lz6cc3k | I think your comment ignores the root of the problem.. Even though Loblaws is profiting a lot, it's still the cheapest option for Canadians in most cases (or sometimes the only option).

lz6ct11 | Like I said IBKR should be used. The currency conversion rates are 0.002% or you can use norbits. Plus you can hold other types of currencies, like a proper broker.
Wealthsimple FORCES you to sell and convert currency for every single trade. You cannot hold USD, unless you apply to their arbitrary requirements.

lz6d85g | You are correct, there was a month long covid crash of 30% with an acute recovery and a choppy 2022 with a max drawdown of 25%.
In general, nobody expected the covid crash to recover so quickly as the world was in shambles, and everyone has been calling for a recession since.
I've heard weekly predictions and prophecies of massive crashes and recessions for many years and somehow 99% of economists and analysts failed to accurately call those two.
It's best to ignore the noise and make reasonable long term investments. | 5 | Adorable_Text | 2024-11-27T01:58:27 | null | 4 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h098w8/daily_discussion_thread_for_november_26_2024/lz6d85g/ | 3 | t3_1h098w8 | t1_lz6amiq | false | false |
lz6dn8f | Depends on use case I guess. No way I’m driving to our cottage with an EV and our two year old and dog, or more accurately no way I’m stopping to charge on route either there or back. Same goes for any towing more than 100km. The enviro impact of a 85kwhr battery is pretty bad too and the flimsy green agenda that goes with it is hard to support and the tax payer incentives to prop up the EV segment even worse.

> In general, nobody expected the covid crash to recover so quickly as the world was in shambles, and everyone has been calling for a recession since.
Economy ≠ stock market.
>It is widely believed that economic growth is good for stockholders. However, the cross-country correlation of real stock returns and per capita GDP growth over 1900–2002 is negative. Economic growth occurs from high personal savings rates and increased labor force participation, and from technological change.

That being said, look at the pure definition of socialism. The workers own the means of production. This isn’t to be confused with a conservative definition of socialism either. When the workers own the means of production, everyone is affected by inflation. There is less incentive for corporate greed and fiduciary duty of protecting shareholder equity. This would help pay equity, decrease scarcity of cheap exploitative labour, stimulate competition and innovation and decrease monopolies. | 2 | Emmerson_Brando | 2024-11-27T04:55:19 | null | 2 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h0q3p8/loblaws_and_dollorama_have_been_among_the_tsx_top/lz73hqa/ | 3 | t3_1h0q3p8 | t1_lz6cc3k | false | false |

I even agree with you, IBKR is probably a better platform overall (not for noobs tho), and fx definitely.... But you're freaking out about $10/month to hold USD?

lz766g8 | Right see how you avoided answering anything? Because you know you're incorrect..
And I literally said the fx fees are better at other brokerages, why do you keep ignoring that? I am in agreement with you.
But saying you can't hold USD at Wealthsimple is factually incorrect.
And you do know they have to make money somewhere right? So $10 a month is nothing, when trades are $0.
I'm pretty sure if you trade on IBKR the average person is paying more than $10 on commission fees per month

IBKR is per share and minimum fee
Questrade is per share with $5 minimum per trade
So obviously for large trades it's peanuts, but you can't buy a few shares here and there because the fees will eat you up...

Just sharing perspective, not trying to debate
The problem with currency exchange is that it is often political and macro economic dependent. It is harder to deduce value by looking at fundamentals. It’s less predictable. But I pretty much got used to measuring everything in USD as some sort of “base world currency”, so I don’t care much about CAD. | 1 | mr_bearish | 2024-11-27T05:36:16 | null | 1 | /r/CanadianInvestor/comments/1h0mg0t/is_it_worth_buying_us_stocks_with_cad_being_so/lz78in5/ | 6 | t3_1h0mg0t | t1_lz5ucqy | false | false |

lz7i2w2 | Canada’s current status quo involves us raping our land for natural resources and shipping it completely unprocessed to the US so that they can extract as much value from our resources as possible.
Shifting value-add industries to Canada is good in the long term if we can sustain the demand shock.
Our key import/export industries to the US by value are oil (&byproducts) and cars (&byproducts). Fortunately, oil is a fairly liquid asset globally and car factories are rather easy to repurpose to build cars from companies in countries that are less openly hostile to Canadian economic interests.
