Consumer staple names have fallen off, with trades into cyclicals. Tough to own given the valuation relative to what the growth rates are. You're paying 24x PE for 5-6% growth rate, a bit pricey. Prefers Costco in this space; not cheap, but growth rate is better. COST is doing things well in the e-commerce space.

Covered calls give you a boost in the distribution. Not a bad strategy when market is flat or slightly negative. If market continues to go higher, you're better off owning the underlying securities. Consider XEI instead, no covered call. Owns the securities outright, and so you won't get as high a dividend, but you might get more performance. In last 6 months, XEI returned17-18%, whereas ZWC returned 10.68%.

DLTR vs. DG Likes the dollar store trade in general. Prefers DG, as it benefits from being in rural areas, away from the Targets and Walmarts. DLTR has a lot of urban competition. In the next 3-5 years, he prefers DG.
