Goddammit, I just rebalanced my accounts like two weeks ago after making a hefty (for me) cash deposit too.

I don't have VUN in my portfolio right now, but I just got a 40% raise and I will be "diversifying" my VXC with some VUN tomorrow morning.

Are the markets even down? CAD is down relative to USD, which means VXC is probably up this morning. Forbe's says "World Markets Plunge, Then Steady, on Trump Victory". I mean, sure, I was pissed last night when he won and thought I would be worth a lot less today, wishing I had of sold it all yesterday to re-buy today (irrational thinking as it may be), but it doesn't even seem to be the case. I bet my portfolio is up today (mostly due to CAD). Rick Rickshaw fucked around with this message at 14:47 on Nov 9, 2016 |

Guest2553 posted:we'll find out together. Nothing makes sense anymore. Another win for the buy-and-hold school of thought, I suppose, but if you're the sort of person who has enough assets for this to be a concern then you're probably going to do alright regardless. On the other hand, 2 year is probably enough time for a republican senate, house, presidency, and supreme court to replicate the kansas experiment nation-wide and this could be the mother of all bull traps. e. vvvvvv come on dude don't take away the Guest2553 fucked around with this message at 22:58 on Nov 9, 2016 |

Well, it kind of proves the market isn't as terrified of Trump as we thought. poo poo could still hit the fan though, but that is always true regardless of who happens to be sitting in the Oval Office. edit: VXC up another 1% today. If I had of known Trump was going to win, I would have sold and missed out on these gains.

Jeez you guys aren't kidding. My original plan was to raise my portfolio from $15k to $20k before the end of the year (same as the amount remaining in my student loan), but I decided to add an extra $3k before October into US and world e-series. My plan was to start off 2017 with my TFSA having the same principal as my student loan and see if I could beat its after-tax rate within a year. Instead, I've already beaten it with my purchases sprinkled in since May. Wow. (I hope that makes sense).

He can't start doing any real damage until January anyway. My holdings in VFV are up more than they've ever been in the last 2 years right now.

I'm banking on something happening with a fed announcement q1 2017, which should hopefully force BOC to move their hand 2017 could be a good year for some instability with trump getting sworn in, and 2 serious euro elections

Stocks are now pricing in expected economic impacts that can be extrapolated from trump's policies, including infrastructure spending. Construction materials stocks that sell into the us were all up 15-30% over the last couple days, as an example, even though it will take over a year for any policy to result in s change in dollars on the ground.

My gut feeling is that his isolationist economic and political policies are inflationary so the uptick in prices is based on a less valuable USD rather than the expectation of newly created value.

Are TD e-funds still the best deal for index mutual funds? Is opening an account as annoying as I've heard it is? My SO will be looking to set up a retirement account soon and she is pretty averse to having to deal with using a brokerage to buy ETFs so I'm looking for good mutual fund options.

They are good for people that do consistent contributions on a pay period basis because there is no buy fee. If you can do lump sum you can use vanguard etf's on instead that have near zero MER.

I haven't had a good experience with TD, I'd personally go straight to ETFs, lump sums or not. There is a bit of added complexity to purchasing ETFs vs mutual funds but you only have to worry about it a few times a year.

poo poo poo poo poo poo. I just got a letter from the CRA addressed to my ex-girlfriend. First of all, no, I didn't hold it up to the light to see what was inside. But I did incidentally see the words "period under review" quite clearly when I looked at who it was addressed to. So I'm guessing this is an audit, which sucks because I just realized she didn't claim any of the Airbnb income she earned (a few grand) when she was living at my place for a time. Otherwise she should be squeaky clean. What should she do? I want to have something to tell her when I give her the letter and tell her what I think is inside.

I'm glad the relationship is over, but I feel bad she's getting audited and feel like it's my fault she didn't claim Airbnb income on her taxes. We also split the income via couple-related expense sharing (she paid for some mutual expenses through Airbnb money), so I technically should owe her some money if she gets taxed on it.

Rick Rickshaw posted:poo poo poo poo poo poo. Instead of giving the letter to your ex, you should also return to sender it back to CRA. This way your ex will be forced to change her address on file with the CRA so that she reports she is no longer living at your address. This matters because CRA will make determinations on your marital status based on this information which will affect your tax situation. There can be a lot of tax consequences for this change so the sooner this is cleared up with CRA the better for you.

Can someone explain how I use my TFSA? Do I open one up with my bank and put money into it which I then use to invest in stuff? Or do I make the investments a TFSA in the first place? Zettace fucked around with this message at 04:42 on Nov 25, 2016 |

Zettace posted:Can someone explain how I use my TFSA? TFSA is post-tax so it doesn't matter if you buy the investments first or open the account first. You can transfer stuff in once it's opened but generally people sell in their other unregistered account and then buy the equivalent in the TFSA investment account to avoid the transfer fees.

I have it on good authority that Justin Trudeau, most good looking world leader, is going to be increasing capital gains tax from 50% of realized gains to 75% of realized gains. Accountants who work for very rich people in Vancouver are currently advising their clients to cash in on those investments right now to avoid the new tax regime. Someone's gotta pay for all those infrastructure upgrades lmao I can't verify this nor can I tell you how I know so feel free to ignore this bc i don't really give a gently caress.

The "didn't go all in on housing and thus has substantial non-registered holdings" is an ideal constituency to gently caress in a political sense, so I would not be at all surprised.

Risky Bisquick posted:Which tax scheme do you recommend for 6 figure unsheltered? Cause 75% and exposed to the risks LOL I will answer, Trudeau style family trust. There's the lifetime capital gains exemption around 800k so you pound the money in there, pay dividends out to split income perfectly. When you sell assets you get to use your wife and kids' lifetime capital gains exemption provided they're over a certain age. http://www.mondaq.com/canada/x/385722/Capital+Gains+Tax/What+Is+A+Family+Trust+And+Why+Would+I+Want+One+As+A+Business+Owner http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-investor/personal-finance/household-finances/the-truth-about-family-trusts/article615586/ Postess with the Mostest fucked around with this message at 15:43 on Nov 25, 2016 |
