I understand a home bias towards Canada may help lower volatility, but I'm curious what would be the bullish case for Canadian equities to outperform? Outside of the US market, Canadian equities aren't cheap by any means. Unless there's another commodity supercycle I can't imagine how our market will outperform any time soon.

About 92% of my (TFSA) portfolio is VEQT. The other 8-ish% is yolo'd into a couple individual companies for fun. I know that VEQT and XEQT track very closely to one another despite having somewhat different allocations, so I'm wondering if there would be any tangible benefit to purchasing XEQT with my next few contributions as opposed to continuing to load up on VEQT. Both are set it and forget it ETFs because they're nicely diversified within themselves, but would there be any functional upside to further diversifying between the two baskets?

I have been appointed as executor of an estate that includes a TFSA and a non sheltered Canadian open account. There are about 20 different GICs in these two accounts at different interest rates and maturity dates. The statements I have show a quantity, market price, book cost, and market value for the statement end date. I have no experience with GICs sold by a broker like RBC DI. Are these things bought and sold like bonds? Do you sell them anytime at market price? Is the gain a capital gain, and interest is only realized if you hold them to maturity? The reason I ask is that I have to put a value on the investments at the date of death. Since these statements do not coincide with the date of death, is there some way to determine the value of these individual GICS on the data of death. Would RBC DI be able to provide those numbers, or do I have to go back to each issuer of the GICs? I also have to complete a T1 for the deceased based on date of death as well as a T3 Trust for the gains made in the estate post date of death. Any information you can provide on how these GICs are bought, sold, and valued would be helpful.

Scenario: My wife is 63, I'm 53. We're looking at retiring in two years. We both have public sector jobs we joined relatively recently, so will have a bit of a pension but not full pension (probably about $30K a year total). We'll have CPP of course. We currently make about $200K total before taxes. We have about 400K in TFSA, 600K in RRSP, 500K in non-reg--so around 1.5mil total. If this were you, what would your portfolio look like for the next two years before retirement? And what would your portfolio look like during retirement?

Hey guys!! I just started investing and created my first portfolio. Woo! Im on Blossom social as @juju.jara btw :) Anyway, I’d like an easy way to ser my portfolio percentages before I make the purchases. Like adding $x amount to a stock/etf to preview how much that will change my portfolio percentages. With Blossom I can see this after I make the purchases as it shows me my portfolio in real time, but I would like to be able to preview so I could make better decisions. How do u guys do it??? Google sheets? Notion? Any other ideas? I’d love to see this feature in Blossom but doesn’t seem like it’s there yet. Thank you!! :)

Every year you get an additional 5k-7k room at the mercy of the government, which isn’t that much for DCA. Without rebalancing the portfolio, what’s your strategy to get some extra cash within TFSA? I can think of a couple, from low to high risks: 1. Buy and hold high dividend stocks/ETFs. But the growth likely underperforms the market. 2. Sell covered calls. This requires some efforts to not have your shared called away. 3. Short term trading high volatility stocks or leveraged ETFs and hoping CRA ignores you. 4. Gamble long options.

I apologize if this has been asked a million times. I have money that I want to protect as it will eventually be used to purchase a house. In the meantime, I have been bouncing it around to different HISA promos. Obviously those options are becoming limited and I am curious what the current risk would be of investing it in CASH.TO? I cannot do a GIC as I may need access to it if a house pops up. Is it worth investing in since the promotions are disappearing? Is there a better/safer option that I haven't thought of? I appreciate any help 🙏

I've done very well with CCL so far and was surprised to see it off 4% today. It did have its 3rd quarter earnings call but after listening to all the positive results over last year and last quarter I could not figure out what caused such a sharp decline. This is definitely a growth play as its meagre 1.4% dividend is nothing to write home about. I am up 34% and I would buy more on this dip but it already makes up 3% of my portfolio which is where I like to keep it. Any thoughts on what I am missing?

I just joined and I love the visuals, however, I'd also like a way to simulate how my chart will look with new allocations (before I actually buy the new shares) I know many people use google sheets for pie charts and manually add things there. Is there a good template you recommend for sheets or any other easier tools? I also looked up google finance but they only show the blocks chart and it doesn't show percentages... Basically, I want to preview how much % or my portfolio an ETF will be if I buy x shares more. Does that make sense? :) [https://www.blossomsocial.com](https://www.blossomsocial.com)

Most of my portfolio is in VBAL. I'm getting quite worried about the risk of CAD plummeting further against the USD. I'm seeing that at least 2 of the major holdings of VBAL are CAD hedged. Am I correct in thinking that that this would be a poor choice if the CAD continues to drop? Should I be looking for non-hedged alternatives?

