Canada: Investing in the World's Safest Economy Can Put Profits in Your Pocket / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes:
When a March 25 "no-confidence" vote toppled the government of Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, it also set the stage for a new general election.
This May 2 election will be Canada's third in five years and fourth in seven years. In light of the civil unrest in the Middle East/North Africa (MENA) region - not to mention the financial problems that continue to plague Europe - it would be understandable if global investors added Canada to the "do not invest" list.

Five Ways to Profit From the World's Safest Economy / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes:
I've said it once, and I'll doubtless say it a few dozen more times before the U.S. economy returns to health: Just because you have to endure recessionary conditions doesn't mean that your money has to.
That's the argument I make when I urge Americans to search for investments outside U.S. borders. Ironically, your money doesn't have to travel all that far: What's arguably the world's "safest economy" is actually located just north of the border.

It's Time to Invest in Canada / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes: This isn't the first time that I've written about Canada, a well-run country that has avoided many of the mistakes made by the United States. Its budget deficit is moderate, its balance-of-payments deficit is also small, its banking system is in pretty good shape and it faces very little inflation risk, since the country has maintained a reasonable monetary policy.

Canadian Dollar Rattled by Shanghai Stock Meltdown / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Gary_Dorsch
Bullish investors betting on a V-shaped recovery for the global stock markets are convinced the worst of the global economic crisis is over, and furthermore, expect the emerging economic giants, - Brazil, China, India, Russia, and Korea, (BRICK) to become the locomotives of global growth. With China and India leading the way, the notion of decoupling, - emerging markets advancing faster than developed markets, - and even pulling the G-7 economies out of recession, is making a comeback.

The Only Western Country Where the Banks are Profitable / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Justice_Litle
If you can believe it, there is a land where the bankers are still honest and polite… and even profitable.
First, a quick corrective note. On Wednesday I said that FAZ, at more than 125 million shares traded in recent days, “had bigger trading volume than Microsoft, Intel, Exxon and IBM combined.”

How to Play Canada's Economic and Resources Boom / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Money_and_Markets
Tony Sagami writes: My trip to Canada was fantastic! Sure, I took a wrong turn and temporarily found myself in British Columbia, but I came back from Alberta with a whole new view of Canada.
I knew Canada was very similar to the U.S. in some respects such as its market-oriented economic system and its living standards. But what became increasingly clear from my travels is that the country has transformed from a rural economy into one that is primarily industrial and urban.

Canada's Investing Secrets I Learned in Calgary / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Money_and_Markets
Tony Sagami writes: Woody Allen was absolutely right when he said "80% of success is just showing up." And nowhere is that more true than the world of investing.
I regularly find myself dodging forklifts on busy shipping ports … walking past snarling street dogs in Chinese alleys … or, in my latest trip's case, freezing my buns off in northern Canada.

Energy Trust Takeover Keeps Canada's Conservatives in Tough Spot / Companies / Canadian Stock Market
By: Chip_Hanlon
Because last year's bombshell that Canada would change the way it treated royalty trusts was fraught with political risks, not only did the country's ruling conservatives pull it off with surprising ease at the time, they've dodged all the bullets since. This latest one, however—the announced takeover of PrimeWest Energy Trust by Abu Dhabi 's national oil company—may be a tougher bullet to dodge. Here's why:Read full article... Read full article...

Mergers Abound with Canadian Income Trusts / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Roger_Conrad
Remember when investors could retire and live well on a modest nest egg? Remember when taxes were only 15% a year, and when you didn't have to worry about losing your shirt before the closing bell?
That way of life has gradually been taken from you. But this letter is going to bring it all back, courtesy of the Canadian government.
They've invented a whole new kind of investment, one that's pulling hundreds of billions of US dollars across the border into Canada today.

Remember when taxes were only 15% a year, and when you didn't have to worry about losing your shirt before the closing bell?That way of life has gradually been taken from you. But this letter is going to bring it all back, courtesy of the Canadian government. They've invented a whole new kind of investment, one that's pulling hundreds of billions of US dollars across the border into Canada today.
In a nutshell, Canadian Income Trusts are a brilliant structure that allows a business to avoid taxes--all taxes. That's one pretty obvious reason they're so popular.

Canadian Stock Market - Bear Market has Possibly Begun - TSX - Elliott Wave Analysis / Stock-Markets / Canadian Stock Market
By: Francois_Soto
Wow! What a day!The sharp sell off today in all sorts of equities following the plunge in Asia is slowly confirming that the mood of market participants is now changing from greed to fear. A day like we experienced today is a precursor sign that we are now entering a bear market of larger degree. In this report, we will check what is going on using the Elliott Wave Theory.
To simplify the analysis below, we will only take a look at Canadian equities because we believe the TSX index is by far the easiest to analyze no matter the time frame we are looking at due to the very classical and simplistic patterns it made in the past. In other words, it is less complex than indexes tracking the American equities such as the SPX, INDU and COMPQ but yet still reflects what happens down the border and worldwide.

Canada's surprise change in income trust tax laws / Companies / Canadian Stock Market
By: Shahla_Walayat
Canada's "Conservative" government recently announced a surprise change in the tax laws that could have come straight from the Kremlin's playbook. The tax change regards a new plan to tax Canada's income trusts. Not only does it come out of the blue, it breaks a pledge made by Canada's Conservative government not to change the trust taxation rules.
Trusts, unlike corporations, pay little or no corporate tax because they were set up to take advantage of a loophole in tax rules. The supposedly offsetting factor is that owners of trust units pay higher tax on income from the trust because a break for corporate dividends doesn't apply. With trusts paying no corporate income tax to Canada or to their province of residence, foreigners paid 15-per-cent withholding tax on investment income going out of Canada.
