You can have more than one broker, but as you can see, I kinda forget where I put my money and the login/pass for the accounts...Plus someone told me estate planning would be a nightmare because I have 8 institutions looking to nickel and dime me. I'm going for National Bank and Disnat next. Don't do what I do, but the best guy in the game now is probably Desjardin's Disnat from what I'm reading on RFD - no commissions for anything on NYSE/TSX, no journaling fee for Norbert's Gambit (NBDB has this), Disnat would also have the research that I'd miss, but never read, from shutting down TD. IBKR is great for foreign market access and exotic products. Once/if I consolidate the 10 brokerages, I'm definitely keeping IBKR and one or or both (probably both) of the Québecers (Disnat/National Bank), and Scotia. I'm a financial polygamist/haremist except I'm no longer going to be paying any fees. I have similar amounts of bank accounts and credit cards =/...

The net asset value of the newly offered Class A units and Class F units of PSA will be set (and is expected to remain fixed) at $10.00 per unit from and after the Effective Date. Class A units and Class F units of PMT currently trade at above $50.00 and will therefore receive additional units of PSA upon merger. To achieve a fixed $10.00 net asset value, interest will be accrued and be reflected in the investor’s account through the record keeper and will be paid out on the distribution payment date. If the unitholder redeems his or her units prior to the distribution payment date, the accrued distribution will be paid out prior to the settlement of the redemption. Additionally, immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger, PMT will declare a distribution on its Class A units and Class F units, which will be payable in cash or in units, based on the election of the holder. Further, as the Merger will be implemented on a tax-deferred basis, the cost base per unit of the new Class A units and Class F units of PSA to such holders is expected to be higher than $10.00 fixed price of the PSA units such holder will receive on the Merger.

With TD, I always have to keep 20-30k to avoid the $2-0-30/month per account/business I have. I have a personal account at Scotia and NBC and Desjardins credit cards, but never tried their trading. I know they offer $0 trades, but as you said, I was just trying to avoid a nightmare in case something happened to me, or even just managing TFSA limits, etc

So for IBKR, I know they pay 3.83% on idle USD cash and 3.66% on CAD. If I buy some HSUV.U can I get in and out like trading a regular stock or do I have to keep a certain number of time not to lose the interest?

Is buying HSUV.U through IBKR, much more risky, in case of a world crisis, as opposed to keeping idle cash in IBKR or a buying through a big Bank?

Key Features of HSUV.U:
• Enhanced Savings Potential: HSUV.U invests substantially all of its assets in
high- interest U.S. dollar deposit accounts with one or more Canadian chartered
banks, which provide a higher interest rate than a traditional savings account with
no minimum holding periods
• Daily Liquidity: HSUV.U is an ETF, so it can be purchased or sold any time throughout
the trading day. This is a key advantage versus other high interest savings vehicles,
which typically have minimum holding periods or investment amounts
• Tax Efficiency: HSUV.U is not expected to make taxable distributions, which should
enhance the after-tax performance of HSUV.U versus other cash savings vehicles
• Continuous Reinvestment: Net interest income from the high interest savings
accounts are reflected in HSUV.U’s NAV daily
Although HSUV.U primarily invests in bank deposit accounts, HSUV.U is not covered by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation,
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government deposit insurer.

How is my IB Canada account protected?
The Canadian Investor Protection Fund (CIPF) is sponsored by the Canadian regulator (IIROC) to ensure client assets held by a Canadian investment dealer are protected if a member firm becomes insolvent. IB Canada is a member of the CIPF which offers insurance against member default for amounts up to CAD 1,000,000. Covered assets include cash, securities and commodities and will depend on the account type:

Non-registered accounts (Cash, Margin, TFSA)

1,000,000 CAD for any combination of cash, securities and commodities under all non-registered account types.
For assets held in a joint account or under a corporation, the percentage interest is added towards the same total.

Registered account (RSP)

RSP accounts are treated as "Separate Account" and are eligible for an additional 1,000,000 CAD coverage. Additional details can be found on www.cipf.ca.

Please note, IB Canada accounts receive CIPF protection in lieu of SIPC protection.

Kaplano wrote: ↑To follow up on my prior post, specifically, this is the part that I'm not sure that I understand completely:
If I'm understanding this correctly, PMT shares will be converted to Class A and Class F shares of PSA, and PSA shares of these classes will have a floor market value of $10.00?

What class are the existing shares of PSA?

And will the existing shares of PSA continue to have a floor market value of $50.00? It seems that the answer is yes, but I'm wondering what you all think.

For non-registered, before I used to buy/sell HSAV, now I buy/sell CASH.

X360 wrote: ↑ It is very easy as we know exactly the price we should buy/sell.
You could see that we could predict earlier that the CSAV price will be $50.21 on Jan 24 and will reset back to $50 tomorrow on ex-dividend date Jan 25.

Basically, wait for fund company announces the distribution for the current month and the ex-dividend date.
+ One day before ex-dividend date, sell at price = $50 + distribution (or minus one cent if you can't sell it at distribution price)
+ On the ex-dividend date, buy at price = $50 (or plus one cent if you can't buy it at $50).

Note: if the ex-dividend date is one day before or after the weekend / holidays break then we have to readjust the price as it will increase few cents for those days.
