Conservative
Valuation
Fair Value
WEAK BUY
Dividend sustainable?

You get the dividend from the underlying securities, that's for sure. If underlying companies cut dividends, then the dividend will be down. 

But the enhancement from the options strategy comes from the price of volatility. There's nothing more volatile than the price of volatility. Extra income generated is variable. Right now, it's pretty attractive. But he'd be lying if he said that there's a strategy where you can get 10-11% forever and ever without change.

Right now, probably sustainable. Not a strategy to just buy, without understanding the mechanism of it, and forget about it. Nothing wrong with it, but the income generated is variable, with the biggest swing factor being the price of volatility. If volatility goes down, the fund can't get as much for the call options.

He uses the BMO versions of these because of the funds he runs for BMO.

E.T.F.'s
PARTIAL BUY

Covered call option that is food for income oriented investors. MER ratio a little high. Good exposure to Canadian world of index stocks. Leverages product that can present risk. Good on upside, but can be hazardous on downside. Good for small portion of portfolio. 

E.T.F.'s
DON'T BUY

He avoids anything with leverage for his older clients.

E.T.F.'s
PARTIAL BUY
It uses some leverage and owns covered call writing ETF's of other providers so is diversified across covered call writers. Since it adds extra value it is worth the higher fees, but the yield cannot be entirely counted on. It is OK as a part of your portfolio.
E.T.F.'s
DON'T BUY
HDIV vs. HDIF HDIV will give you back part of the yield in the way of return of capital. The MER is a little high at 2.09%. So, will you get that much excess return. HDIF is shorter in its time frame. He can't decide which is better.
E.T.F.'s
COMMENT
Not sure on his preference between the two. Part of HDIV's yield is ROC through covered calls. Management expense rate is a little high at 2.09. HDIF has equal weight gold, utilities, brand leaders, health leaders, etc. They are ETF's for income.
E.T.F.'s
DON'T BUY
Problem is that Hamilton uses about 25% leverage. As a matter of principle, his contracts state that he doesn't use leverage of any kind. So he can't use Hamilton. But that's not an issue for everyone. The other issue is that Hamilton uses other ETFs within their ETFs, so you're paying double the fees of around 150 bps, and that's way too high for an ETF.
E.T.F.'s
COMMENT
Quality operators for investment strategies. No issues with the ETF. This is perfect for adding diversification to your portfolio.
E.T.F.'s
BUY
In option strategy, it is all about the path that is taken. If it is a sharp decline, then covered calls will give you no protection. Hard to say without knowing which path it takes. Likes HDIV with its prudent use of leverage.
