes American tech stocks).

Would you recommend any tech ETF? Just bought it. In the US you can go with the QQQ. ZQQ is the Canadian version hedged to CAD. He likes the sector even as he doesn't use nor he likes Facebook (F-N). Markets are driven by changes in technology.

XIT-T vs. XLK-N. XIT-T is a market cap ETF. XLK-N is very diversified. XIT-T will be much more volatile. He would choose XLK-N because of diversification. The top has been in place for a while so he would be worried about them both. He would stay away, but choose XLK-N if his arm was twisted.

How does it compares to the Power Share QQQQ ETF (QQQ-Q)? Lots less Canadian technology compared to the US. Very concentrated in 4-5 names.

(A Top Pick August 8/17, Up 29%) It’s done well. CGI is a big holding. Wishes he had more of it.

Canadian high tech companies. The top 4 are 75% of the portfolio. That is a risk. You could just buy the top 4 names individually. We had a massive run in these stocks. There is a fear of missing out. The momentum has cracked a bit in the last few days. Be conscious of the risk when you buy these ETFs.

(Past Top Pick on August 8, 2017, Up 25%) He's holding and adding to it. Includes big companies such as Shopify, and he expects the Canadian tech sector to perform well. There's more risk in this sector, but an investor is safe if it takes up 5% of a portfolio. And he's not excited about Canadian stocks in general now.

A past top pick that he's sticking with. It holds no Canadian pipelines, he jokes. Canada has some good tech companies like Shopify, CGI, Constellation, Blackberry and Open Text. This ETF gets away from the typical Canadian stocks (banks), so this offers diversification.

He sees a nice bullish breakout in February and the pullback is interesting for a possible buy-in. He likes the technology sector and sees this ETF as a good proxy.

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 only problem with this is that 50% of it is concentrated in 3 stocks. There is added risk to this because of that concentration.
