Great question (and fair) -They are in a few ways. Firstly, they overlap as comparable investments in the eyes of analysts, institutional investors, and valuation models due to shared exposure to high-growth, software-driven and security-critical technology ecosystems: 1) All three are software/IP-heavy with recurring revenue streams (royalties, subscriptions, licensing). 2) They all possess the same thematic exposure: CS, IoT, AI Detection, Recurring Revenue Models 3) Hedge funds & analysts (Barclays, RBC, Morningstar) group them in the same "Secure Connected Infrastructure" / "Edge Intelligence" baskets AND they overlap in holdings: I hope that helped, love these types of questions - keep em coming fam!

Yes - macro correlations are a very real thing. My "defensive" plays right now are Canadian banks (TD, RBC), BRK (love brk), and GAP of all things. I'll hold those thru as big of a drawdown as I need - they'll be fine. Never sell significant stakes in those. Generally what I do once a bear market starts (or we get drawdowns) is just rotate my capital into BRK (or something similar) and... wait. Do literally nothing. Never go to cash (I don't like sitting out incase it bulls back). Most cash gang misses buying back in and get fucked. By staying in the market - that doesn't happen. Once a bull starts again I'll rotate the defensive things into high risk again. At the moment my portfolio is\* quite defensive, but I'm still playing catalysts with calls

PaperHandsTheDip

Pretty much. Volatility hurts - but like - I'm printing this year (6 months). Significantly more than anything else I've seen. My degen portfolio is up over 200% since the bottom. Just take that and sit it out in brk is generally a good play. It's what I usually do (also RBC, TD bank, etc). It's generally not a bad idea / play. You don't miss any runs (they do well) and you never miss buying back in. They're generally much safer in down markets too

PaperHandsTheDip

I never hold cash - I just rotate into safe shit. RBC, TD bank & BRK are my favorite. Then I never miss buying back in. If we start going up / markets turn bullish again I'll monkey back into high risk shit. \--- I trimmed a fuckton of OTM calls today across the board. Took losses on many, didn't matter. Risks too high rn. Locking in a lot of the profits I made over the last 6 months on the bull run. 7 figures is too much to lose / risk because 'I wanted to yolo'

PaperHandsTheDip

Not a bad idea to mitigate risks. I just really don't like puts personally... Prefer holding 'boring stable shit' instead (that does tend to do well). One of my favorites is RBC. \--- My folio got rekt today - lost like 500k. I'm overlevered. I'm up quite massively on this last 6month bull run (7 figures profit from degening) and figure it's a good idea to lock in all gains and just walk away until the next one. \--- I think I've already made up my mind tbh.

DistributionBroad173

It is a bank, they charged you a commission. They charged you a commission of $176, roughly a 10% commission. So, when will you move to an online brokerage and not RBC? If you purchased through an Investment Sales Representative, they charge a MINIMUM $43. My guess you bought 2900 shares they charged you $35 + 0.05 per share that would be $180.

If you guys want to lower risk long term holds -- Canadian banks are typically an alrite bet. I've been bagholding TD & RBC for over 5 years. RBC used to be my largest non options investment. I swapped weightings of RBC & TD a few months ago when TD dipped below $80. The banks tend to trend up, pay a \~3-4% div (anything over 4.5% div is a great buy on them) and they're going nowhere. I loaded up more on TD when it had a \~5% div. Long term they trend up (ie: without divs you'll still make good money) and you just get paid to hold em. Around for over 100yrs, they have investments globally. Kinda an integral part of our financial system. PS: am canadian, so biased.

PaperHandsTheDip

nicely done. My biggest canadian investments really are just our banks lol. I figured they're going nowhere and have a solid dividend. I'll hold them forever and just get paid a 4-5% div (&they're growing). Seemed like a low risk no brianer play to me. Biggest one is currently TD, followed by RBC

The quote was in reference to the FDA's GUIDANCE on the Phase 3 trial's primary endpoint for Efzofitimod. 1) The FDA advised [$ATYR](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/ATYR) to focus the primary efficacy endpoint on a SINGLE, FINAL month of treatment rather than an average over the entire 36-week trial. 2) The FDA's suggestion to simplify the statistical endpoint further IMPROVES the odds of a POSITIVE outcome. 3) The FDA's guidance to aTyr regarding the Phase 3 trial endpoint is a SIGNIFICANT + UNUSUAL event, as it's essentially the FDA making it easier for a company to demonstrate success 4) This type of guidance is a form of expedited development. It's a way for the FDA to help a promising drug get to market faster by simplifying the statistical hurdle.

