@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
@@shellz831 Sorry to pick on you but that's incorrect. WealthSimple does not allow DRIPs. You can setup a recurring purchase to buy a stock every week or every month but that isn't a DRIP. If it is a monthly dividend, you could probably setup a monthly purchase of a stock and hopefully the dividend will be enough to cover the cost but again, it will be totally unrelated to your dividend. It will just assume you have cash available so it's not a DRIP

Thanks for the hard work and great advice, Adrian. I opened up a Questrade account in mid-2020 using your promo code, and it's excellent. It's so handy to be able to buy even a single ETF at no charge on Questrade, so I'm able to build up savings in a certain sector and once the ETF hits several thousand dollars I'll buy one or two of the underlying stocks (e.g. swap out a banking ETF for shares in TD, RBC etc). It's a nice conservative approach to grow funds from nothing using small but frequent regular purchases of the distribution-paying ETFs to building up capital as an intermediate step before moving into stocks directly.

And that sound like a great strategy! Regarding bank ETFs, I actually avoid those since those ETFs literally only contain 6 stocks... I prefer ETFs that have at least 30 holdings but ideally over 100. For only 6 stocks, I might as well buy those stocks directly and avoid that annual management fee. But I get in your case, you are doing that to avoid the commission fees. Just something to consider, I agree in occasionally swapping those ETFs for a direct share =)

First of all, great brief Adrian. Convince me I need to DRIP based on below rationale. With the advent of fractional share purchases on Wealthsimple, there really isn't a compelling reason to use a DRIP. I simply reinvest my dividends which now allows me to incrementally benefit from a fluctuating share price. Automated fractional purchasing will likely be an upcoming option for Plus members as Wealthsimple builds out their back end. Note: most of the companies you mentioned are fractional-able on Wealthsimple (exceptions PLZ.UN, HR.UN, CRT.UN, FCR.UN, PMZ.UN, CSH.UN, ZAG, and XRE which is a wrapper for most of the aforementioned REITs). But, I can use an ETF that is fractional-able (eg. ZRE) to buy those REITs that are not fractional-abled as well as a fractional-abled ETF to buy all bond offerings. Recommended next video for you: Explain why you can fractional buy/trade some REITs versus AP.UN, SRU.UN and ZRE which you can. Benefits of $10/mth Plus Wealthsimple Account: - USD accounts; - $0 in FX fees on each US stock or ETF trade from a USD account; - Free USD deposits and withdrawals (for direct USD transfers to/from personal DIY trading accounts only); and - Instant funds deposit up to $5K CAD ($4K USD).

Would you get disqualified from the drip when the stock price increase? Or if the dividend amount drop
@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
Yes, the DRIP will only go through if the dividend you receive is greater than or equal to the share price on that day! So if you qualify for a DRIP today but a month later, the share price jumps up, if the dividend can't cover the price of a share, then the DRIP won't go through and you'll just earn cash as usual. That's why I always suggest investing more than the minimum, to give yourself a buffer so that the DRIP goes through even if the share price grows =)

@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
Questrade doesn't offer fractional shares (WealthSimple does for certain stocks but not all) Personally, I don't want fractional shares since it makes my calculations much more complex and messy if I don't have whole numbers and it will make taxes messier as well. Also, adding fractional shares would just add more work on the brokerage side and more work means more fees, so I would rather keep the fees down and stick to whole shares =)

If I'm not mistaken, Wealthsimple has zero trading fees for CDN stocks. If that's the case, despite not having DRIP system, is it not just better to manually buy stocks than to pay ~5 trading fees in Questrade (if you plan to make large and frequent purchases of CDN stocks)?
@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
You are correct, with WealthSimple you don't pay commission fees so you can MANUALLY reinvest your dividends by buying an extra share with that cash, but it won't be done automatically and if you have many dividend stocks with DRIPs, this can be annoying to do manually. I will be making a WHOLE video comparison on WealthSimple vs Questrade. They are both great platforms and I think WealthSimple is fantastic for Canadian beginners but there are a ton of hidden fees and severe restrictions which I will cover. And most importantly, I ONLY recommend WealthSimple for purely CANADIAN stocks. Do NOT use them for US investing, it will cost you a TON of money in the long run in currency conversion fees!

