When Japanese market crashed on Monday I remember that I read the article from the star 8 or so months ago about Japan being the source of the major market volatility.

Just got a notification that TD DI is implementing partial shares. Not sure how the commission is working out. Looks like $2 for a partial shares instead of $9.99? Putting 0.999 shares the commission is 1.99 but 1.00 shares it jumps to $9.99 commission. Still a step in the right direction .

Good day, I turned 18 in mid 2022, and thus am entitled to 6000+6500+7000=19500$ in contribution limits if I understand correctly. I currently have 30k in net deposits in my TFSA on Wealthsimple (not portfolio value) and after checking, have repeatedly overcontributed for multiple months consecutively at many points between 2022-204. Problem is when I used Wealthsimple Tax and uploaded my portfolio, none of my previous tax returns had me pay the 1% per month penalty I keep hearing about. Am I missing something? Should I sell my XEQT stocks immediately and take a hit especially after the market this week and clear the overcontribution and hope the CRA didn't notice? Should I just pretend nothing is wrong until CRA comes for me? Do I be proactive and voluntarily go talk to the CRA and pay the penalty?

I've just transferred all my accounts to RBC direct investing and went to execute a trade last night for some spy options at market price to fill this morning. I was using my practice account to try a few trades before I jumped in with my own cash. The order I placed last night wasn't filled this morning. When I called to ask why they told me to create a new order that was filled immediately (practice account still). The person I spoke to on the phone didn't seem to have full command of the english language and it was very frustrating to try and get an answer as to whether or not I could expect to see a similar result if I was using my live account. After being yelled at by the help desk and berated for expecting the practice account to work like a live account would (why wouldn't they?), I am questioning my decision to switch to RBCDI. The help desk seems caustic and unqualified and my initial trade wasn't filled filled so I'm questioning whether to even attempt to trade with them at all. Has anybody else run into something like this? Is this experience normal for anyone else? I would expect the entire idea of a practice account would be to try a few trades and look for anomalies and work any bugs out. Which is exactly what I'm doing. But the help desk cannot answer my question besides referring me to the exchange agreements. My fear is placing an order to be filled next day at open and having them not get filled, or filled well after open. I know options can have varying liquidity, but these were spy options. So I know there's plenty of volume for a small order.

I currently invest through national bank of Canada. My FHSA i put it in a 4.75% GIC for 1 year. Contributed 16.000, expected to be at 16.768.20 My RRSP I contributed around 11,475.09 and its currently 11,871.25. It is invested in one of national banks portfolios NBI CONSERVATIVE PORTFOLIO - INV and only up 3.45% My TFSA I contributed 31,500 and its up to 32,699.21 in another of national banks portfolios NBI EQUITY PORTFOLIO - INV and is up 3.8% I believe I could make significantly more investing on my own than what the bank is currently doing. Had I invested in something like XEQT I would be up like 14% instead. So currently my total assets are 600$ Chequing and 10,000 in national bank high interest savings 1.5%. and 60k in registered accounts. I planned to keep around 10k in a savings account as a emergency fund. And am working on building my chequing up a little to get some spending money. I have pretty much 0 expenses I am 21 years old and live for virtually free at my parents house and plan to join the military soon. Anyways I was thinking about dropping maybe 50k into xeqt and 10k into a etf like evolve crypto ( etc ) would this be sensible or should I be looking to diversify/try different etfs. I plan for these to be held for quite the long term the soonest I would use any would be my fhsa in probably 10 years the rest will likely be held for quite a bit longer

I've only been with them for about two months and setup a cash account and RRSP account that I transferred my former employers RSUs that vested. Everything was going ok until I attempted to withdraw from my cash account and received an email saying they found a discrepancy with my account and my bank. My full legal name used for my Questrade account name doesn't match my bank account. E.g. My full legal name is John Andrew Smith and with my bank is Andrew Smith. They asked me to get a letter from the bank stating that both names are the same customer but the only way to get it resolved is to change my name with my home branch which is all the way downtown. My argument with them is why are they asking for this now? I'm using the same bank and account that I did when I funded this account. I already submitted by ID and other financial documents when I opened this account. Anyway they reversed the withdrawal and I'm just about to transfer everything to Wealthsimple. Or is there another trading platform that I should look at? Thanks for letting me rant

Hello, I am in my mid-twenties and have maxed out my TFSA and FHSA. I am confused about whether I should open an RRSP or a personal trade account to continue investing. A couple of factors to consider are that I expect my income to go up as my career progresses, and there is a chance I move to the USA in the future. Having said that, are there any downsides to opening up an RRSP as opposed to a personal account for my situation?