Depends on the company/app? Certain apps (RBC) will let you buy but some apps may be restricted. Could be due to it being an OTC/penny stock?

You report this as this is against the code of conduct. Ex: high up woman has affair with some dude at work. She gives huge pay raises to that dude and promotion to that dude, based on her romantic ties with that dude, over others that are more qualified. Ex: this is what happened with the ex-CFO of RBC. Shit like this is literal definition of breach of fiduciary duty to shareholders. These high up men and women are supposed to maximize shareholder value. Not cheat, have romance at work, play dirty games, corrupt office politics, prioritize favoritism over merit, etc etc.

AproposName

By all means, listen to OP and post your loss porn. I’ll stick with my 16 years of industry knowledge up to exec roles in the industry. Including at an insurtech currently. Insurance is a whole different beast. Regulatory and capital constraints restrict a companies ability to continue heavily investing in tech if they aren’t profitable. They can set up holding companies to pay for it and keep it off the yellow book, but only if they can justify the cost being allocated elsewhere. That still doesn’t help the capital requirements for RBC and BCAR in the US. If you’re going to invest in insurance, you need to read the GAAP financials and the STAT filings to get a good sense of their true growth potential.

deflatable_ballsack

no, they’re not firms with larger caps than 60b their TAM is limited by approx: - firms with enough FCF to justify a contract (from precedent > 500m revenue) - firms with highly complex multi national, multi-stakeholder operations - firms with massive data integration challenges and high stakes decision making - The targets are therefore giants in aerospace, pharmaceutical, energy grids, logistics, and govt/military. - the above already excludes the vast majority of companies. - small firms can’t justify it and have much more cost effective solutions - majority of large firms are *already Palantir internally* i.e. Apple, Toyota etc - “Only 29% of large companies lack full upstream and downstream data integrations with governance roles in place” - Mckinsey - Government contracts are inherently limited in scope, and foreign governments/firms are naturally difficult to acquire (Palantirs Europe TCV actually decreased YoY). Going by the above criteria, that’s how I got to approx. 20b (which I also still think is a bit high). And for your final point: - “only 2 out of 12 analysts rate Palantir as “buy” or equivalent, with 7 “hold” ratings and 3 “sell” rating” - Morningstar analysts directly acknowledge the TAM issue, describing Palantir’s TAM as “truly a trillion-dollar question that is unfortunately laden with assumptions”. They assign Palantir a “Very High Uncertainty Rating” - Critically, Morningstar warns that “if our bear case on TAM emerges, the shares will likely prove worth far less than we expect” - Jefferies maintains an “underperform” rating with a $60 price target (62% downside from current levels), with analyst Brent Thill noting that while Palantir shows “strong fundamentals,” its valuation is misaligned with even the most optimistic growth projections - RBC analyst Rishi Jaluria explicitly accused Palantir of “AI washing,” stating that “actual technologists who are deep into AI and machine learning are expressing skepticism around Palantir” In my opinion, anyone who is invested in Palantir is going to get burned hard. The company is trading purely on the greater fools theory.

heres my dd: (not ai, about 12 hours of backwards looking through 99 garbage sources and about 1-2 good ones, Rocket Companies is expanding beyond just being a mortgage lender, priced around forward fair value in my eyes, but struggling recently. report sourcing various catalysts is too blurry to post but can be asked for in replies * Jefferies raised PT from $11.50 → $14.00 * Goldman Sachs: $16.00 * RBC: $18.00 (bull case) * Current price: \~$16.01 (as of July 22, 2025) Obviously outlooks short term don't look great, Rocket Companies is going through a strategic change. It is currently developing into a vertically integrated real estate ecosystem after previously being perceived mainly as a mortgage lender. This presents several problems short term with integration costs and all that, however, Rocket now has complete control over the home-buying process, including search, financing, and servicing, thanks to the acquisitions of Redfin and Mr. Cooper. They are in a position to simplify client acquisition and discover platform-wide synergies thanks to this consolidation. FCF shows to improve, revenue is projected to grow 20% q/q even by bearish standards, and the company is poised (and expected) to deliver 30+% CAGR through near the end of the decade. Ignoring options activity and current float and SI, its still a solid play, but at 67% on a tiny float, it doesn't take much to move this, not even good news, just a LACK of bad news. Additionally, rapid margin growth can be expected as volumes and applications rise q/q/q P/S P/B and forward values are in line or BEAT peers, even compared to hot names like SOFI... Agree or not, the housing market is on its way back up at some point, and I plan on riding this $RKT with it, cheers.

