m045mgg | Thank you! People really need to get that a covered call / premium-based fund is not giving you a 'fat dividend' but simply providing you with diluted options premium. The fund skims via higher 'active management' MER and retains income generated by the spread between premium collection (e.g., weekly selling) and premium distribution (e.g., monthly payouts). | 1 | Necessary-Shallot976 | 2024-12-02T23:20:17 | null | 1 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h2vyc4/should_i_buy_hmax_umax_for_the_short_term_1314/m045mgg/ | 1 | t3_1h2vyc4 | t1_lzm984q | false | false |

m0488nj | To further add to what everyone else said, the Canadian versions of these “exotic” ETFs are/would be also trash.
I can bet you, if GlobalX had a similar offering it would have a MER that’s at least 50%-60% higher than the American counterpart.
Take the example of LETFs. You have SSO & QLD at NYSE which have a MER of 0.9% and you have HSU & HQU at TSX (both are CAD hedged) which has a MER of 1.5% for the exact same thing! Overpaying by 60% for the same performance is crazy. | 2 | ChickenMcChickenFace | 2024-12-02T23:36:06 | null | 2 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5767e/why_isnt_there_an_etf_like_mags_on_tsx/m0488nj/ | 0 | t3_1h5767e | t3_1h5767e | false | false |
m04ahfb | Thanks for taking the time. My risk tolerance is quite high. I currently do all my non retirement banking with Desjardins and I remember having an old DISNAT account which must be closed by now so I would be familiar with them.

m04d3r2 | Most likely it was written a little confusing as sounded like you were switching from a TFSA to RRSP that threw me
I assume you just wanted to ask about a self directed RESP
Our RESP was with TD Investing they had nothing to do with it in reality until it came to withdraw funds.
Just be aware not a lot of institutions really understand the RESP

m04dibr | MAGS is just 7 stocks not sure why an ETF is necessary for that really. I'm not sure I'd pay someone 0.4% per year just to hold seven stocks but I guess if you have high fees and purchase frequently it can be more convenient I suppose.
TEC.TO is still a technology based ETF with at least a bit of international exposure and far more diversification than MAGS something like 240 holdings not just 7 while still being overweight in those seven.
TECH.TO will also get you what you're looking for but you'd have to add the darling of tech NVDA to it as it doesn't hold it or TSLA. | 3 | TABid-5073 | 2024-12-03T00:07:47 | null | 3 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5767e/why_isnt_there_an_etf_like_mags_on_tsx/m04dibr/ | 0 | t3_1h5767e | t3_1h5767e | false | false |

m04it3k | If your kids don't go to University and you want to get the money out of the RESP or close the account.
The CRA will also want taxes on any earning as they will then consider it not registered
From Sun life website if you do not use the money for education and want to withdraw also they are correct in the last paragraph.
# 4. Close or withdraw money from the RESP
When you close an RESP without using it for your child’s education, you must:
* Pay taxes on the money the investment has earned.
* Return any [**Canada Education Savings Grant**](http://www.canlearn.ca/eng/savings/cesg.shtml) money.
* Note: If a sibling has grant room available, you may be able to use it for their education.
* Return money from a [**Canada Learning Bond**](https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/services/learning-bond.html) to the Government of Canada.
* Note: You cannot transfer it to another child.
“The important thing is to do your research and understand the rules. There’s a lack of knowledge out there and a lot of misinformation,” says Holman. “If you make the full contributions and get a decent rate of return, you could have $50,000.” His advice? “Take the time to learn about how RESPs work.