So I just started investing as a 22 yr old. Have about 15K in savings. My goal is to invest long term for retirement, so a ~45 year period. I'm super new to investing and don't know much about it. My plan is to max out my TFSA with 100% vfv (although I do hold some zsp too) and then my rrsp with 100% voo. Is this a bad idea? Should I look for more diversification? Maybe global markets? Any tips/suggestions/insights :)

Hello, I was forced out of the markets this Monday because the TSX was closed. I couldn't liquidate my UBIL ETF inside my RRSP to buy the dip on US markets since it is traded in TSX. In my RRSP, instead of holding US government T bills inside UBIL ETF, I want to hold them inside SGOV, BIL or SHV ETFs which trade in US markets. However, I only want to do so if I can 100% confirm that the foreign withholding tax on the cash distributions is not applied as long as these ETFs are kept inside the RRSP. Is anybody holding a US traded T bills ETF like the ones I mentioned inside their RRSP? Would you be so kind to confirm you are not paying a foreign withholding tax?

I can't figure out how to place funds in a Type F Investment Savings Account using RBC direct investing. I tried calling for help, and even visited a branch, and their advice doesn't seem to work. I can't find such an investment among the possible choices, and it's the highest interest paying account that RBC offers in Canadian funds.

I’m hoping there is a sort of straight forward answer for this. I want to know how many accounts you guys have for savings and what not that help you get through life. I currently am with CIBC and Wealth simple. I have: - CIBC Chequing account where my paycheque goes - CIBC TFSA that has around $10k in it - Wealth Simple Cash account with 3.5% interest - CIBC RRSP - I need to recontribute to this because I used money from it for buying my first house. - Wealthsimple TFSA investment account that I have recurring purchases every week going into indexes and what not what I like. What do you guys have as account set ups? Am I good with just a 3.5% cash account in WS for an emergency fund? A TFSA with CIBC for medium term savings and a TFSA with Wealthsimple for long term stock investments? Unfortunately, I have to recontribute to my RRSP but once that’s done I probably won’t use it anymore since I have a pension with my place of business. TLDR; what’s the most efficient account set up for my money? 1 TFSA, 1 Cash/Savings account and 1 investment?

So recently I opened a BMO Investorline account to buy some stocks and today I see this negative balance message in my account. I quickly transfered some 400 CAD and my question is, is it going to automatically convert itself to cover the negative USD balance? I also don't remember ever buying more than I could pay but I transfered 400 CAD to be sure since I'm still new to this. Apologies for the somewhat cluelessness and thank you! https://preview.redd.it/wkadezmldohd1.png?width=1195&format=png&auto=webp&s=353117c00eefbe1f66d40537cb24aee6ae2aec0f

Hi everyone! My wife and I have both been investing in XEQT for our FHSA accounts, but she’s recently decided not to buy a house. We’re now considering transferring those funds entirely into an S&P 500 ETF. We have a 15-year time horizon, and we’re well aware of the risks, rewards, and diversification involved. With the recent split of XUS, it could be advantageous for us as we dollar-cost average (DCA) every month. I’ve done some research on VFV, ZSP, and XUS, and they seem quite similar, with the main difference being trading volume. Does anyone have any thoughts or additional insights on this? I’d appreciate hearing your experiences or opinions!

