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).

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.

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. I believe they don’t charge fees on trades and also no fees if a LIRA has more than 15k but don’t quote me cause I may be remembering wrong.

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 Glad you got the information you needed

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.

Questrade also has self directed RESPs. I recently swot he'd an account from Questrade to Wealthsimple, it was very simple going that way. I doubt QT will be much different. Jump on the chat feature tomorrow and see what they say. WS even covered the fees for me.

I thought the only fee was just returning the grants back to the government, but the money you contribute is still yours, as well as the interest that money gains. Am I mistaken?

Without seeing full financials over the last 5/7 years it is almost impossible to say what the value is of 25% of the business. But net profit margin is usually used to value a restaraunt.

A business is usually worth a multiple of EBITDA or cash flows. Franchises can be worth 3x to 8x EBITDA, depending on the brand and how well the business is performing. Let's say for argument's sake that it is 5x. You buying 25% would be 1.25x.

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. Or, [**find someone who does**](https://www.sunlife.ca/en/find-an-advisor/).” [https://www.sunlife.ca/en/investments/resp/what-happens-if-your-child-doesnt-go-to-university/](https://www.sunlife.ca/en/investments/resp/what-happens-if-your-child-doesnt-go-to-university/)

I am not clear. 5 years net profit for his 25% mean company is valued at 20 year profit. 5 years net profit for the company means his portion is 25%*5=1.25x net profit. The former looks overpriced. The latter is reasonable.

I own a lot (to me) of TEC.TO and it's up 44% in the past 12 months. There's also TUED.TO that covers a lot of tech but also includes some very nice consumer stocks like Costco. That's up 45% in the past 12 months.

It looks reasonable to me. That means 5x profit for the whole business. At this valuation, your return on investment is around 20% which is pretty good. However note that I am making a general comment without looking at exact comps and precedent transactions. But I can at least conclude that he is not trying to screw you.

Not unreasonable but I would stretch the payout over 5 years at least. If something happened to the business in year 2 after the partner left you'd be in a world of hurt. You're not seeing the profit for 5 years,, so neither should he.

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!

The system outage was a nuisance for customers, but the impact on earnings was probably negligible. These stocks are considered by many as yield-plays, so as rates are expected to continue to drop, investors will bid up the prices in search of stable income.

It doesn't even have to affect their future earnings since the stock price rally has been primarily from multiple expansion and not earnings growth. BNS valuation now at historical highs despite earnings being barely above a decade ago. Because of the current valuation, earnings can improve and you can still underperform in BNS

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.

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.

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. BULLISH

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.

I do want to add to my point, I know Reddit is an echo chamber but this for most people is 10x worse than the Roger’s blackout. Everyone is saying how they’re leaving the bank. Everyone on scotiabank subreddits are really angry, and rightfully so. But for real even as we speak, mortgages and credit cards don’t display balance, staff isn’t doing crisis management well at all. I feel like a dip is coming especially considering their international presence is in central/south America. With political uncertainty over tariffs we have no idea how Scotia will fare during this event.

Not really as any withdrawal from a RRSP is classed as Income so you take out $20,000 and it all gets added to your income for the year.

Right. If bad customer experience caused customers to leave Canadian banks, the Big 5 would all be dead and buried. The market knows this means nothing. Aside from that, who can really leave? Depositors are the only non-sticky customers affected by the issue. Depositors are important, sure, but they don’t really drive earnings.

"Everyone is saying they're leaving the Bank". Scotiabank has over 25 million customers. How many on that subreddit? It is a small and vocal group who make up a tiny percentage of actual customers. The number of those complaining that will actually migrate accounts is even smaller so unlikely to have a substantial impact on share price or performance.

I keep hearing stories of people moving in the last week though. Also, the whole BNS story is about to go live on CBC soon as a documentary. Makes me wonder if investors will pull out. I'm actually very close to selling all of my BNS and getting out. At this rate I rather throw that funding I get back on the S&P.

Just checked bmos last Financials, 2 bil of the 8 bil revenue came from the entirety of there Canadian personal and business banking, so already 25% of revenue. So all the branch network and business banking, lending investing, deposits, plus mortgages in the 25%. Residential mtgs under 10% of revenue Makeup better stats next time, takes 2 minutes to see this claim is hot garbage, this information is all public

I'm hearing posts about people leaving and a documentary on the news is going to come out soon. I do think earnings maybe not for this month, but the next quarter will show they did lose more customers than they expected. THEN we will see a bit of a price drop when the earnings don't look as good. One reason I am bailing out of BNS.

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.

All good! You should always set a price you are willing to be ok selling at and then move on. The main thing is you made some profit and that's good enough. I always set a limit where I am good with selling and it's enough of a gain/profit for me to be happy regardless if it jumps even more. Otherwise you will never ever sell haha.

But it's sounding like things are bad now. People have made payments and their systems show nothing was paid. One guy was laughing because his mortgage has disappeared from his account.

It certainly would be a big issue if they actually lost 10%, but it seems unclear how many people will actually switch banks. 10% seems very high to me, as far as possibilities go. Those with mortgages, lines of credit, etc. can't switch very easily, or at least will find it to be a process. The longer people are with banks, the more ties they tend to develop, isn't that usually the case?

It's possible I misunderstood or misinterpreted a slide in the presentation I had seen. But now that you wrote all that, I did actually go to look it up: 40% of CIBC's revenue comes from their personal and small business segment. I didn't look for the details and of course that includes LoCs, credit cards, and fees as well, but I wouldn't be surprised if a fairly large chunk of it were residential mortgages. But yes, evidently not 50% in the end

The problem is you are spreading misinformation. You can't back out of this now that you made the statement. What you should have said is you're assuming/guessing that many of the banks have more than half their revenues come from mortgages. That way when we point out how utterly false that is we don't need to have this conversation.

In not any one of the big 5 banks does personal/residential banking make up a significant portion of total revenues. *That certainly doesn’t mean that these customers are unimportant to us - in fact: our corporate customers might come from personal/wealth management referrals, but their revenues and net RORC numbers are minimal overall. Commercial banking, corporate banking and capital markets make exponentially more. The same cannot be said for credit unions, treasury banks, etc. Source: Commercial banker at a Big 5.

Personal/retail banking is such a minimal factor of revenues that a few thousand people leaving with their net worth wouldn’t register a noticeable drop in revenues. If system errors impacted commercial/corporate clients: that would be different.

Last time I looked Scotia broke out the segments in three 1. Capital markets 2. Domestic banking 3. International banking. I'm pretty sure it's similar at the other big 4. I also believe TD likes to sell off their mortgage to eliminate the risk.

Scotia is revamping all their portals and apps. They've been running the two in parallel to work out the kinks. 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. But I'm not a usual user and I'm sure a casual user may not care.

I’ve been with scotia and their iTRADE platform for years. I’ve had zero issues other than the odd “down for maintenance” updates which is typical of any online service.

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?

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.

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.

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.

All banks and brokerages except IBKR do that. It's usually baked into the conversion rate and not displayed as an actual fee.
