Home (not so) Sweet Home
In 1989 Peter Lynch, the manager of the fabulously successful Magellan mutual fund wrote a book called “One Up on Wall Street”. The book has never gone out of print and is most famous for one piece of advice: “Buy what you know.” Rather than relying only on traditional financial statement-based analysis, Lynch would go out into the world and observe how people acted, what they bought, and how manufacturers and retailers met their needs. If a particular brand seemed to be doing very well, take a look at the stock. If a car dealer’s show room was full of stale inventory ..read more

Before 1972 there was no tax on capital gains in Canada. In that year, as part of a major overhaul of the tax scheme, capital gains taxes were imposed. The inclusion rate for capital gains (the percentage subject to tax) has varied over the years from the present level of 50% to as high as 100%, with stops (both in the year 2000) at 75% and 66% along the way. Now we are going back to 66% inclusion, which means that the effective tax rate for those in the top backet will go from around 27% to around 36% on realized gains. To make matters more complicated, for individuals the first $250,000 of g ..read more
