RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Selling this morning for those wonderingAccording to WebBroker it went into effect beginning of this week:
Subject: Reminder: Shortened Trade Settlement Dates Starting May 27, 2024
Canadian markets will shorten the trade settlement cycle to one business day starting Monday, May 27, 2024. For U.S. market participants, the shortened trade settlement cycle will start on Tuesday, May 28, 2024. This change will impact trades for stocks, Exchange-Traded Funds, fixed income securities and most mutual funds.
What does this mean for you?
Starting May 27 in Canadian markets and May 28 in U.S. markets, your trades involving the securities mentioned above will settle sooner (one business day) than their current settlement time (two business days). Please note, if you make a security purchase on and after these dates, you will need to have sufficient funds available within the shortened trade settlement cycle of one business day.
You now have until 4 p.m. ET to place mutual fund orders, including money market funds and Investment Savings Account (ISA) orders, which may be used to settle your balance.
