Then there’s the Hamilton Canadian Bank Mean Reversion Index ETF (HCA), which tracks the Solactive Canadian Bank Mean Reversion Index TR. Every quarter, HCA typically allocates 80% of its portfolio to the three banks that have underperformed recently, and 20% to the three that have outperformed, banking (pun intended!) on the idea that underperformers could bounce back. These custom strategies can come at a higher cost. TBNK charges a 0.28% MER, RBNK comes in at 0.32%, and HCA tops the list at 0.45%. So far, those extra fees haven’t translated into major outperformance. From May 2023 to May 2025, total returns for…

From the off, ‘Words Worth Buying’ is a pumping hip-hop anthem that grabs the listener by the first bar with its profound lyricism and infectious flows. This single boasts an intriguing concept of C.Ville’s words worth ‘buying,’ as he separates himself from the UK generic rap scene with more impressive lyricism and incessant melodies. Drawing from authentically personal themes of how he’s had to hustle his way through life to make his dreams a reality, C.Ville recorded “Words…

The short answer I, and any credible market-watcher, will give is: I don’t know. Markets are by their nature unpredictable. A few supposed seers correctly guessed the last bear market, and others will probably foresee the next one. The fact is that someone, somewhere, is always predicting a crash.

What we do know about the stock market MoneySense contributing editor Michael McCullough The first thing to keep in mind is that…
