They are both remarkably low in price and offer mouth watering yields. I doubt if they will offer long term growth but locking dividend yields close to 8% is a decent opportunity provided the price does not plummet any more. if memory serves me right, up to 48K of dividend income from qualified Cana...

tax

I am doing my taxes and although I have good interest with Wealthsimple and other moneymarket accounts I am getting killed on taxes. Where are people parking money, and what return does it pay, that is more tax efficient. e.g, return on capital vs interest or other schemes

I did this year get a T3 form from TDWaterhouse for money I have in they're US Money Market fund in my US TD cash account.

So I own Draftkings stock and was waiting for the earnings report to drop on February 15th, but literally a minute before they even released the earnings publicly, it dropped 12% in seconds. What would cause that? Is that someone who owns a huge amount of stock selling?

td

Did a search and realize no one posted a TD thread before so I will start one. It's been dipping particularly hard lately. Today for example, every other bank name goes up but TD is down. Yield close to 5%. I believe it's still the second best bank when it comes to customer experience (RBC is the be...

I read all the reviews I can get my hands on, but thought I'd ask here too. Never used it. CIBC seems to tick a few boxes for me both on the banking and investing side (I do most things with TD right now). I don't really have huge requirements. Norbert's gambit has to be easy/not require waiting on ...

resp

Have our family RESP at national bank direct brokerage. Have 2 kids under the family RESP plan and contributed a lump sum ($2500 for both) on Dec 27/28th last year (about a week ago). I am now thinking it might have been better to contribute the full $5000 to my older kids RESP since she is 7 and I ...

transfer

I transferred my stocks to Disnat (Desjardins Online Brokerage) about two years ago. I requested reimbursement transfer fee, but Disnat told me they did not charge transfer-out fee, so they did not reimburse transfer-in fee. I transferred out my stocks to another institution recently for my personal...

As a retiree with a RRIF I frequently want to transfer cash from my RRIF to live on and Itrade makes it a real pain.

Hello Fellow RFD'ers! My minor children will be receiving a monetary gift from their grandparents - approx $50k each. What's the most beneficial way to invest this money so that I'm not having to pay taxes on their gains/interest? I've already made RESP contributions annually so they have received t...

For the last decade, I've maintained the recommended 2:1 US/Canada asset allocation as recommended by the Canadian Couch Potato. eg. for every $1 in VCN, I'll have $2 invested in XAW. The one thing I never followed was to have a bond component as a ...

Looking to see if anyone has any recommended reading / resources for judging the performance of funds. Context of the question is that I have an RRSP and TFSA at an investment firm split between two of their funds. I was planning on opening an FHSA with them once available when I was struck by the s...

Has anyone had a look at the new ETFs started by BMO just a few weeks ago on Oct 2? Press release as linked . The one in particular is ZUEA : BMO US Equity Accelerator Hedged to CAD ETF The way I am reading the materials, it seems to imply: This ETF will give you 2x the upside of S&P 500. But wh...

I have never set up Drips on any stocks I have owned, so don't know much about how they might work. I know that in a taxable account, it can create a pain keeping track of acbs, especially if there are frequent dividend or distributions. Being in retirement, we draw these distributions for living ex...

Just thought I'd start a separate thread on this here on this, as its probably a broadly overlooked stock. First off, at todays price of $25.65, you're getting a dividend of ~6.5% The dividend is growing (was raised just last quarter). Earnings and revenue, ex-COVID write-offs continue to grow There...

Be careful of this, 2% fee per crypto trade. 2.5% fee per fx exchange. if you trade or exchange 10,000, you immediately lose $200-250 per transaction. Big banks start to look better

So, I'm not going to get into the details but lets say hypothetically that all of a sudden you received an inheritance of around $250,000-$300,000. What would you do? I'm not going to get into the details of my financials however I will say I have 0 debt (other than a mortgage) and was strongly deba...

why

I've heard it said many times, by even smart investors like Warren Buffet, that one should just buy the S&P500 and can expect good returns over a long time span. However looking at the lost decade of 2000-2010, it's disturbing to see that you end up with negative returns even with reinvested div...
