Hi Mark, your content is really helpful when it comes to decision-making. Keep up the great work! Also, loved the cat in the background, it added a funny touch to the video.
11:04... Small Correction: *_Canadian Dividend Aristocrats_* are different than the US ones, in that the criteria of eligibility of those companies _is actually _*_5 years_*_ or more of growing dividend_ payments, instead of 25 years. Other than that, nice summary.👍
When Mark spoke of 'dividend aristocrats' he said they're companies that have grown their dividends for 25 years. While that might be a common criteria for US companies, in Canada the standard is lower. In the CDZ ETF that he recommended, the dividends-paying Canadian companies only needed to have consecutively increase dividends for five years to be worthy of inclusion as a 'dividend aristocrat'. It's an easy mistake to make because most information about dividend aristocrats is typically in the context of American stocks. There are actually only three Canadian stocks that have increased their dividends consistently for more than 25 years. They are Enbridge (TSX:ENB), Fortus (TSX:FTS), and Canadian Utilities (TSX:CU). Obviously a three stock index is not diversified enough so they lower the standard so more companies are represented in the index.
Hahaha your cat was doing a fantastic statue pose until you mentioned her name! lol glad she’s back tho. Tho no response I had notice when she was gone away. So keep her there. Look at that focus lol 😂
I'm a beginner, let's say I have one thousand in my t.F s a how much should I be investing monthly into a portfolio?I'm gonna choose two or three? Should I invest that whole one k or shut that one case sit and just add monthly and say a hundred dollars into each portfolio?What do you recommend? I'm on a budget, so I think the max.I'm saving us 200 hundred a month
Hearing someone call a .18 management expense ratio “kind of high” is wild. Been around for a long time my man and .18 is basically free. Even .27. Basically free.
sounds like some good picks on the regular etfs side. on the other hand, don't think anyone investing in crypto etfs should invest in crypto anyway what so ever. the risk is simply too high for anyone who aint willing to spend the time to learn how crypto works.
He keeps saying management fees but where does that come? I use wealth simple trade app and when I click etf and click buy then hold, I haven’t seen no management fees deducted….I’m beginner. Haven’t sold
Hello and thank you for this video. Can you point out (in the key facts of an ETF or somewhere else) where you can find «the number of assets under management» as you said in your video (1m53)? You said for exemple that a market cap of 10M$ could not have enough liquidity. Where can I find this info? Do you mean «The Number of underlying holding»?
According to many guests on BNN, liquidity of an ETF is measured by the liquidity of the stocks (holdings) rather than volume of an ETF. If you have any questions about an etf, either holdings, asset under management etc. it’s best to check with the etf provider website or contact them. They will be happy to help you.
Hi Mark I’m 52 yrs young I have 10 k and I want to invest so buy the time I retire I have some extra $ to help me out we’re do I start I’m new to all this TIA.
The correct answer depends on many things, but you probably want to open a RRSP either with an single-ETF portfolio listed in this video or a properly diversified mutual fund.
Thanks. But what I don't like about ETFs is that they follow the market in general. The chart of each is similar, and for my style of investing ('value' and 'growth') they are generic without taking into account unique opportunities in individual companies. I consider them but I don't get excited that they will be the next Alibaba . But if course they don't like 3/4 of value as BABA has done.

Finally someone who makes it easy to understand and to the point !!
Main holdings are XEQT , VFV , VDY
do they give a good return
What's your allocation to these holdings? I'm thinking of doing 70% XEQT, 20% VFV, 10% VDY
Nice video! I knew all the info, but like the speed you went through the info so I still watched, great job!😊
Glad you enjoyed!

Going to look at some of these. Tired of high fees through my financial broker
Love your cat just chilling in the background. Regardless very informative.
9:33 omg the cat is munching that tree

Thanks for the great video and the information on each stock. I've been looking into where i can invest, make some return, this video helped alot!
Hi Mark, Thank you for the informative video. Could you please tell the website you used in the video for the analysis of ETFs?
the website he's using is blackrock, i believe
Your information is so important, thank you very much 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Is wealthsimple the best wat to go or would you go more of the in depth route of ETrade, TD trading or any other Canadian banks?
Ff
you literally listed basically my entire portfolio, except I also hold total market bond funds.
I kind of like - Harvest - multi-sector - HDIF - great selection of stocks - monthly payments - easy to compound the distributions 😊
You’re awesome. I learned a lot from this video. Thanks so much.

Thank you for sharing, would you please share which platform are you using to see stock performances and their distribution?
Did you get the name of the site by any chance?
@@larrylarry3549 you can find the ETF information on blackrock's website or vanguard's website directly
What about XEG? For blackrock ? Difference between that and XUU? Better - Same or XEG worse?
Great info! Super for making decisions easier. Thanks!
very helpful no nonsense video. thank you!

guess it's all relative but most broad market etfs charge much less than .18 - every little bit counts when it's compounding
How much XIC should i buy 1? Im new starting out i dont wanna lose. I dont understand the concept either 😅
WHATS THE APPLICATION YOU ARE USING TO CHECK ALL THESE?
BlackRock
What do you think about ZGQ: BMO MSCI All Country World High Quality Index ETF ?
sounds like some good picks on the regular etfs side. on the other hand, don't think anyone investing in crypto etfs should invest in crypto anyway what so ever. the risk is simply too high for anyone who aint willing to spend the time to learn how crypto works.
XEQT 80% / BTCY 10% / ETHY 10%: retire and live happily
I’m 18 I have about 20k to invest you think this the best option? I already have 6k in another index fund called vanguard
Im on 30 vfv 30 vdy 15 xeqt 15 znq🤷🏻♂️ crazy gain
Btcy vs btcy.b?

Thank you, you are brilliant!
Thank you! Great info
Why should I hold only 1 ETF? Why not more??

New subscriber. Excellent video it helped me a lot.

- What is management fee?
- Let's say I buy a ETF today, can I sell it anytime next year?
What website does he use to analyse ETF?
just ask him
the purpose etf's charge 1% per year?
Can you DCA into dividend etf’s like the aristocrat and have it DRIP the dividend payouts back to auto buy more of it?
Forget about investments, I just want to be your cat man...
