Just discovered Wikiwealth, I am concerned that it doesn't cover Canadian stocks. I feel these are safer investments because:
- our banking system is the safest in the world while still being very profitable.
- our economy is weathering the storm better - we actually saw job growth in October.
- Our government wants to lower corporate taxes, not raise them.
- With the current drop in oil prices, energy stocks are cheap. If the price ever rebounds they will have significant share price growth.
- Our Prime Minister is a true fiscal conservative with a masters in economics, as opposed to your incoming president who as a lawyer would sue banks that didn't issue enough mortgages to unqualified borrowers.
