Well today the CAD has dropped into the 60's... Freeland exitting Trudeau's cabinet likley to do with that.

people don't buy higher yielding equities just for income, they buy them because they have higher income AND lower beta/less volatility (this does not apply to A shares of bank split corps which although their underlying securities are low vol /high yield, A shares are opposite: high volatility and yield).

And that's your opinion since you sold , so post on the EIT board as you think they have no banks and are immune from any sort of correction .As another non owning poster but just a rabble rouser neutral observer said You have no shame , you welched on a bet and lost any credibility you had as Liars have none , when exposed.

Thinking maybe you don't own any Costco stock cost... it's up 365$ this year alone.... EIT is not immune from corrections.. I don't care I own it for the 11500 $ monthly divi... I don't know how this is possible but I did a search on you and red-deer and you 2 have identical names.... how is it possible 2 guy with the name of Richard Noggin.... I really like the FTN chart....