Greetings, My wife inherited some USD and entrusted 150 K to me to invest. 1. She is around 36 years old 2. She has a lot of savings (inclusive of this 150 k, nearly 1 mil Canadian) 3. Overall she is fairly conservative investing wise, but is generally ok with me doing whatever. 4. We presently don't own property, but are actively looking My thinking is to keep everything in USD and do a basic spread of broad-index US ETFs via Questrade almost completely in securities. My time horizon is fairly long-term, but my wife is a little more sensitive to drops etc. I was also thinking to do a bit in dividend ETFs just so she has a little psychological kick and can use to spend on trips/luxuries. Any insights or suggestions into any aspects of this would be appreciated (e.g., are there any currency plays to be made or is just keeping in USD the best? tax implications? accounts?). Cheers

Just a little backstory before we start, recently i fell victim to a crypto hack and lost a huge amount of money, money which will take me many years to recover from, and as a way to bounce back (even if slowly over time) I was looking into stock investing, possibly dividend, but I became lost as to where to start and what should i begin my investing journey with. As i live in Canada, i saw QT and WS as potential options, or even MooMoo. But I am not sure which one would better suit my needs. I will be starting with as little as 2000CAD, for now I cannot put any more than that, and I want to be growing this over time, would it be a good idea to start with dividend right at the beginning? or should I look into something else for now to potentially grow it a bit more before I go into dividends? And is robot trading worth it? Thank you for your time.

I have a large sum in non-registered accounts and thus everything is taxable. I am looking to build a income portfolio as the sum is more than enough to retire on, but every ETF that is recommended has high reinvested distributions because as mentioned it is in unsheltered accounts. This leads to captial gains taxes when I don’t even liquidate anything. Any recommendations for ETF’s (ideally dividend growth) with low to no reinvested distributions? Best I can find so far are some Global ETFs (formally Horizons) that use a swap mechanism to stop any forced distributions. I will also take any recommendations for low-fee or preferably fee-only financial advisors.

So I'm looking in my questrade acccount and I see that I'm in the red $180 on VRE. I've been holding it for years so I just kinda let it sit. It's only paying a 2.81% yield while something risk free like [CASH.TO](http://CASH.TO) is almost paying 5%. It seems like I should take the small loss of $180 and put that $ towards something with a higher interest. It's only $2000 worth of shares but even at a 1% yield increase I would get $200 after a year which pays for the loss. Seems like a no brainer to sell?

Long story short, I left my old employer and have $27,000 in my VRSP that I need to decide what to do with. It is currently with IA but with a 1% management fee so I’m definitely not keeping it there. I do some small investing on the side with WealthSimple but am nervous about investing my entire retirement savings to this point on my own. I guess my question is, is WealthSimple a good option to transfer my VRSP to the RRSP there and invest long term? And also, what should I be investing in for long term gain and stability? ETFs? S&P500? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello All, hope this is not a dumb question. I've been wondering how sustainable the high interest of EQ and Wealthsimple is. Does it threaten the big banks? Sure, they are bigger banks, and have other sources of income such as trading platforms and mortgage etc., but I'm seeing more people moving over to EQ and Wealthsimple. I've recently noticed Wealthsimple is offering lower interest mortgage on top of high interest savings. Does that threaten the big banks over time? The argument that people are still with their first bank account doesn't seem to really hold water, as they are probably keeping a minimal amount and not their main bank acount, and it wouldn't surprise me if the new parents opened accounts for their children in one of these newer and seemingly better banks. Should investors of the big banks worry? If there's a place for more information on this topic, please let me know. I couldn't seem to find more than the basic like "how banks make money". Thank you for reading and your time : )

Just got hit with a reality of being 40 and getting smarter with investing. I have been saver but not an investor, lost 35k during covid chasing the hype and meme stocks. Looking for advice/recommendations from people who are retired or close to retire, what would you do if in my position with 250k in cash, full room in TFSA, 70k in RRSP. If I have to consider retiring in 20 years how would you go about investing money putting yourself in my shoes. Share your mistakes and success stories.

Question that I haven't heard discussed: How much cash do you set aside to buy EFTs or stocks during moments of market panic? I have three basic "portfolios": an OMERS defined pension, an RRSP that's 100% XEQT, and a non-registered account that I'm building up with Canadian dividend aristocrat stocks. While I truly believe that time in the market is better than timing the market, I do like to have a little cash set aside to buy stocks on my want list. At the moment, I have $10,000 allocated for this purpose -- my dry powder. Do others here do the same? Is there a rule of thumb when it comes to this practice? Does it make any sense? Genuinely curious to hear from more experienced investors on this topic. Thank you.

