Except that there is no "deep sense of embarrassment" for Canada. We don't have the circus the US has, non-stop bs for years on end, crisis after crisis no end. Some Americans ( including several on here ) can hook onto every negative story about Canada in order to think things are just as bad...

Ignorant Americans like you are hated for good reason. Nobody is going to be grateful that an under educated idiot like you wants to kill entire nations of people and has the audacity to write those ideas on a public forum.

I can't help you if you can't accept the reality of the Toronto real estate market as experienced by a long term home owner in Toronto. Believe what you want. There is plenty of data out there that supports everything I've claimed on this thread, and I have the benefit of local knowledge and...

You are wrong on this, and seem too young to understand any of this with proper context. The percentage of Toronto homes that are subject to flipping and foreign speculation is a very small number. The government policy you referred to has been widely criticized for missing the mark on why...

Toronto and Vancouver markets are quite different then each other. There is far less speculation and foreign ownership in Toronto ( statistics are there to support this ). Toronto is an extremely tight market with a lot of long term owners. IT growth is a recent trend on top of an already tight...

The Toronto market isn't dependent on "Chinese money".

There is so much wrong with this statement. The majority of posters on here declared Toronto a real estate in a bubble as far back as 2010, that the SPX was a great short from 2010-2013, that that AAPL was overvalued in 2003, ... . In reality. the SPX, AAPL, and Toronto real estate were some of...

First explanation is they aren't "bubble" valuations.

There are numerous potential issues in the US. Even if nothing bad happens, the interest rate policy in Canada is far more likely to result in steady or higher interest rates then the US. That in itself will be bullish for $CDN/$US all other things staying equal. When 2009 occurred, within 2...

This isn't true at all. Our federal debt to GDP level is where the US levels used to be before the economic crash ( and the US explosion of new debt ), our housing markets remain strong with almost no exposure to China ( the whole idea that it's Asians propping up out housing market is a myth...

I don't see the point. Canada isn't even shown and Canada is larger then the US.

Seems to me some Americans on here love to complain about the Canadian medical system but frankly it's great you pay very small yearly premiums ( $0 to $900 depending on income per adult taxpayer ), no deductibles, and are completely covered for catastrophic events in the unlikely event you need...

The guy who founded Zerohedge was banned from trading because he was caught doing insider trading. Those who take trading advice from a crook deserve whatever happens to them. Can't imagine many people did well basing any of their financial decisions on what they read on that ridiculous site.

Canadians have zero interest in being part of the US. Too many Americans don't understand Canada and float absurd ideas. So much of what is occurring in the US is messed up right now; why would anyone want your headaches as a choice ?

So true, he could be a troll for all we know. Memories of a group of posters on here around 8-9 years ago who insisted all stock moves were a random walk. Any trend including a strong persistent one they still insisted was a random walk.

No PPT any day concerning equity markets. If someone has evidence otherwise, let's see it. I'm far more interested in real factors like corporate buy backs, mutual fund / etf holdings in the stock market, corporate profits and dividends.

Fed policy is mostly concerned about the US economy not stock markets. Those who don't understand this will be forever struggling to understand where markets may go and why. I like to look at the underlying motivations of all the big players, ask what they are most likely to do in most...

Not true, because investing in quality companies is big time positive long term. The problem comes when traders refuse to consider long term factors and get caught simply reacting to short term factors trading against other traders.

Trump's buried himself in thousands of ways the media doesn't need any new reasons to highlight his ineptitude and lack of moral character. The fact he's inferring Clinton was involved reflects on the possibility that Trump is mentally ill. That aspect should be relevant to the world regardless...

Yes that's exactly what I'm saying moron. It's all in your head. Go ahead, let's hear from this guy who got canned and why I am supposedly responsible. Produce the evidence ( you can't ) or rescind your claim. Stop being a useless prick and be accountable for your actions and words.
