Great video! Bought my first instalment of XEI as I wanted more exposure to energy stocks vs the financial sector like VDY. Picked up 100 shares under $27 on this latest pull back. Will add more to be able to drip soon. All the best in 2025

This ETF is right up my alley but I’m burnt out from the Friday stream. Going to save this video for later.

I like XEI in my tfsa and non reg. capital gains and eligible dividends

Good video. Thanks. I've looked at XEI before, but found that HMAX is similar enough in holdings & gets the DRIP going for one-third the initial investment

Pulling up the backtest of a 10k investment over X years, it definitely shows steady TR, but overall it underperforms. Like, it looks pretty safe, but you obviously give up a fair bit for that lower risk like you say. To me, it's in a weird spot: it's weak in terms of TR and it's weak in terms of income (both now, and for dividend increase over time). In the end, I can't recommend it in good conscience - there are just too many other funds that do each strategy better.

Are you on Blossom? Would love to connect with you

Pretty sure these are *non qualified* dividends, which means you gotta pay extra tax on em. Even in a registered account. Kinda ruins it for me.