Hello!  - Seeking insight/advice on managed funds & brokerages I recently was fortunate to receive an inheritance spread across numerous brokerages.  Over the past 3 years I’ve consolidated it down to 2, and I’m about to make the last change to bring everything under 1 roof. I’m looking for insight from anyone who has gone through this or a similar situation.   At this point I’m comfortable with paying the brokerage fee’s, as I don’t feel educated enough to take on managing the funds myself quite yet.  My main questions and concerns are with the unrealized gains that have accumulated over the years, and if its worth it to rebalance/reinvest if I go choose a brokerage that mainly invests in ETF/funds vs individual stock.  I’m currently with RBC and Edward Jones which mainly have individual stocks, but have met with JP Morgan and Texas Capital which would be more ETF/fund heavy.  Likely wont stay with RBC for several reasons, and I’ve been told by several managers that the EJ account is a mess.  Main reason for creating this post:  \-          Looking at around 300k in unrealized gains that would take several years to reinvest if done slowly to lessen the tax burden.  The majority of this is individual stocks. \-          If you went with the rebalance/strategy change route, do you feel it was worth it in the long run? Side info that would be fantastic to know: \-          Leaning towards JP Morgan(lowest overhead & clearest investment strategy), do you have positives/negatives to share? \-          Any other companies that I should interview with or have an overall better satisfaction/return rate? I appreciate any info you can share, and if you need more specific information, just let me know.  Thanks!

CIPF (Canadian Investor Protection Fund) covers security investment insurance for individuals, as long as you are with a member bank or brokerage (which is basically every bank/brokerage in the country.) I forget the total coverage but it’s something like $1m for each account. Holding stock directly in your name is not necessarily more secure. It is definitely more expensive and way less convenient and liquid. In a world where TD and RBC are going bankrupt your stocks certificates under your floor boards are probably worthless anyway and even if they’re not you would need to add them to a brokerage account to trade them anyways.

https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2025-06-27/tesla-s-800-billion-robotaxi-dream-is-finally-facing-reality Tesla’s $800 Billion Robotaxi Dream Is Finally Facing Reality - Bloomberg On generous assumptions, Tesla’s core EV business, generating 75% of gross profit but with falling sales, might be worth roughly $50 per share, only 15% of the current price. 1Much of the remainder relates to expectations around self driving. RBC Capital, for example, ascribes 59% of its price target, or $181 per share, to robotaxis and a further $53 to monetizing Full Self Driving technology. Combined, that is a cool $815 billion based on double-digit multiples ascribed to modeled revenue — not earnings — 10 to 15 years from now because, after all, it relates to businesses that barely make money today. Subject to revision, then, but that works to Tesla’s advantage. Consider: Over the past two years, Tesla’s EV business has stalled, its Cybertruck launch has flopped, a promised low-cost model remains elusive and earnings have slumped. Yet since Musk pivoted hard toward robotaxis and robots in early 2024, its multiple has more than doubled to around 140 times forward earnings. Calls

"It's remarkable to have such a limited risk premium in the face of this uncertainty and potential for escalation," oil scholar Ben Cahill of the University of Texas-Austin told Axios via email. There's geopolitical risk premium built into what's a well-supplied market — you can see the initial jump when Israel struck Iran on June 13. But prices are not heading into orbit despite Iran's parliament weekend saber-rattling about closing the Strait of Hormuz. Brent prices rose around 5% when trading opened last night but quickly fell back. By mid-afternoon Monday, they had fallen sharply — to under $70 a barrel — after Iran attacked the U.S. military base in Qatar in retaliation. Traders don't appear to believe — for now — that the conflict will expand in ways that significantly stymie oil flows in the region. "The market continues to shrug off more geopolitical risk than I would have thought possible a few years ago," Cahill said. "But that's been the story of the oil market since Oct 7, 2023, and arguably since Abqaiq," he said, referring to the 2019 strikes on the vital Saudi crude oil stabilization center. The aftermath of Iranian proxies' strikes on the site offers a lesson, said Ellen Wald, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council. "Traders learned from the Abqaiq attacks that Aramco has incredible reserves of crude oil stored away and the ability to tap into that to ensure the uninterrupted flow of oil." With the Saudis currently holding back considerable output, an oil market disruption would be temporary, she adds. Wald told Axios it would be "incredibly difficult" for Iran to block the strait that handles about a fifth of the global oil trade. Iran retains capacity to interfere with the strait in ways that prompt shippers to avoid it, RBC Capital Markets' Helima Croft said in a note, though extended closure would be very tough given the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet in Bahrain. "\[W\]e do not believe it is a 'full closure or nothing' scenario when it comes to the waterway, and Iran may deploy their asymmetric capabilities to raise the economic cost of the combined US/Israeli operations," she writes.

