Today, Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTA commented about whether TDIV-Q, CIBR-Q, ARKW-N, CYH-T, ZDY-T, ZWH-T, GDX-N, HXD-T, JNUG-N, SU-T, XBB-T, XBAL-T are stocks to buy or sell.
At market bottoms you don’t want ETFs with covered calls like ZWH-T because you are giving away some of the upside. You want ZDY-T or the currency hedged version of that. CYH-T is a benchmark for world dividends. It is a Canadian dollar currency hedged ETF. TDIV-Q is a technology dividend play.

The Vix stayed elevated for months and months until March of 2009. He would encourage people to understand the VIX and north of 40 is indicates too much volatility to catch falling knives. He then outlined money falling into money market funds. At some point we are going to get a phenomenal rally. People ask where the bottom is but we need to see the VIX below 40. It is 75-80 recently. He was aggressively buying with the S&P at these levels at Christmas of 2018 but now he is not.