m04t06t | There is a comment below that I really like but wanted to respond similarly. If the performance has been good, and you’re a self-proclaimed novice, you might want to look beyond just the fees before bailing on your broker and investment.
For sure minimizing fees is great, but you’re talking about some pretty serious money, and you may want to test out self-directed investing before going in guns blazing with your whole retirement account. For example, if VFV tanks 40% what would you do?
Fees suck, but brokers do also help protect you from yourself! | 4 | Whudupbg | 2024-12-03T01:40:45 | null | 4 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h573s7/looking_to_manage_my_own_lira/m04t06t/ | 0 | t3_1h573s7 | t3_1h573s7 | false | false |

m04xhyb | Something like MAGS is probably coming because there are a lot of low information investors who want exposure. It’s the same reason ZEB exists. Like ZEB, it will come at an unnecessarily high MER (probably close to 1% or more), but you can already buy CDRs for all of these companies with no MER.
The “Magnificent Seven” already have significant weightings in VFV (31.6%) and QQC (43.2%). By going with TEC (56.8%) you’re slightly more exposed than with QQC but mostly due to higher weightings to the companies with the highest relative valuations. NVDA, AAPL, and MSFT are more than 1/3 of the TEC ETF.
Since there are only 7 companies you should just buy the CDRs to keep costs low, or buy QQC for relatively low-cost exposure. | 2 | Signal-Lie-6785 | 2024-12-03T02:07:50 | null | 2 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5767e/why_isnt_there_an_etf_like_mags_on_tsx/m04xhyb/ | 0 | t3_1h5767e | t3_1h5767e | false | false |

m04xovx | Bro the big 5 banks have technical issues every so often on their systems, Ive worked there before. Its not going to influence their stock price. People have limited choices of where to move money to in Canada and they all suffer the same issues on the technical side. Sometimes even the branches or backend support systems are down for 2+ days and going into a branch you can only deposit/wdl outside of complex tasks for example.
It’s nothing out of the ordinary. The only thing that drives stock price is their net earnings and revenue growth, which comes from Mortgage, insurance, and investments. These are mostly handled by advisors or backend systems that update once the technical issues are resolved and holds almost no monetary impact to the customer that would in return make the bank lose alot of money. | 24 | jennysonson | 2024-12-03T02:09:01 | null | 24 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5c738/scotiabank_has_been_having_an_epic_meltdown/m04xovx/ | 0 | t3_1h5c738 | t3_1h5c738 | false | false |

m04y7e9 | A few months back I had a meeting with an advisor at Scotia. They didn’t understand how an interest rate was calculated.
They were under the impression that their 2.5% interest account (3months) was calculated based on the timeframe of 3months… sooo actually it was 10% interest provided you relocked in every 3 months for a year…
They also proceeded to sign me up for 2 credit cards without my knowledge.

m050qvw | The interest rate calculations failure is believable but signing you up for 2credit cards “without” your knowledge sounds fake.
If you met with an advisor directly they have to go through multiple documents and system notifications including your signature to approve it. Also opening two cards at once would prompt HR or credit department to reach out to the employee, they have been scrutinizing these actions on account and card openings ever since this issue came up on the news. Now majority (not all)of employees need their reporting manager’s approval before activating cards.
AND IF you truely truely think what youre saying is true then you should immediately report to customers care or their reporting manager at the branch as this is considered a violation of multiple customer protection acts and is an immediate fireable offense if found to be true. | 9 | jennysonson | 2024-12-03T02:27:41 | null | 9 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5c738/scotiabank_has_been_having_an_epic_meltdown/m050qvw/ | 1 | t3_1h5c738 | t1_m04y7e9 | false | false |

m058pz5 | You’ve said everything I needed to hear.
I’d be amazed if residential mortgages even made up 30% of a big bank’s business…measured either by revenue generation or by book value. Having that much exposure in one business line would be highly unlikely from a risk management perspective.
It’s also not going to be their highest margin business either.
Banks have incredibly diverse business segments (not including Retail banking mortgages):
1.) Capital Markets
2.) Wealth Management/Private Banking
3.) Canadian Small Business Banking
4.) Corporate Lending
5.) Commercial Mortgages
6.) Construction/Development Loans
7.) international banking
I’m sure there’s even more I haven’t named. All these areas drive revenue generation. There’s no *need* for a big bank to be so heavily allocated into retail residential mortgages. It doesn’t make sense for business development.
But, you know, you can’t be arsed to back it up. | 5 | Dose_of_Reality | 2024-12-03T03:17:35 | null | 3 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5c738/scotiabank_has_been_having_an_epic_meltdown/m058pz5/ | 4 | t3_1h5c738 | t1_m056ctp | false | false |

Commercial banking, corporate banking and capital markets make exponentially more.