Since June, his Brookfield shareholdings have risen fivefold, to 33 million shares.

Admittedly I have not studied the stock market as much as the average participant in this subreddit. I have been googling "TSE L + reddit" and similar terms repeatedly over the past few months to only end up re-reading the same r/loblawsisoutofcontrol discussions ad nauseam. In my limited research I have not seen any stock chart as reliably make waves as I see this one YTD. Has anyone else taken advantage of this, buying low and selling high? I understand past performance is not to be expected to repeat in the future but this stock has done sharp $5-10 jumps ups and drop downs so seemingly predictably in the recent past that even someone as unknowledgable as myself was able to make $200 in a week. (26 shares, Oct 22-30) It just seems ripe for an easy payday. Also the business appears to be headed in a relatively good direction for the forseable future, no? Please enlighten me.

From Google AI Overview search: Vanguard S&P 500 Index ETF (VFV.TO) is not CAD hedged:  * **Explanation** VFV is a non-currency hedged ETF that tracks the S&P 500 index, which is made up of U.S. stocks. This means that the value of VFV is affected by the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar (USD) and the Canadian dollar (CAD):  * When the USD strengthens against the CAD, VFV gains value.  * When the CAD strengthens against the USD, VFV loses value.  Because CAD is pretty low at $0.71, is it more likely it will go up than down?

Hey all. Wondering what your thoughts are on the various CAD dividend ETFs. Looking to create a position in my non-registered. Not interested in having people tell me to buy XEQT or prioritize total returns. I have a heavy growth position already in my TFSA and RRSP. Looking for long-term stability and moderate recurring income from this strategy. I've looked at most/all of the Blackrock and Vanguard options. CDZ appeals to me most so far: companies that continually increase their dividend _should_ indicate good governance. But, want to hear opinions on the more common options e.g. VDY, XDIV, or even a total market TSX etf. Thank you.

Hi, I run my own business and each time I'm paid I put the correct amount into my savings account for taxes and to pay the quarterly remittance. The other day I started to realize that the money is doing nothing for almost 6 months of the year. Was trying to think of a way to make it work for me. My idea so far is to pay the quarterly remittances out as fast as possible and then put the remaining into a GIC until tax season. Any other ideas? Thanks

I am curious if RRSP deductions only count against your marginal tax rate or if it moves with income tax brackets? Example but not real tax brackets Say your income is 200,000 and marginal tax rate is 42%. You contribute enough money into the rrsp to lower down to the next bracket. Does the remaining rrsp contribution amount now get a tax savings at the lower tax bracket ?

Hi there all. I’m 24 years old and fairly new to investing, I’ve only had a BMO advisor managed TFSA invested in a mutual fund in the past. Which I have since withdrawn all my funds from. I am looking to max out my TFSA and leave it long term invested 100% in VFV to start. Is Wealthsimple the best platform for me to go about this? How do I setup my TFSA and invest with it through Wealthsimple? Any insight is greatly appreciated!

Looking to do something with a portion of my Canadian savings ($10,000). It’s likely not to grow, as I live in the USA now (permanent resident) and don’t make money in Canada. I wanted to opened a TFSA, but that doesn’t seem great as I am taxed in the US. What are some safe options that will grow over time? I am new to this. I have some bitcoin.

Hi all, I have around $150k, which will have to go into my non registered accounts. Anyone with any experience can share the best way to handle this ? I was at first thinking of having BCE, ENB, T, etc, But I was wondering if there are any ETFs; EIT, VDY that are “eligible dividends” to avoid the tax messes at end of year. Help me out. Thanks

With the recent market swings, I’ve managed to hit $100k in assets in my TFSA. I started contributing yearly from 18 and 5 years later at age 23 I hit $100k. It may sound like I’m here just to boost my ego (and maybe I am), but more importantly I’m looking for advice. Tbh I definitely feel these gains are mostly a result of some crazy luck. I doubled some money early in covid on the advice of buying oil etf as the economy rebounded. But more recently, I just finished a degree in computer science and seeing the impact of AI in academia, I invested heavily in tech and well it’s paid off. You can guess most the names, NVDA, PLTR, AAPL, RDDT. These aren’t all AI but I also just believe heavily in tech. Combined with a few option plays, my gains this year exploded. While the snowball effect seems to be doing me well. I’m unsure about how I should proceed to invest. If I play it conservatively and just accumulate a moderate SP 500 return this could be plenty of money in 30 years. But on the other hand I love investing (at least right now lol) and it’s very exciting to think where this could go if I continue to take some “risks”. I’m definitely having a some euphoria and would love to hear some grounding perspectives.