I just started investing like 6 months ago and have been researching a lot about investing. Very mad that I didn’t start investing earlier in life. As of right now iv got about 10k in us individual stocks that I believe are solid stocks that I got for fair price. Nike, Amazon, google, PepsiCo, and Pfizer, 40% of that position is Amazon. These are stocks I plan to never sell. I also have 25k in just vfv s&p 500 index etf as investing in Canada stocks kinda sucks, I plan to add to this position and also invest in veqt etf. All of this is invested through my tfsa. I’m worried that I’m so far behind though as most pros say you need 100k by the time your 30. I currently live with my parents and make 50k yearly. I’m hoping to have around 60k invested by this time next year just dcaveraging these etfs. Any advice or critiques appreciated.

https://globalnews.ca/news/10675060/air-canada-tgv-train-company-bidder-electric-fast-rail-project/ Air Canada, which usually flies people around in planes, has decided to join a team that’s bidding to build a fast, high-frequency train system between Windsor and Quebec City. This is surprising because Air Canada has historically been against high-speed rail projects, especially in areas where they already have lots of flight routes. They’re teaming up with SNCF Voyageurs, the French company that runs the famous TGV trains. While SNCF joining makes sense because they’re train experts, people are raising eyebrows about Air Canada’s involvement. Critics think Air Canada might be trying to control the rail project to protect its own business, especially since a fast train could take away some of their passengers.

Any suggestions for portfolio planning tools that can simulate all the various taxable streams (regular, capital gains, dividends, etc.) and any reinvested capital gains for ETFs in taxable accounts. Sector allocation would be good too. I am NOT looking for something that tracks the markets for an existing portfolio, but something that can simulate and estimate taxes and such for a new portfolio.

Hey 🇨🇦 gang, as the title suggests, I’ve been investing a significant portion in income-producing ETFs, and even after a 15% withholding tax on US-derived income, I'm still going to face a hefty tax bill this year since this income will count as part of my personal income. That said, I'm considering ways to mitigate this tax situation. I’ve heard that it’s perfectly acceptable to have a non-registered account owned by a business entity (like a corporation). This way, the derivative income from my investments would be classified as business income, potentially receiving more favorable tax treatment compared to being considered personal income on a T5. I know it’s a long shot, but I’m curious if any of you have faced a similar situation and implemented such a strategy.

Since CRA won't let you sell puts in a TFSA, I like many others here I'm sure, have discovered the in the money covered calls trade that can act the same or similar to secured puts. However, I'm concerned that since they're US style options that they can be called away at any time. Is this something to be worried about, or are they called prior to expiry so rarely as to not cause any significant worry? It seems odd that I can't put up cash in an interest bearing account to cover selling puts as this would seem to be inherently less risky. But then again, maybe I'm missing something. The world of options is complex after all.

It's so easy Just go to search Type the beggining of the company you're researching and it should pop up. You'll notice that none of the filings you now see are from your company. Don't worry just type 10 in the search by filing number field. Now you can see forms starting with 10 for the company you're researching. Now we're really cooking. Click on your company's name and on their profile page you should find, somewhere in the middle of the page, a button for all company documents. Be sure to download all the documents you might need because the session absolutely will time out and you'll have to repeat these steps again. You've made it. Was that so hard? I don't think it could possibly be easier. Seriously though if there's an easier way please let me know. The company sites are my go to for now.

I know the CRA is intentionally ambiguous about what constitutes day trading in the TFSA. But if I was to sell and take profit from speculative bets (e.g., Nvidia) and reinvest those profits into new speculative bets, with no intention to withdraw this money any time soon, will this alert the CRA? This isn't consistently buying/selling on a daily basis, but more like a few trades every 1-2 months.