They learned their lesson from the screw up when they retired flightdesk and replaced it with this absolute inferior trade pro. I lost access multiple times today where I couldn't make a trade.
They introduced a few minute auto logout on their web portal which forces you to relogin everytime you need something, and every time you login it kills the trading desk app which didn't have the time out, until you have to login for something else. It's insane and an absolute pita. I would leave if I want married to them. I'm working on it though. Hopefully in a few years I'll be in a position to leave.

I’ve had zero issues other than the odd “down for maintenance” updates which is typical of any online service. | 3 | Stank-Pappy | 2024-12-03T04:06:42 | null | 3 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5c738/scotiabank_has_been_having_an_epic_meltdown/m05g48w/ | 0 | t3_1h5c738 | t3_1h5c738 | false | false |
m05hoam | Thanks for teaching me all that - I'm sure I misremembered whatever had led me to believe what I had originally wrote because I was way off. Now that I've looked it up though -
>Commercial banking, corporate banking and capital markets make exponentially more.
In terms of revenue this part is not true. I'm sure the banks each have different splits, but at least at CIBC, their largest segment of revenue - larger than commercial banking, corporate banking, or capital markets - is their personal and small business segment coming in at 40% of their total revenue. Capital markets by comparison is only 24%. I suspect that a fair amount of the 40% are mortgages, but I don't know how much. Of course there's also LOCs and credit cards in that segment.
Side note though - hope you don't mind me asking - how do you like commercial banking? Can you tell me anything about what its like? | 1 | Spikemountain | 2024-12-03T04:17:23 | null | 1 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5c738/scotiabank_has_been_having_an_epic_meltdown/m05hoam/ | 5 | t3_1h5c738 | t1_m05dexi | false | false |
m05jc2i | I would not count Reddit posts as an accurate survey of how many customers are leaving Scotia and of those how many were going to leave anyways. | 3 | GoofMonkeyBanana | 2024-12-03T04:29:16 | null | 3 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5c738/scotiabank_has_been_having_an_epic_meltdown/m05jc2i/ | 2 | t3_1h5c738 | t1_m058o8j | false | false |
m05jprw | And the ones who can switch easily and the type of people I have seen complaining about issues still don’t sound like big revenue generating individuals. | 5 | GoofMonkeyBanana | 2024-12-03T04:32:03 | null | 5 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5c738/scotiabank_has_been_having_an_epic_meltdown/m05jprw/ | 3 | t3_1h5c738 | t1_m05cncf | false | false |

m05l7zc | Unfortunately true. Context is I signed up for a credit card and a loc so I did go through all the paperwork you detailed but only for the one specific card. They signed me up for 2 more without my knowledge or signature. I did report what happened but haven’t heard anything about it since. | 2 | TendorPendor | 2024-12-03T04:45:34 | null | 2 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5c738/scotiabank_has_been_having_an_epic_meltdown/m05l7zc/ | 2 | t3_1h5c738 | t1_m050qvw | false | false |
m05la3m | All banks and brokerages except IBKR do that. It's usually baked into the conversion rate and not displayed as an actual fee. | 1 | Mobile-Bar7732 | 2024-12-03T04:46:02 | null | 1 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h5163q/wealthsimple_usd_account_vs_conversion_fee/m05la3m/ | 3 | t3_1h5163q | t1_m03l8i4 | false | false |