Help choosing ETFs Hey all, 34 year old here with annual income of about 120k CAD. I have $50,000 that I threw into a redeemable GIC last December until I got my head on straight and figured out what to do with it. I would like to invest it all in ETFs, but am unsure specifically which ones and why. If any of you had 50Gs to invest, where would you put it? I bank with RBC and live in British Columbia if that makes a difference. I'm looking for specifics here if anyone is kind enough to share their knowledge. I don't know when I'll need to pull it out, but probably not for at least a couple years if at all. Hopefully it will just grow into my retirement money. Bonus question: I was doubling up on mortgage payments for the longest time because I just didn't know what to do with my money (mortgage rate is 5.22%). Is this a dumb idea and I should just invest the extra money rather than put it on the mortgage? Thanks all

For someone your age, 30 years is a better investment horizon. That being said, picking stocks is incredibly difficult to do, very hard to beat the indices. If I were you, I would put 80%-90% in $VOO, then pick a few stocks you have confidence in for the remaining 10%-20%. I personally am invested in robotics actuator hardware like $RRX and $RBC, but that’s just my personal guess. I also have $SOFI which is a bank that I use. It’s always good to think about growth of a company when picking a stock, so researching what you use all the time can be helpful.

Quantum BioPharma (QNTM) has hired legal representation for a significant legal battle, specifically targeting alleged stock price manipulation by several financial institutions. The company has filed an amended complaint seeking damages exceeding $700,000,000 USD from CIBC World Markets, RBC Dominion Securities, and others, [according to GlobeNewswire](https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2025/05/05/3073947/0/en/Quantum-Biopharma-Files-Amended-Complaint-Against-CIBC-World-Markets-RBC-Dominion-Securities-and-Others-Seeking-Damages-in-Excess-of-700-000-000-USD-for-Possible-Stock-Price-Manipu.html). The lawsuit names Freedman Normand Friedland LLP and Christian Attar as legal counsel, both known for their expertise in securities litigation and market manipulation cases, [according to Stocktwits](https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/how-this-4-stock-is-taking-on-wall-street-s-big-banks-with-a-700-million-lawsuit/cJaVF8cR1Z). This action is part of Quantum BioPharma's broader strategy to address what they believe is wrongful activity impacting their stock price.  This is a company that is activily fighting naked shorting. By DRSing shares, they are in the process of locking them up. They have more shares DRS's than GME in weeks. If you hate naked shorts like i do, join the fight. Stock is going up and as more people buy and lock them up, the stock price will continue to go up. If you buy, DRS your shares or set a high sell order.

"“It is our understanding that it would be extremely difficult for Iran to close the strait for an extended period given the presence of the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain. Nevertheless, Iran could still launch attacks on tankers and mine the strait to disrupt maritime traffic,” said Croft, head of global commodity strategy and MENA research at RBC."

Love the setup! Tesla may disrupt, but RBC and 81% analysts see more upside than downside. If it flips 83.84 with volume, this could be a high‑alpha trade

Hey bro it might sound dumb but why not ask the person that knows. What is an interactive broker, RBC? ASX?

No I threw $3700 and watched it for 2 years go down -80%. They got bought out and I switched most of my stuff to interactive brokers and stopped using RBC around the same time. I would of sold this and transferred the cash if i could trade the ASX

I am extremely new and green to investing. I just turned 30 and I want to start investing what I can each month and have it grow over the next 30-35 years until retirement. How would you recommend I invest this money? I am just looking for pointer/tips so that I can do some more research into what it is I want to do. And yes I know I have a lot of research and learning to do. For context, I am Canadian with a direct investing account TFSA account with RBC. Not sure if this information matters.

Also Scotiabank is perhaps ranked only 3rd of the big six banks. RBC and TD hold spots 1 and 2.

ScotiaBank has a reputation of unnecessarily expanding into Latin American and then getting its ass spanked every couple of years. The big ones to watch are RBC and TD. No, Canada isn’t screwed. It will be a bumpy ride but the Orangeclown will eventually cave it trying to fleece countries
