Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTAHealthcare Leaders Income ETFHHL.TOBUYDec 18, 2017

Healthcare sector lagging in the market, and is due for an increase in value. Very large companies with tailwind in aging population/demand for healthcare. Covered call strategy adds to yield. Good option for investors going forward. 

It was strictly a yield play when interest rates were so low. He has only a small position. Growth in the ETF can be somewhat restrained by the covered call structure. It's a tradeoff between yield and growth. He's still bullish on the healthcare sector, the demographics are beautiful.

Very good for healthcare exposure.
Actively managed with good performance.
High dividend yield (~10%).
Good for long term investors.

Invests in healthcare issuers, a space he likes. Healthcare offers growth and defence and does well in late cycles and recessions. Pays enhanced dividends, too, with options totalling 8.7% dividends. The MER is around 1%, which is a little high. Covered calls do well in flat or down markets. Covered calls are also very tax efficient.

HHL-T vs ZEB-T Canadian banks good long-term investment. European banks good as well. Canada doesn't have much exposure to healthcare stocks but they're going to be part of the future. HHL could be a way to play that. Have to think diversified. Good to make room for both of them in your portfolio.
