      SCHX and FTEC. I'm fine with FTEC, but SCHX needed more research done on my part. It was great in 2020 when 2 companies were soaring upward and on the outside of the S&P 500 (Tesla & Zoom). Now that those companies are in the S&P 500, it no longer beats the S&P 500. Still good returns, just not consistently as good as IVV or VOO.

      Just VBAL for me. Mostly because it’s an all in one ETF but it contains bonds. I first invested in it because it was my first purchase in a DIY portfolio and I didn’t want to take on much risk. However, I’m considering VGRO or even VEQT now that I have a bit more confidence.

    this was a helpful video! for canadians, do you recommend buying these stocks in USD (since wealthsimple/banks typically charge us to buy US stocks), or is it better to buy the canadian versions of these stocks (such as VFV)? I'm kind of confused about that!

    • @rodrigobarth4007
      @rodrigobarth4007 2 роки тому

      Yeah I have the same question. I believe as Canadians is more effective for us to buy the Canadian versions due to the conversion fees you just cited. Both VOO and VFV have the same holdings.

    • @stephandden
      @stephandden  2 роки тому +3

      It's ideal to look at the Canadian versions (like a VFV), however there are a number of articles online that compares the difference between a Canadian listed ETF and a US listed ETF that track the same market that might be worth digging into - also, Norbit's Gambit is a strategy that can be used to buy the US version without having to pay as high of fees. Hope that helps 😊

    Hello, great video. So i've been buying VEQT, VFV and HXQ (Nasdaq). I know the last two are overlapping but what are your thoughts. I just don't want to miss out on Nasdaq and S&P 500 so i thought why not buy all of them lol.

    • @famsaun3357
      @famsaun3357 2 роки тому +4

      VFV in your TFSA. VOO can be used in your RRSP since you will not pay any foreign withhold tax due to an agreement with the US. But then you will have to pay forex fees to trade to USD. You have the possibility of using Norbert’s Gambit to reduce your cost depending on where you trade from.
      VFV is much simpler and certainly for your TFSA

    • @stephandden
      @stephandden  2 роки тому +3

      VFV is like VOO, but is traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange - so as a Canadian you can save on exchange fees with VFV 😊

    • @stephandden
      @stephandden  2 роки тому +1

      Given that it's an all-world ETF, it provides global diversification - and given that it trades in Europe, and is made for those that live in Europe, there are likely better tax advantages than a fund that trades in North America (assuming you're based there!). Definitely something to look into further if that's what you're looking for 😊

    I’m a big believer in S&P500’s VOO etf, but since I’m in Canada, it really does make sense to buy VFV, which is its equivalent and trades in Canadian dollars. Thanks for the video guys! Keep rocking 🙌🏼

    Great video! 2 🇨🇦 questions:
    1. How do you get started with a self directed TFSA or RRSP, when you have each already tied up in mutual funds at one of the big 5?
    2. What does the process look like to transfer out of mutual funds for both TFSA and RRSP and into a self directed account to purchase ETFs/stocks?
    If there is a video on this that would be great if you can share! I’ve been investing for 5+ years but don’t know how to take control.

    • @stephandden
      @stephandden  2 роки тому

      Hey Mariah! I (Steph) went through something similar in the past - I started with mutual funds at TD Bank, then switched to a self-directed account as the same bank, then left and switched to Wealthsimple. We have some videos up on the channel about this from over a year ago where we talked a bit more about both stages. 😊

    All of the etfs mentioned are us ones and with those as per wealthsimple you need to pay a fee each time you buy one of these stocks. So, there can be a possibility of all the profit eaten up by fees

    Lol, not the comparison with the cereal!! The price per unit (g) is higher with the multipack, and ETF's are cheaper to buy (lower fees). But i get your point:) Great job on the channel!

  • @e5toro7008
    @e5toro7008 2 роки тому +1

    You guys forgot to mention the most important thing regarding all of these ETF's and that's the *expense ratios.* The higher they are, the more they'll eat away at your future earnings. In a span of over 20 - 30 years of investing that could amount to well over tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands lost in fees!! 👎
    From the five you mentioned VOO and VTI have the lowest expense ratio at 0.03%
    I personally have VOO in my 401K, Roth IRA, HSA, and my taxable account. VOO all the way all the time. VTI is a close 2nd, but I wouldn't even consider the rest.