If I take money out of my tfsa, does that mean I’ve lost that room for investing? No, if you take money out of your Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA), you do not permanently lose that contribution room. The amount you withdraw is added back to your contribution room, but this happens the following calendar year. For example, if you withdraw $5,000 from your TFSA in 2024, your contribution room for 2025 will increase by that $5,000, in addition to any new contribution room provided for 2025. Just ensure you don’t over-contribute in the same year you make a withdrawal, as that can lead to penalties.

I know the common advice is probably to just go with XEQT and call it a day, but I’m more interested in exploring the wide range of ETFs available in the US market for my RRSP. Specifically, ETFs like SCHD and SCHG don’t really have direct Canadian counterparts (I can expand on why I think they are valuable in the comments) , so I was thinking that since RRSPs aren’t subject to the 15% withholding tax on US dividends, it makes sense to use the RRSP to get exposure to these US-based ETFs. My personal goal with the RRSP is long-term—I’m not planning to touch this money for 20-30+ years, ideally. So here’s the allocation I’ve been considering: * **30% SCHD**: This will form the foundation of my retirement dividend income, and I plan to increase this allocation as I get older. * **30% SCHG**: This will help tilt the portfolio towards growth. * **40% (XEQT/VT/VOO)**: I haven’t decided yet between these as my core position, but I want it to be a broad market index fund to ground the portfolio. I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been down this road and opted for USD-denominated ETFs in their RRSP. What’s your allocation like, and do you have any concerns or advice based on your experience? \*\* EDIT: Title Should've been "What's Your USD ETF Allocation in the RRSP"

I have generally held a pretty negative view of RRSP's, especially for younger people. You get the tax break now but, say that account increases by 10 times by the time you retire, now you are on the hook for a lot of tax. But been rethinking it a bit. I am looking at about 350K in capital gains this year (I am 33) so the 40k I could contribute to an RRSP, in addition to my FHSA contribution would be a big tax break. TFSA is maxed out and in GIC's. My returns in the coming years will likely be all over the place, but I could have some way bigger years (based on compounding) and maybe a few years of zero returns. My plan would be to make withdrawals from the RRSP if I have a few bad years and deposit on my higher earning years. I also see that you can take 60K out for purchasing a home if you pay it back within 15 years, which seems like an o.k option as well. I have no short-term plans to buy real estate as I think the market is overvalued locally, but in the long term it might make sense to plant the seeds now, especially as a principal home is tax free when I sell it. I am also thinking in the future I have no idea what government policy will be so there may be future advantages to have an RRSP that there are not now. Or are there any other benefits that I am missing out on? The big disadvantage is I can't leverage my returns for the money I deposited like I could in my non-registered account. Which will be a big loss, but I am taking risk off the table I guess. I would put the money in GIC's. I should note my investing style usually doesn't depend on market direction and usually I should do better in a falling market. Not buying NVIDA, or anything. Thoughts?

I've been advised to balance out my portfolio (I currently own VTI, VEQT and VXUS) by adding a bond into the mix. I've heard that both VAB and BND are good options. I understand that VAB is a Canadian bond vs BND is US. I've heard that BND will most likely offer higher returns, but I've read mixed reviews on both and am really on the fence about which option is best for me... any thoughts?

Probably a dumb post. I think I know the answer. RESP allocation is $2500/year. If I were to contribute say 10-20k now. I know the government will only give me $500 top up in the account. If for example next year (2025) I did not contribute anything. Would they still top me another $500 - or is the answer no, not until I contribute the minimum of $2500.

Given the exchange rate and the upcoming Trump shenanigans, I'm debating on what to do with this bonus. It's currently worth about $105k CAD and will vest next month. It's not invested, just cash sitting in a Fidelity account, would you let it ride on the USD account, or bring it home to Canada? In a lump sum or all at once... This is a new situation for me.

IEFA vs VXUS, VEU, IXUS or others? Unfortunately, I have a ton of different holdings in my RRSP and they are generally North American biased. Would like to start rotating to address this. Without including niche ETFs and individual stocks here are my biggest holdings: ITOT 23.9% (US total stock market) IEFA 8.24% (EX Ca and US) IEMG 3.81% (Emerging markets) [XAW.TO](http://XAW.TO) 3.21% (World ex canada) SCHD 2.91% (US dividend) [ZLB.TO](http://ZLB.TO) 2.77% (Canada low volatility) [ZDV.TO](http://ZDV.TO) 2.58% (Canada dividend) I was reading some other posts and didn't see IEFA mentioned but wondering about focusing on trying to build that up to >25% over the next few years. Alternatives I came across were VXUS, VEU and IXUS do any of these have clear advantages over IEFA? My target for IEMG is 5% or > but due to outperformance by some individual stocks my percentage allocations are a bit of a mess. At one point I had intended to have 70% ETF, 30% individual stocks but not even close to that target.