Quite some time ago I did not believe in ETFs yet and invested a bit in StageZero Lifesciences company. It was the start of pandemic and I thought all of the healthcare will do well. SZLS did not and I failed to exit the stock in time. So I kept it around. Checking up on it today I see its price at exactly 0.0, my %P/L column showing -100%. But I still have 8720 shares of it and there are no news of the company going bankrupt. The site is up, CEO posted an update on the company's YouTube channel a few months ago. Apparently they still get some revenue, but not enough to even pay its auditors to complete the paperwork required by the TSX to unfreeze trading. I have wrote off this investment as a mistake (my biggest one, but manageable) and am mostly just curious what happens with it now. I wonder if anybody knows what happens to a company that seems insolvent, but is unwilling to file for bankruptcy?

Hi all, American here. Been dividend investing for a while now and diversifying into Canadian equities such as BNS, HRUFF, RIOCAN, etc. My question. Are more and more Canadians pessimistic about their economy such that REITs in Canada would go down? I wouldn't think so, but been reading some Canadian subreddits and the tone has been mighty negative on Canada's future. Maybe it's just a noisy minority of keyboard bashers idk. Thanks in advance.

Has anyone else been asked to fill out this form? We're a small incorporated business in Canada, with no US dealings other than XSP in our investment portfolio. I've never seen this form, and neither has my accountant. I have obviously stated that we're residents of Canada, but TD says that one of the boxes for 1B needs to be checked off, too. The only thing I can think of is "Company with an item of income that meets active trade or business test". I vaguely remember filling out a much shorter version of this form when we first opened the account in order to claim reduced taxation on US derived dividends. I guess the form is longer now. Any light on this appreciated. [https://www.td.com/content/dam/wealth/document/pdf/direct-investing/591854-en.pdf](https://www.td.com/content/dam/wealth/document/pdf/direct-investing/591854-en.pdf)

Hello everyone, I am using fake numbers here to make it simpler: If you have to take a $1,000,000 mortgage at 10% and you have $100K in a TFSA with an average gain of 10% Whenever you leave the $100K in your TFSA or use the money to lower the mortgage amount does not make any difference. However doesn't the fact that the TFSA gains are tax free plays a role here? Something is telling me that it should be the case, but I cannot put that in a formula to show it. Does anyone has any insights ? Thx T.

I'm a Canada/USA dual citizen and want to get a TFSA set up to start investing. [Canadian in a T-Shirt](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlSEg6Fux_A&t=144s) has a video explaining how, as a Canadian, you're considered a "foreign investor" and automatically pay a 15% tax on dividends paid out from ETFs holding US stocks. (I am aware that you can avoid this tax if you hold these ETFs in an RRSP.) But are dual citizens investing in TFSAs considered "foreign investors?" Would I get lucky and not pay the tax because I'm a US citizen? This would be really nice because I wouldn't have to open up two accounts. Can't find the answer anywhere.

I have a TFSA account at IBKR and I've been trying to make sense of the rules about holding bonds, when is it qualified etc., but I don't find it very clear from the website (https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/technical-information/income-tax/income-tax-folios-index/series-3-property-investments-savings-plans/series-3-property-investments-savings-plan-folio-10-registered-plans-individuals/income-tax-folio-s3-f10-c1-qualified-investments-rrsps-resps-rrifs-rdsps-tfsas.html#toc8). They only list 'some of the more common debt obligations that are qualified investments' which doesn't tell me much about what are the non-qualified ones. The most general point is h): 'a debt obligation that has, or had at the time of purchase, an investment grade rating (generally BBB or higher) with a prescribed credit rating agency (see ¶1.31) and was issued as part of a single issue, or under a continuous issuance program, of debt of at least $25 million'. My main interest would be government bonds and treasury bills but it's not clear if there is a clear restriction on the issuing country (see point a): 'a debt obligation issued or guaranteed by the Government of Canada (for example, Canada Savings Bonds)' ). Can I hold US bonds for example without having to pay taxes? Or any other country?

Ive been asking around about this and have never been satisfied with the answers i get from financial advisors. I have my principal property with 500k mortgage and a rental property for around 250k. Not hurting financially and i always think what is the better rout to go? Start putting down money on the mortgages or just simply invest it in the stock market. Im in my 40s, married no kids living in Alberta. What are peoples thoughts on this? Edit: my principal residence interest rate is 1.42% , maturing 2026 . Rental is at 2.5% maturing 2026 as well.
