ZFN<\/a> last year by 2%. As the name suggests, ZEB holds the big six banks more or less equally. It charges an MER similar to ZFN’s at 0.6%, but pays a higher dividend of 3.33%. Volumes are more robust at an average of 612,000. And like XFN, ZEB is currently trading at 52-week highs.<\/p>\nBased on these numbers, it appears that ZEB stock is the superior ETF. It’s cheaper and performs better. Over the last five years, though, ZEB barely edged out XFN at 42.3% to 40.8%, so the difference is not that dramatic. The choice boils down to whether you expect the insurers or the banks to have a better year. If the former, then go for XFN. If the latter, then ZEB. Either ETF is a buy for the long term.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
