  1. Ron/BC Says:

    EQ Bank is now paying 5.1% on a one year GIC which can be put into a TFSA for a tax free investment. Rates are likely to get that much higher but layering in money on these guaranteed rates is a good bet.

  2. David Says:

    #1 thanks Ron for the info. sounds great for a short term.

  3. FishFat Says:

    On the topic of banks, ZEB.to – BMO’s equal weighted Canadian Banks ETF has formed a double bottom basing pattern on the weekly chart. The PPO indicator has recently made a bullish cross of the signal line and there is positive divergence on multiple indicators. These are all encouraging and suggest bullish potential. Seasonality for Canadian banks is generally positive, at least until early December.