So with leaving money in the company I am wanting to invest it vs sitting there doing nothing, From what I found online Capital gains are taxed on 66% of the gains. So at what tax rate is the 66% taxed at? Is it the corporate tax rate at the end of the year ?

Hi guys, My husband and I just started investing and he opened and account with wealth simple, and I was going to open with questrade. He funded his wealthsimple acc with no issues from scotiabank. I on the other hand had my e-transfer blocked and scotiabank calling me saying my transfer was blocked because this email has been flagged as scam or fraud. (questrade email that requests the e-transfer) To be honest my ONLY reason to open with questrade and not wealth simple, was for us to have our investments with different companies (kind of like not putting all eggs in one place idea) for safety. Is this silly? Should I just go with wealthsimple? Another reason was that I was planning to invest in USD but somethings changed and I don't think I will, so if I'm only buying Canadian ETFs etc... should I still open with questrade? I'm with them for one day and already having a headache :/

Occupations: DND. 1 full indexed pension in 2026 (35 years) current salary 125k, 2nd indexed pension 25 years (2025) current salary 90000. RRSPs maxed (limited due to pension) TFSA maxed Emergency fund Non Reg (under 100k) HISA 60k Funds and accounts currently with Wood Gundy however beginning to transfer TFSAs to Wealth Simple to take advantage of Apple offer and gain more direct control of funds with lower rates/fees. Planning to retire in two years. Option(s) to pay off mortgage full/partial which would deplete some funds (TFSA, some HISA) or rate dependant, keep funds earning more than mortgage rate. If considering an ETF, is there one in particular which leans towards our situation?

I’m 21 and make about 3400$ a month. I have 48k invested and 34k cash sitting in my td account. I am very fortunate to be in a situation where I don’t pay rent, only bills and other expenses so I’m only spending about 300-500$ a month. I’m not too sure how aggressive I should be with my investing. I would like to mostly put it into XEQT on a recurring buy but also have some left over to choose certain stocks I like. I’m also looking to buy a car soon so I want to keep a decent amount of cash on hand. Any insight is appreciated.

I saw a few other posts related but not sure if there are new updates when choosing a Canada Life fund through an employer matching program. Currently invested in the Cadence 2055. I have the option for International Equity (TDAM) but I was wondering about the US Index Registered (Mckenzie). Any advice? (I'm mid 30's - wanting to retire by 50 ish but not planning to touch this fund until 60-65). I have been with a few employers now with Canada Life and have noticed the varying fee structures and a lack of transparency as the fee on the fund is not even close to the same charged on my account. Mer currently appears to be 1.03% (Cadence 2055). I recognize the fees will always be higher than self investing (currently with Questrade for everything else) - at this time with my employer I can't move the funds unless someone knows of a work around? Thanks in advance!

Can someone please explain to me why .to stocks perform better than their US counterpart when the Canadian dollar goes down and worse when it goes up? For example qqc.to and vfv.to did better than qqq and voo over the last year as CAD/USD went down but today specifically they are doing worse as CAD/USD is up a bit. I think I kind of understand but hoping someone can provide a bit more clarity.

Hello I’m 23 and want to make money I have very little experience with the market but I know my way around Wealthsimple. I’m not the type of person to do research as I don’t know what I’d be researching so I’m asking help figuring out what stocks would be best for me. I’m OK with high risk like the dividends, but I also likes the idea of buying holding for a couple years or three and then selling, I would like to know what would be good for retirement if anybody is able to help it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

So I’m opening a TFSA account with WS which I will be maxing out and investing mostly in XEQT. However, I also want to invest some money outside of my TFSA in FBTC, QQQ and possibly RKLB when the price is right. What type of account would be most sensible to open for these investments. RRSP or non registered account? RRSP would be best if I’m not mistaken, as the money I contribute in this account is tax deductible but am I still able to invest in everything I would like to? I’m a little bit confused about the entire thing still. Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Last week I bought DLR.U.TO to begin Norbert’s Gambit. I am now waiting for my shares to journal over to DLR.TO to then sell and complete the conversion. However, I’m down a lot right now because the stock price has dropped from $14.40 to $14.32. I don’t know if I can justify this loss but I am scared it’ll get worse if I leave it for too long. I knew there was always *some* risk involved in Norbert’s Gambit, but the USD has only changed by like a cent and I don’t understand why this huge change has occurred. From everything I’ve read, most people say this is a pretty safe option. Did I do something wrong?

