iShares Core S&P/TSX Capped Composite Index ETF T.XIC

Alternate Symbol(s):  IRSHF

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide long-term capital growth by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of the S&P/TSX Capped Composite Index (the Index), net of expenses. To achieve its investment objective the fund uses an indexing strategy. Under this strategy, the Fund seeks to replicate the performance of the Index, net of expenses, by employing, directly or indirectly, through investment in one or more iShares ETFs and/or through the use of derivatives, a replicating strategy or sampling strategy. A replicating strategy is an investment strategy intended to replicate the performance of the Index by investing, directly or indirectly, primarily in a portfolio of index securities in substantially the same proportions as they are represented in the Index.

xic same holdings as xiu

xic same holdings as xiuThe holdings are the same, just the weights differ (limited to 10% max.). I've waited for the capped fund for too long, and got caught in the NT downdraft with the xiu. The problem with the TD 300 fund will be the same as with the xiu: too much NT to get proper diversification in Canada (unlike the S&P 500). The iunit-mid-cap looks very appealing (coming out next week). I think the xic and the midcap iunit fund will give a good balance for Cdn. equity. My only complaint is that they have increased the MER on the midcap and other new iunits from .17 to .55. Comments?
