And people think this dude is going to beat Trump They're both a bunch of bozos but Trump will destroy him in a debate setting. Does anyone actually like Biden or is it just "anybody but Trump"?

I'm still with Square after buying in in the mid 60s. Bought about 25k worth and I owe @AriGold2.0 big time! Anyone else an owner of Square that got in a while back? It's a keeper

For the love of god Jim, do not keep this guy next year His hockey sense is 99% non existent. Kid can fly on the ice but he really lacks the hockey IQ to do anything consistent with his gifts. So completely frustrating. And to those saying he doesn't play enough, there's good reason

I would walk away from this dude in the off-season. He clearly has a lot of raw skill but I don't think he's ever going to be the player he was hyped up to be Trade his rights or do a sign n' trade, but either way, the Canucks do NOT need Virtanen Such a frustrating player

He said a bunch of dumb stuff and ran himself out of the league. He didn't kill anyone, so I have no issue with this.

I sold 3/4 of my shares in Nikola earlier today for a profit of about 30k in about a month. Ari, you are a god. I'm still in with about 180 or so shares that I bought at 19 bucks US. I'll keep those on the chance that this might sky rocket even more. I do agree that it's ridiculously overvalued right now.

Duuuude This is ridiculous

Same! Bought in at $19, thought about selling, now today happens. No clue what to do. No clue

Ari Gold...you son of a gun Ok, so I've been getting really risky the last little while. Made some adjustments with my TFSA and made the following 2 moves: Bought 700 Shares of VTIQ at $19.29 US (May 13) Bought 265 Shares of Square at 67.65 US (May 5) I've held on to both. If I jumped out right now, I'm at about a 21k profit in less than a bloody month (this is absolutely unheard of for me as I've typically kept things pretty tame except for when I decided to sink a lot into WWE a while ago) I have absolutely NO CLUE what I want to do with those two stocks. Do I take it and run, or do I stay the course. Suggestions folks, I need them Good luck to you all, and Ari, I legit owe you a bottle of wine

Agreed, I was referring strictly to the government. I mean, I barely trust any government, but theirs is certainly quite something.

This whole rona situation reeks of sketchy BS coming from China. Every last bit of it. I don't trust that country one bit and nor should any other sane person

Regarding my TFSA issue of hoping to jump on purchasing other stocks within it, here's my exact scenario: I'm at my max contribution ($69.5K) With VTIQ and a few other stocks in the TFSA account, I have gains as of right now (so my account is reasonably above the $69.5K as of this moment) Let's say for example I wanted to sell off some VTIQ (or something else), could I still purchase another stock (basically swapping in and out) and still be abiding by the TFSA rules? If I had contribution room, this is a moot point, I'd just purchase up to my max ceiling of 69.5k, but since I already maxed out, am I now relegated to waiting until next year to go in another 6k? I could obviously just purchase stocks through the margin account but who wants to pay tax on gains right. I mean, let's say VTIQ was losing a bunch of money, I'd obviously want to get out of that stock and move in to something different. One must think that TFSA accounts allow for this, so perhaps gains and losses don't affect the contribution room? Sorry for bringing this up a few times. I'm a confused soul Go Canucks Go!

Christ almighty, what the hell should I do VTIQ, you lovely lady you I think I'm going to let this one ride May god have mercy on my soul

Yup, May 14 @ 9am I want to get in on this RTTR business, but as a bit of a rookie to the investing scene, I have a question as it relates to TFSA's. I maxed out my TFSA and my gains put me over the limit (although I don't think that's an issue) If I wanted to sell one of my stocks in my TFSA and use that money towards RTTR, am I still able to do that in the TFSA even though it was previously maxed out? I'm having a hard time understanding the rules I've been reading online as it relates to withdrawls and buying new stocks when you've maxed out your contributions. Thanks gang!

A quick follow up so it doesn't get lost in my last post. What is the best trading platform out there? Questrade? Qtrade? Wealth Simple? I was going to go with the TD Web Broker but that one dude on here seems like he's had a hell of a time dealing with them. I'm just looking for the simplest platform to use with reasonable fees (aren't we all)

Which platform are you using? I'm still probably one of the few on here still doing things through an advisor (it keeps me in check) but I am going to move some money into an account I can manage myself. And I too wonder about RTTR What says Ari and the other wise people on here? Worth buy into still?

Ari, you're a god damn saint. I owe you another steak dinner

I'm loving this thread. So much so that this has become my TFSA in the last several days: Thinking of taking more risk and replacing BMO with something else. Any ideas?

I've not pushed 20k into VTIQ earlier this morning (through my advisor as I'm still a little freaked out handling all my own investments) Ari, what's your prediction for this stock price when the Nikola merger happens?

I just did what you intended to do today (I trust you after that Square recomendation) Let's go VTIQ!

Good sir, I owe you a drink I put a significant amount of money into Square based on this post and reading that article along with several others. Bless your soul

By FAR my favourite local media personality He was so damn entertaining and was able to stir the pot with facts to back him up Let's be honest. Canadian sports media can be pretty dull for the most part but this dude had some flare. RIP Botch you beauty

I'll trade you a highly coveted Ray Ferraro with the Thrashers card for the two of them

For Benning's sake, this kid better turn out to be at least a half decent NHL player otherwise that's the legacy. Him over Tkachuk Right now, Tkachuk is among 10 players in the league that I'd build a team around right now.

WWE and Disney are sending me to the keg tonight. A buddy told me a week ago about the disney announcement of their own streaming service and it was obviously going to be a big deal. Anyone else get into Disney before yesterday's announcement? I bought into WWE at $73 now it's over $95. I'm pretty sure it'll calm down but it's done well for me. I'm considering a sell off soon. Any fell wrassling investors? Both of these company take up a huge chunk of my portfolio. Invest in what you know they say
