Because Xeqt is more diversified, and those other securities that make it more stable limit the profits that you could make over an extended time horizon. Look at the graphs of all 3 Etf's expanded out as far as they will go. (I guess Xeqt doesn't go back that far but my point remains)

Yes, the US is going to be dealing with massive inflation if these tariffs come into effect. This will not be good for the US economy. Robert Lighthizer has Trump convinced that devaluing the US dollar by implementing tariffs will help tackle the US' current account deficit. The main issue is that this will lead to mass inflation and piss off Wall Street as their US assets will devalue. Factor in counter tariffs and all out trade war, and there will be no winners.

Also agree, for me BMO has some of the best customer service and knowing someone will actually pick up the phone if you call is just too valuable over saving a couple hundred in commission. But by all means try to get the perks if you can. Welcome bonuses can be huge

Seems like you have your answers then. You have two constraints: mutual funds and scalping/trading. You need IBK for scalping. The transfer fee must be about 150$, no big deal. I have accounts with WS, BNCD, IBK, Moomoo and I use Disnat to manage my mom's money. I had accounts with RBC Investissement in the past. IBK was specifically for scalping (connected to Trading View, so no Trailing stop lost sadly). I haven't touched it in a while. I just switched 2k to Moomoo in a TFSA to get the 200$ promotion(it's an IBK PC platform). It's part of my emergency fund, so it WILL just stay there in CBIL or PAYS or HBIL.

Does anyone have any experience with downloading transaction history and loading it into other software on WS? Are their tranaction downloads usable for this kind of thing? I recently switched to Investorline and it is terrible for this. I'm convinced there is manual data entry happening behind the scenes as I'll see with same type of transaction with different transaction codes (e.g. redemption vs sale). MF transactions are actually split into separate transactions e.g. a sale for the whole amount of units and a separate line for fractional amount of units (1000ths) with no way to tie the line items together. These two line items can appear on separate dates as well (no exaggeration ... really!). For some transactions the fractional amount is ommitted. I need to look at the printed statement to figure it out. I can't automate the import process because of this craziness. Is wealth simple any better at this?

HXT has +1% better total return over 5y, over VCN and VCN is +1% better over 3y than both HXT and HXCN, which has only 3y history and is the least liquid. For 1y all three are within 0.15%. VCN lacks of course behind when you look at price return.

I will be going 60% cash into the end of year rally. Will DCA back in slowly over the first months of 2025. Worst case, I miss some gains. Best case, I get back in at a much lower cost basis. Tariffs would cause an immediate 5-15% correction in Canadian stocks overall. There's no good position to prepare for 25% tariffs, unfortunately. However, if investing for the long-term, then 4 years of chaos is a good buying opportunity. I'll be upping my monthly contributions by a lot If it happens. Buying all the way down makes the climb back up so much sweeter

Did you buy using margin? Or was the purchase all cash? It you paid all cash, then it may have been the timing of the trade. You should be covered now with the new transfer and charged a small interest. If it was using margin, then you could have negative balances if the stock continues to fall. Also if you bought using margin, then there will be interest charged every month. https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/07/margin_interest.asp

There is a prescribed rate if you borrow from your corporation. Loaning to it can be done at your terms. Also you can either loan the money or invest it. There is a line for liabilities due to shareholders otherwise it goes under equity.

TD Earnings on Thursday. Really interested to see how they go. Even with all the issues, wonder if there will be a small dividend hike

I can't imagine there will be a dividend hike - for any bank, but especially TD. Mortgage sales low, interest rates dropping, and US restrictions all reduce revenue.

Don’t charge a rate, make it interest free. Otherwise you’re going to charge/earn interest that must be reported on taxes. Additionally, the logistics required to loan yourself money isn’t worth the effort. Treat it as an interest-free revolving line of credit

The funds cleared today and I’m not in a negative balance anymore. How would I check if I bought with a margin and how would they charge me interest? Do they automatically take it from the cash funds I already deposited today? I’m still learning about investing so getting charged interest on $50 balance will be a lesson learned haha😅

CMG up this morning after Woodlock House Family Capital fund manager Chris Mayer, author of *100 Baggers: Stocks that Return 100-to-1 and How to Find Them*, announced that he's opened a new position in the company. Mayer holds a somewhat concentrated portfolio of compounders, including several in Canada. Mayer outlined the reasons why he took a stake in the company in an [interview](https://quartr.com/insights/investment-strategy/what-investors-get-wrong-chris-mayer-on-dividends-noise-and-the-power-of-reinvestment) posted after markets closed last Friday. He said: >One stock I bought recently is [Computer Modelling Group](https://quartr.com/companies/computer-modelling-group-ltd_15909), listed in Canada. There is a certain [Constellation Software](https://quartr.com/insights/company-research/constellation-software-acquiring-and-empowering) influence here; Mark Miller is chairman of the board. The largest shareholder is a Constellation board member. And the head of acquisitions is an ex-CSI guy. The CEO, Pramod Jain, gets it. >Early in 2024 they adopted CSI-style compensation, which rewards ROIC + growth and requires part of the bonus to purchase shares in the open market. I love all of this. And then you have a steady, high-return, cash-spinning, moaty software business at the core. They've got lots of room to deploy capital in a big market and grow. >One negative is the dividend. But I'd expect them to cut or do away with the dividend entirely at some point as they ramp up their M&A program. They've only done two so far. The stock sold off heavily after a soft quarter in November, which is a gift for the longer-term shareholders. >So, yeah, this one has the whole package – great incentives, great team, great balance sheet, high returns, lots of room to deploy capital – and now, because of the selloff, a very good valuation to boot. I even like the boring, non-promotional name. It's a sleep-well-at-night investment for me and I expect to own shares for a long time.

