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.

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.

The Right Market at The Right Time - Canadian Income Trusts a Screaming Buy / 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.
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.

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.
