Richard,

I agree that buying stocks listed on Canadian exchanges only through a US broker that trades through a Canadian broker/market maker is a pain and is costly. That is why I moved my accounts to what was Greenline and is now TD Waterhouse. They trade on the Canadian Exchanges directly and offer very economical online service for stocks traded on US exchanges. The VSE and ASE may not be great but I find them to be far better than the OTC BB.

Cheers,
Larry

Richard,

How can on pick a precious metals mutual fund at this time? It seems to me that it is almost impossible to know if the companies they bought into have sold forward. If the market heads south in the coming months, many of those companies could loose everything...and so could the mutual fund. But perhaps you are betting on a smooth transition into '00?