For US investing, use NORBERT'S GAMBIT with Questrade to avoid paying ANY currency conversion fees! This will save you hundreds or thousands in the long run! I have a step by step tutorial on how it's done in this video =) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p5yBZMersJ7apKc.html

Hi there, I’m a 28 y/o male who recently started investing in ETFs. I really like HDIV, HYLD, Canoe EIT, ZWB, ZWU, FIE. I just have a general question (as there is one looming around the corner) and that would be how do these do during bad market times? Ie: how does the dividend get paid? I am holding a certain amount of capital to DCA on these ETFs when that time comes, I just thought I’d ask if it’s something I should continue worrying about. Thank you so much for your time!

thoughts on how Rising interest rates might effect REITS like Plaza? do they own their properties outright? any information on their current debt levels on cash on hand, maybe some data on vacancy rates compared to other similar commercial REITs, ect would like to have more information and pick a few stocks i feel confident in rather than dozens of stocks just winging it, especially heading into a recession
@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
Most companies but especially REITs are heavily leveraged with mortgages and loans to finance new developments and redevelopments. That's why REITs are hit particularly hard when interest rates rise since their mortgage interest increases. But that's why it's important to pick REITs with quality tenants, high occupancy rates and a history of consistent and growing revenue to endure those extra costs =)

Unfortunately no! You are STILL taxed on those dividends! It does not matter whether you receive the dividend as cash or reinvest it as a DRIP, it will STILL be taxed! However that's only for a non-registered account like a Margin account. In a tax-sheltered account like the TFSA or RRSP, the dividends are 100% tax-free and so are the DRIPs =)

Hey Adrian, great video! I’ve just started investing using Questrade for my TFSA. I was wondering for a beginner if it is better to prioritize diversification (buying many different stocks across different industries) or buying a smaller number of different stocks and locking in a DRIP? Please let me know, thanks!!!

I always say diversification is the name of the game! It can be tempting to focus all your attention on one stock to lock in that DRIP ASAP but I think it's safer overall to spread out your investments over different stocks and sectors and work your way up to a DRIP across the board! =)

If you buy them directly through the company! Absolutely take advantage of those discounts! However, keep in mind that a company can always choose to suspend their DRIP program! That happened to a lot of the big dividend players in the past few years like Enbridge and RioCan.

I'm wondering if there is any difference in tax owed in a dividend vs price appreciation scenario. Scenario 1: Buy 100 shares @ $10 each, after 1 year you have 200 shares @ $10 each due to a steady dividend drip, no price increase in the stock. Scenario 2: Buy 100 shares @ $10 each, after 1 year you have 100 shares @ $20 each due to a steady increase in the share price. You sell both of these for $2,000 is there any difference in the tax owing in these 2 scenarios?
@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
Absolutely there is! If you're in a tax-sheltered account like the TFSA, RRSP, RESP or FHSA then there are no taxes anyway so you don't have to worry about it. But in a non-registered account (Margin) investment income will be taxed differently. I'll be making a whole video about it since it can be quite complex
@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
Here is the short summary: capital gains will be taxed at HALF of your marginal tax rate on the profit when you sell. US and foreign dividends and taxed at your full tax rate. Canadian eligible dividends will be taxed less due to the dividend tax credit, the effective tax rate will depend on your income. I'll break this all down in an upcoming video =)

As for Plaza REIT, I debated them because for the last 4 years, the mall they own here in the city has more vacant stores with rent me signs then they do actual operational stores and are losing more and more it seems. I feel in a few more years it’ll be a completely “dead mall” if Plaza REIT doesn’t step in and make changes to make store front property more appealing to businesses and start up’s.

@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
Ideally you want to max out both! But between the two of them, I would prioritize the FHSA! You get the SAME tax-sheltered benefit PLUS the enormous benefit of tax deductions like the RRSP! As it stands right now, the FHSA is set to launch on April 1 but it still isn't confirmed. I'll keep you guys updated! =)
@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
You might also consider putting in some money into your RRSP! Remember if you contribute to your RRSP before March 1, you'll reduce your 2022 taxable income so you'll receive a tax refund in April when you file your taxes. Then you can use that tax refund to invest in the TFSA or the FHSA =)

Though it is supposed to have a quarterly yield of 1.3% for a total of 5.2% per year, my annual yield is only 0.8%. I am not sure where to find the share minimums you need to hold to earn the full yield potential. Would love some help :)
@CanadianTShirt Жыл бұрын
Hi Maria! I hate to be the bearer of bad news but VSP does not have that high of a yield... it tracks the S&P 500, the largest companies in the US most of which don't pay dividends so VSP actually has an ANNUAL dividend yield of 1.3%. In the finance world, whenever you see a percentage like dividends or interest it is always an ANNUAL amount! So the 1.3% yield is 1.3% paid out over the year, it's just divided into quarterly payments, so you can think of it as 0.325% yield every quarter. I hope that makes sense! =)
