From the looks of things you have to sell on the market at some point if it's going up and then switch to some other index other than stocks.
Real estate, gold, etc.
Otherwise you face the issues presented here
>>11555 I started investing in December, so I'm hoping the market does a repeat of '65-'95 instead of '55-'75.
Though wouldn't we all want to live from '80 to '10
Wouldn't that be great. Reality isn't so nice though

Oh! now it all makes sense why they recommend a slow shift into bonds as you get closer to retirement, that way you cash in on the gains and eventually reach a position where you ignore market fluctuations, instead focusing on ownership of other's debts!

Did a neat napkin calculation.
So my local grocery chain is publicly listed with a dividend of 0.90$/share annual. Shares are on sale for 70$
MRU.to But my local grocery chain also offers a points/rewards system where 125 points = 1$. So with bonus points(45pt hypothetically) and the 70pt you get for 70$ of purchse you're effectively getting the dividend return of 1 MRU stock without any ownership.
So in a sense, stores that provide the clientel with discounts are effectively giving out dividends to customers. Kind of neat.

thinking a bit more, I don't like any of these resource stocks. They're at all time highs and will probably plummet a few months after Russia submits to Chinese economics. Something like CNI SHOP or TRI maybe... Have to find something else that's good in the TSX market or have a timeframe of until CAD vs USD stops sucking so I can invest in US economy without fearing a loss of money from xchange rates

Tied to a country's export/import performance and the government's monitary pollicy.
You could load up on CAD because it's at a pretty high rate and then multiple years in cash it in for 10-20 cent profit per dollar. But you never know if the current exchange rate is a new norm or if it will improve.

Was out with my brother yesterday and he was talking about us splitting the bill for a $300 purchase, and when I got a look at his bank account I noticed that doing so would have basically been him spending 5% of what he had. Think seeing this really put into perspective how absurd my idea of a normal bank balance is... Would've thought that someone who's been working for a few years now would at least have 10k in the bank. How off is that assumption?

Though. There are a lot of money traps in things. When you enjoy things you end up spending most of your money on them.
House debt is a risk that can have returns. Credit card or personal credit lines are burning holes in your wallet to fulfill desires beyond your capabilities.

also the kids of rich people tend to live in a way where they take their wealth for granted. There's a tendency for the rags category of wealth to be extremely risky and their intelligence keeps the risks down. The riches on the otherhand are given everything they need. They might decry socialism, but thet basically live in it through the access of funds from wealthy parents. But that's just like, not everyone wants to go beyond their current economic situation. In the case of high wealth, I think that the level of effort needed to upkeep that lifestyle comes with the cost of a lot of effort and more importantly risks that need to be offset by effort. In Japan rich families end up becoming middle class in a few generations because on death most money goes to the government. To a lesser extent the same thing happens in America

>>13236 If you look at Price/Earnings ratios then you can begin to see a trend in more established companies where high P/E means that they've reached a peak in market cap that investors are willing to spend.
For the tech sector this P/E can be very high because they don't do much shareholder compensation and people have expectations of their P/E getting smaller as they earn more in future quarters.
NVDA's Foreward P/E is 44 while trailing is 113... So in the company itself is projecting profits that will cause the high PE to stabilize. Of course... this could or could not be the case depending on your interpretation of the data

Yeah, this seems to be going pretty well. Compared against XIC which is a good benchmark for the TSX I was trailing by about a percentage and from the looks of things this gamble has put me at beating it by 0.01% and I'm still down on TD by about -3.2% and MFC by -1.5%. NVIDIA helped keep me afloat until I switched out of it by providing me with an instant 10% gain on a 10% portion of my portfolio. Well, this is all hypothetical. Never know what will happen when I wake up in 6 hours

>>13279 As long as it's not ARKK
Good in bull markets, bad in bear markets. In my opinion.
>>13278 XIC is a total TSX ETF and GSPTSE is the TSX itself.
ZAG is a Canadian bond aggregate.
So you can see that for a 0.06% expense fee you get good performance in line with the success of the Canadian financial, retail, mining and energy markets. Right now only have the financial sector really doing well.
But the market is kind of sucking so what I've done is that I only have MFC 10%, TD 40% and GIC(Canadian garunteed 1yr bond) 50%.
Using this strategy I'm beating the TSX and XIC. I'll be passing the SPX if TD hits 82CAD. But I've considered not doing any self management and putting everything into XIC
Now... if you mean ETF like the managed ones that try to beat the market, I wouldn't touch those. Index ETF or self managed. Never investment brokers, never managed ETFs.
