Some options for frustrated investors to consider

It’s been a mixed bag for stocks so far this year. Some sectors continue to struggle, especially those that are interest-sensitive like telecoms and utilities. But other sectors have picked up the slack, including energy. And some overseas markets are also doing well.

: This fund invests in a portfolio of the top 50 Indian stocks by market cap – the “Nifty Fifty” index, as it’s commonly known.: India is benefitting from an influx of foreign capital as more investors and corporations move to profit from its burgeoning economy and growing population. The price has been volatile over the past year, but the overall trend is up. We’ve seen a gain of 10.2 per cent since the units were recommended last October.

The portfolio is equally weighted with no stock holding accounting for more that 3.71 per cent of total assets. Top holdings include Kinross Gold Corp., Teck Resources Ltd, and Finning International Inc..: Payments are made quarterly and can vary significantly. The trailing 12-month total payout was 60.6 cents for a yield of 2.85 per cent at the current price.: This fund has performed well, and the portfolio composition is altered on a regular basis to reflect market conditions.

: This ETF tracks the entire U.S. market, including small, medium, and large cap stocks. It comes in both a hedged version and an unhedged version . We have recommended XUU.: The fund has been on an uptrend for most of this year and was showing a year-to-date gain of 10.29 per cent as of April 15. We have a capital gain of 147 per cent since our original recommendation in March 2015.: The fund was launched in February 2015 and has $2.7 billion in assets under management. The MER is a very low 0.
