XEQT
ISHARES CORE EQUITY ETF PORTFOLIO
stock TSE

Know what was a liberating mind game? If I buy physical gold or silver I'm getting that dopamine hit from making a large purchase **and** I'm investing in myself and my future.
I'm a mix of XEQT/Gold/Silver and riding it out for the next 25yrs.

it took me losing 70k to learn my lesson… now 70% of my port is XEQT. Margin is a helluva drug.

XEQT. Don’t mess around with your retirement account, like it’s the one account to not do that shit in.

XEQT because I’m in too deep to quit now, and SKE because their development and funding plan looks promising

IBRX is up 5.75% today
It dipped this week but today it's going up
Did you sell before it started to go up again?
But yeah XEQT is the way to go if you can't stomach big swings or don't have time to babysit your portfolio

It’s hard not to get emotional when you see the red days, especially when they dip hard like today. In any case, your reaction is normal. XEQT is a fair play. Zoom out on the chart and days like this are just blips.

XEQT it is then 🤘

Better to learn it now than later down the road when those losses hurt even more.. nothing wrong with XEQT

I don’t know you, but you might want to rethink your risk tolerance and strategy.
Being in XEQT doesn’t mean you can’t lose money short term.
I’m in my 20s and I don’t have much experience, but I clearly remember March 16, 2020. The market dropped about 13% in a single day, and trading was halted multiple days during the same week.
It didn’t stop there. In a little over a month, the Dow was down around 37%. The whole world was shutting down and there was zero good news anywhere.
Everything feels easy when markets only go up. It’s a different story when you’re deep in the red.

That stock could go to $0 tho and that'sstressful. 
If XEQT goes to $0 then the losses are the least of his worries.

You should have hold it if it was a small portion of your portfolio just in principle and may be sell much later at a set point in time to rebalance. Selling with this drop shows you can not deal with the volatility with any asset class and will panic. What do you think you will do if XEQT drops 20 30 40%? There will also be a reason and you will convince yourself again that the narrative changed or was actually always different. For some reason you did not think metals could crash that much when you bought it, but anything can crash. Metals have always been volatile. It now seems obvious that it was overheated, but we have seen many times that does not mean a drop is imminent. Now watch it rally again and to take a new all time high after big traders shook off weak hands to profit.

Im not scared of a lost with XEQT because i'm minded for long term (25+ years). Im well informed about what is XEQT.
Even if it goes down 30% tomorrow im not going to sell.

Why did you sell? Were you expecting to flip a profit in a few months? That's not investing, that's trading.
When you buy a stock you should be in it for the long haul unless something fundamentally changes that would trigger you to sell it off (aside from trimming to re-balance, take profits etc...). Did the outlook on the stocks you sold fundamentally change?
If you're this spooked then yes, stick to XEQT. It looks like you sized things well as this was only 5% of your portfolio, but why the heck would you panic sell that amount? Some positions are going to be in the red for years... that's just how she goes.

Stock picking isn’t for me — back to XEQT

I’m in XEQT because I don’t wanna think about the uncertainty of a specific sector or region doing bad and that’s the only region and sector I am in.
Less returns in comparison to say 100% in VFV but if the US lags then over 20 years from now returns could be diminishing as opposed to a all world equity

What a great day to lower my XEQT average price!
(Yes, I got in late into investing)

Low cost, broad market, globally diversified index funds are the best way to achieve the greatest total risk-adjusted return.
If 100% equities matches your risk profile, XEQT is a great choice.

The vast majority of stocks will underperform XEQT in the long run, and it's unlikely you've picked some of the few stocks that will outperform. Your portfolio will likely underperform 100% XEQT, but if you're ok with that than keep doing what you're doing.

Just buy XEQT and be done with it mate.

In TFSA you don't get capital losses when you sell so I think its best to invest in XEQT or something like that. If you are a true river boat gambler than buying risky stuff in your TFSA can pay off, but if you are panicking down 15% that isn't you.
Do your YOLOs in your taxable account so when it fails you at least get the cap loss out of it.
