Break into the exciting Canadian market for exchange-traded funds
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are an increasingly popular part of the investing landscape, being less volatile than individual stocks, cheaper than most mutual funds, and subject to minimal taxation. ETFs For Canadians For Dummies will guide you through the process of investing in ETFs in Canada, a smaller and sometimes riskier market. You'll get the most up-to-date information on the ETF investing landscape, and we'll help you figure out how to navigate the fast-changing marketplace. This book makes it all easy to understand, and offers updated info on the available ETFs, investment and tax laws, and market projections.
* Invest your money wisely in the Canadian ETF market
* Maximize your profits when you trade on the stock market
* Discover how investing in Canada is different from investing elsewhere
* Learn how to invest online with the latest apps and other tools
This is the book for Canadian investors who want to diversify their investment portfolio and break into exchange traded funds. With the help of Dummies, anyone can learn to invest in ETFs.
