HOLD
Tends to recommend this as more recession-resistant, with a MER of only 8 basis points. Not recession-proof, as it holds some oil and gas. Good dividend strategy.
BUY

A US high dividend ETF. It is available as XHD-T in Canada as a hedged wrapper. It looks for companies with an economic moat. It is a good product, the dividend is good and the performance has been okay. The question is the currency exposure. It may help you or hurt you. XHD-T will insulate you from movements in the currency.

COMMENT

[US Income] This is not going to be a great growth area. High Growth should go into a TFSA, so this one goes into a registered account.

COMMENT

Pretty well diversified amongst different sectors. The idea is to get a very high dividend for shareholders. He would be cautious about being too overweight in dividend paying names, because as interest rates start to move up, these would be proxy for bonds and could have a sideways movement.

BUY

A dividend paying ETF that he can hold for the next few months without worrying? His preference is to overweight US equities and he likes this one. This will hold names such as AT&T, Verizon, J&J, Procter & Gamble, Wells Fargo, etc, a broad base of different sectors. Pays a pretty decent dividend of probably 3%-4%.

COMMENT

US dividend ETF? The go to high dividend name that he likes would be this. It holds names like AT&T which pays a pretty high dividend plus others. The fund has done well, and is up about 15% per year over the last 3 years. The yield is about 3.5%.

PAST TOP PICK

Recommended at $57.53 now 69.08 up 24.28% High yield US companies. Very stable.

TOP PICK
This is falling back on a more defensive scene. The average yield of this basket of stocks is about 4.2%. Because it is mainly in healthcare, consumer staples and telecom, it has a very low beta compared to the S&P.
