Episode 379: AMA #9: Covered Call ETFs, Currency Hedging, and Bond Misconceptions

This is the Rational Reminder Podcast, a weekly reality check on sensible investing and financial decision making from two Canadians. We're hosted by me, Benjamin Felix, Chief Investment Officer, and Dan Bordellotti, Portfolio Manager at PWL Capital. Good to be back. Welcome everyone to episode 379. People will notice that I'm not in my usual podcast studio.

Today I'm uh actually at the PWL Ottawa office, trying to avoid the construction sounds at my house, and then also we had some uh in-office meetings today. Today we're doing an AMA episode. It's been a while since we did one. We're back at that today. We've got some good questions, hey Dan?

Yeah, there's some good ones on the list. I know in the past some of them have been, I think, relatively niche or a bit almost a bit obscure, some ones. I'm not sure they would have really wide appeal, but there's a lot of good questions in here, I think, that a lot of people find the answers interesting. Yeah, I think so. Now before we jump into the AMA questions, I wanted to read this quote out from uh John Campbell's new book.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript (83 minutes, 15,703 words), segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.

No account needed, we create one from your checkout email. With credits it is 1 credit; packs start at 5 episodes for $3.49, and monthly plans are cheaper still.