E.g. you bought 10 stocks of company A. Stock price of company A on the purchase date= $100 Margin required = 30% If you bought using 100% cash, then you must have invested: 10 × $100 = $1000 If you bought using margin, then you must have invested: 10 × $100 × 30%= $300 Hope that helps. Interest is charged to the margin account directly. Only unregistered accounts have margin available. Registered accounts (TFSA, RRSP, etc) do not have margin available If you are new to investing, then avoid margin trading till you are aware of the risks of investing.

That's interesting. I enjoy reading Mayer's stuff. I am always a little wary of using another unique and successful company when talking about why another one is good. It becomes easier to allow a narrative to drive investment decisions over facts and logic and easier to make excuses when that second company isn't executing. This is a little different though, I guess. He's not saying it's the next CSU, but more saying their's some influence from CSU in it. I do like moaty, high margin software businesses, and I like the switch to push part of an employees bonus needing to be spent on the shares of the company. That's something that CSU has employed to great effect and it really pushes performance as employees are directly benefiting if the company does well. Might explore it a bit more

Exactly - not doing a dividend increase given their current situation would be insane. It would completely contradict their narrative of being well capitalized to address the fine, that the bank is stable, etc. It would be a bone headed move of epic proportion; it COULD still happen but I'm ~85-90% sure they hike even if it's just for the optics. I would legit be shocked if they don't do it, it would crater the price and instantly jeopardize the legitimacy of what the new CEO will inherit.

Canada Post has the mandate to provide services to all parts of the country, including those that are thinly populated and remote. > To make sure that the *allegedly unprofitable* areas of the country still get proper service it may be necessary to provide some subsidies to private operators, who should be selected by competitive bidding. Remote areas are not "allegedly unprofitable", they are very expensive to service, and the subsidy required to maintain service will be substantial. Even if a private contractor is willing to provide the service, there is no guarantee that they will be willing to continue doing so after their contract is up, since costs will continue to rise, and there will be pressure on the government to continue increasing the subsidies. So the rationale for a monopoly is to allow money to be made on profitable areas (high population density), to subsidize the costs of the remote areas. It's not a great system, but the alternative is to leave the remote and thinly populated areas with expensive poor service, or none at all. This problem is not unique to postal service - we have the same issues in providing services such as transportation, energy, water, food, medical support, etc. to remote areas. The costs of doing so are generally greatly in excess of the potential revenue from those regions. And yet, are we as a society prepared to essentially let everyone who's not close to larger population areas essentially become second-class citizens?

If the answer is still no, look at Questrade maybe or National Bank’s direct brokerage. I believe those don’t charge commissions to buy (small ECN fees possible with Questrade). Could be wrong.

I would sell and then Transfer the $2500 per year into the RESP account. Don’t make it confusing for the government. And it takes atleast a month to get your $500

My take (which is probably wrong) is that CDN will get stronger to USD over the next decade once Trudeau is booted. I am buying my US stocks in hedged ETFs now in Canada in CDN, where it doesn't cost me CG tax (RRSP/TFSA). Short term it will probably go lower, but I always leave a little on the table for the other guy.

Big div, should be stable, little growth potential that we know about so needs a fairly big div (and hold its price) for adequate return. Only issue with a company like this is that they have little growth potential but could have bigger downturns if there is a problem with their pipelines (like damage) or if there is some kind of paradigm change in energy down the road that comes sooner than expected. IMO more of a retirement/income stock, and not so much something that you'd want to hold and try to grow for decades.

I use scotia itrade for my RESP. There's a list of free ETFs to buy/sell and it integrates well as I bank with scotia. I just buy VFV in it as I won't be touching it for another 15+ years

Yes I buy XEQT regularly in my RRSP/TFSA/FHSA and have not incurred any fees on QT. I think that it would be the same for RESP.

Interesting. What exactly is the moat? How are they going to compete with CSU? They pick up the scraps that are too small and CSU is not interested in? It's instance to think that CSU was under $10 at one point.

This is a great explanation. Canada has a unique challenge in servicing all Canadians with the size of the country. While a majority of Canadians reside close to the US border in populous places, there are a large number who are not there and still need access to postal services. If competition was allowed to be the only determining factor in providing this service the way some politicians and political supporters want, those unprofitable routes would not be serviced. Canada needs Canada Post. It certainly can be improved but ending the postal monopoly would be detrimental to the country.

>my xeqt beat my self directed stock pick portfolio I don't think you know this that all the "all in one" ETFs are for the novice and beginner investor. You know to get your feet wet in the market. When you have suddenly gained "knowledge" and "Wisdom" to identify those 20% of stocks that outperform the market, you don't need them.

You should be able to transfer the account over, but it's easier to do with cash. I'm with Qtrade though, not Questtrade

Qtrade and Questrade are completely different investing platforms. Just thought I'd point that out.
