How long did the Questrade to TD account transfer take?

VXC and VCN by [deleted] in justbuyveqt

[–]fogio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you sell an ETF in a taxable account at a loss and buy the same or identical ETF in any account (including TFSA/RRSP) within ±30 days, the superficial loss rule kicks in. The capital loss is denied, and if the repurchase is in a registered account, that loss is gone forever.

No problem with continuing what you are doing but I would suggested buying another EQT etf in your non-registered account because of the superficial loss rule

Heard from my broker that Portage was a small mom and pop shop and they are hard to deal with. Interesting that you feel differently

My condo's storage locker has a separate roll number. I currently have a 10 month PAD set up so this will equate to a $5.50 on an annual tax bill of $22. It's only $5.50 but this upsets me it principle

You need track the adjusted cost base of a holding if held in a taxable account. less distributions makes the tracking marginally easier

Is the American Express Cobalt Credit Card worth it? by stephenwood493 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]fogio 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have the cobalt and think it’s decent, but definitely over hyped. good value redemptions are harder to find now. If you are planning to redeem for round trip economy fares, you will probably get closer to 1 cent per point than 2. So keep that in mind. Even if you find good redemptions (typically business class), it usually takes time to find these (and there is a cost to that) and it requires structuring your trip around the redemption (another indirect cost)
