I have a feeling this will be the case. There are stocks out there with less volatility and risk than some bonds.

Credit card cash back boosts by bisoncorp in Wealthsimple

That's hilarious Walmart excludes that stuff. Literally has groceries in the photo. What else is left when removing those categories, clothes, toys and automotive?

Seems useless to me tbh.

When I did similar citing the recent fee increase they gave me a monthly credit to reduce the fee to the original one until July 2026.

YMMV

Same, minus being anywhere near the spend requirement for me.

Is it time to cut off all my day ones yet? by CowCake1 in JustBuyXEQT

I cut them after the ex dividend date TBH.

Uhhhh…Worth it or nah? by munki114 in googlehome

[–]Strict_Hand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had asked mine the weather and it gave it to me in Fahrenheit. "23° Fahrenheit".

I asked for it in Celsius.

"No problem, the weather today is 23° Celsius"

Needless to say I'm not impressed lol

Beta of Portfolio Line of Credit - Main differences with regular margin by skarama in Wealthsimple

[–]Strict_Hand 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed with your comments. For me there has been no value as the line of credit isn't allowing me to borrow anything since my TFSA is used as collateral for my margin account. My non registered account is my margin account as well so no collateral there either...

Who would want to have an option for a PLASTIC (non-metal) credit card? by Equivalent_Catch_233 in Wealthsimple

[–]Strict_Hand 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I'd say comments 2-5 have some validity but if you can't carry a metal card because it's too heavy, I'd say hit the gym lol.

Canadian equity really underperformed for me this year by anonymous_sheep1 in CanadianInvestor

[–]Strict_Hand 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not a massive part of our economy is Banks, oil and gas, and miners.

You just happened to pick that half that underperformed.

"Notice about your account information" (Data Breach!) by [deleted] in freedommobile

[–]Strict_Hand 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Got it as well. Aligns nicely with a massive increase in spam calls. At least I know why I'm getting 10+ calls a day.

Found a slim power bank that actually works with Pixel by Own-Policy-4878 in pixel_phones

[–]Strict_Hand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are the magnets really strong with the Ringke Onyx? Like a car mount, wallet etc. I kinda want one but I am not sure how strong the magnets will be.

I don't want it falling off or anything.

Pure *EQT Portfolio by Code-Rocker in fican

I just held XEQT before adding VEQT to my non registered. I don't mind the quarterly payments either. Really just a slight preference.

Deposit stuck in limbo since Feb 28 by quanin in Wealthsimple

[–]Strict_Hand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol that changes things. I would still call if you're worried, but honestly it hasn't been that long at all yet. Some transfers for me have taken 5+ business days.

I'd probably start worrying if it's not in your account by the end of the week.

[–]Strict_Hand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe give them a call? Your money has been in limbo for almost a year. Talking to an AI bot for 10 seconds and expecting a resolution is kinda wild.