Playing with 10k. Looking to take a risk at some serious gain. Any ideas? I am not setup for USD just Canadian stocks. Rather throw it in here than into a slot machine. It is profit money and money i am willing to risk. Happy to tip if someone knowledgeable throws me a tip that pays some return. Cheers!

My current investment situation is that I have $22K invested in TD902. I plan to invest another $30K by the end of the year, aiming to max out my TFSA contribution limit as soon as possible. I know this might not sound very balanced, but based on my research comparing Canadian funds, government bonds, and global funds, U.S. index funds have been the best performers overall. However, once my TFSA is maxed out, I wonder what my investment plan’s next step should be. Should I continue value investing, focusing on index funds until retirement, withdrawing everything, and relying on GIC interest for retirement income? Or should I start investing in high-dividend funds or stocks to increase cash flow?

38 M with a partner 37 F. We both have good jobs and are earning in the range of 400k together per year at the moment and have saved up a lot in the last 10 years. Currently we live in Downtown Toronto, pay about 3k per month in rent. We own a rental property in Ontario that pays for itself at the moment. The mortgage amount left is 265k. We have a managed portfolio from RBC that has now accumulated to ~270k, MER is about 0.98%, since we both have busy jobs and were new to investing we started that a few years ago and we continue to contribute to it each month and we have a total of 120k in RRSP together. I do my own investing on the side (about 25k), mostly in ETFs and a few tech stocks (Nvidia, Oracle, Meta, Microsoft). We have a few GICs that matured from last 2 years that amount to about 150k in total. At the moment I moved them to Wealthsimple Cash (got premium) and its current interest is 3.75%. We have an emergency fund account of 50k separate, that we are likely going to keep it as is. I am looking to see what are some of best ways to use that 150k. Should I put it back into RBC managed portfolio or should I put them in ETFs. If I put it in ETFs, is this a good time to put them or should I wait a few more months. We have no big plans for a year, but the end of next year we want to start looking to buying a car and a house to start a family. Thank you!

If you had the capital for a down payment for a rental property, would you get into that market or put it into a REIT ETF with DRIP and regular contributions (or something similar) to avoid the headaches associated with being a landlord. Thanks! [View Poll](https://www.reddit.com/poll/1guz624)

I am considering withdrawing from RRSP way before retirement. Although I have maximized my RRSP contributions, I am contemplating whether investing in a non-registered account might be more beneficial despite the immediate tax benefits of RRSP contributions going forward. With my early withdrawal plan, am I better off not investing in RRSP. Or is there something I’m missing?

I am likely re-locating to the USA in the new year and will have to transfer my pension of roughly $120k to a LIRA. The investment horizon is roughly 20 years. I am torn between doing the guided portfolio at EJ or investing it all in an etf like XEQT. I get the vibe that EJ is just charging me money to put me in some of the same funds I can put myself in for a fraction of the cost on WS. Am I missing something? Anyone have advice on this?

Hi all, I'm 47 years old and I have a fairly sizable RRSP account with TD direct investing. I'm looking to move my money away from it and into another trading platform. to avoid the commissions. I currently have a Wealthsimple account for my TFSA and I was thinking of transfering my RRSP there. But....is that the best idea, given that the amount of money is fairly sizable (I don't really want to say how much but it's above average given my age). Are there better options for that amount of money? Opinions welcome. I don't trade THAT often, but I would't say it's uncommon. Maybe a dozen times a year? My portfolio is almost exclusively ETFs, but I may want to trade some stocks, who knows? How easy is it to change my mind, i.e. transfer the money to another trading paltform? It's presumbaly as easy as it is to transfer my money TO Wealthsimple, but if anyone has any differing ideas... Thanks for any insight.

I know they had fallen out of favour because interest rates were “high” for a while and nobody wanted to go back to the office so the future was looking bleak for REITs. How are they now? Does anyone have any suggested reading materials? Since rates have come down I feel that their cash-flows would have improved and they may potentially be a more attractive buy now. Before you say it, I don’t care for XEQT in this situation.

Hi everyone, I am currently holding [TEC.TO](http://TEC.TO) AND [QQC.TO](http://QQC.TO) , but they are not as aggressive as I thought and I am not very satisfied with their returns, may I know if there are better aggressive CAD ETF alternatives? Btw, I do not want any leveraged ETF like [HQU.TO](http://HQU.TO), they are not meant for long term holdings. CAD ETF is preferable, but if you have USD ETF suggestion, will also be much appreciated! Thank you all!
