Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hello 5i Team

Further the many questions on HISA ETF (i.e. CASH, HSAVE, PSA etc.)

The Globe and Mail on February 09, 2023 a summary of the brokers services including availability to purchase HISA ETF; HISA Mutual Funds; and GIC.

Link (may be behind a pay wall) - https://www.theglobeandmail.com/investing/article-canadas-top-digital-broker-is-td-direct-investing-with-an-assist-from/

Essentially the three brokerages which do NOT allow HISA ETF are:

BMO Investor Line
RBC Direct Investing
TD Direct Investing

Regardless most brokers allow access to HISA mutual funds, however you may be restricted to the particular brokerages affiliated products (i.e. Royal Bank at RBC Direct Investing TD Bank at TD Direct Investing).

Thanks

Q: In days like this where there is a sell off in a specific sector, oil in this case. I was wondering if these are the type of days where companies that have a share buyback program would be taking advantage of the drop when it might be a panic induced drop. Is it easy to screen which companies are buying back shares on a particular day? If so, I am curious what were some of companies buying back the most shares today.

If I have an account with a discount broker that is part of a big 5 bank which contains say, $250k of cash, and $250k of, for example BCE stock, is there a greater of losing the cash or the stock in a default? Thanks
