Canadian ETF issuers

Alternatively, GlobeInvestor.com also provides a stock filter that can be used to search for ETFs. Go to the following URL

There have been annual stock picks contest among Canadian bloggers. You can check the result of last year’s contest here. The winner was Intelligent Speculator with 81.56% return, mostly because of Baidu.

Just like previous years, there is a stock picks contest this year. As a new Canadian blogger, we try to participate in the contest. Our stock picks for 2010 is: ASIA, CAGC, ITC and PEGA (see also our posting here). We don’t expect too much since this is our first contest.

In order to monitor the result of this contest, we have setup a Google Docs spreadsheet and embed in this page (you can also click “Contest” link at the top of this page). It has live stock prices; so you can see live performance of each blogger. As of today, the top 3 positions are:

Four-Pillars.ca: +3.48%
1stmilliondollar.net: +0.63%
WhereDoesAllMyMoneyGo.com: –0.10%
