The word of the day is: Capitulation.
I guess Puts gonna print this morning.
I’ve read several books and listened to numerous podcasts, and the conclusion that resonates with me is that to outperform Warren Buffett, one must outlive him. Considering that he’s been in the market for nearly 80+ years.
True that... But also the fact that now he's so big that he can't take advantage of a lot of the smaller cap opportunities that the average investor can.

Who’s buying BULL?
Just been doing some lower-risk investments of late.
$7000 for the annual TFSA contribution (been maxing that out since the program started in 2009)
Just under $2000 for RRSP (didn't have much room available due to pension adjustment)
$14,000 also for TFSA (from prior years invested and sitting in savings)
Had a larger 110,000 GIC mature recently in the 3rd week of April. It had been tucked away for 18 months.

As I've said over the years in a few of the finance threads, the 1st half of the year for me eats up the $ a bit. The bulk of the saving in the 2nd half of the year. As the 1st half of the year includes ...
1st or 2nd quarter - TFSA and RRSP contributions
Feb - annual utilities
April - home insurance / tax season
May - car insurance
June - property taxes

Do you own any ChargePoint stock? I’m considering buying it because it’s down about 95% from its all-time high. I’m hoping it can recover some of its losses. The video below got me interested in it.
I don't, but my wife is bag holding it. Did you see that Walmart will have their own charging network? They'll be using their store parking lots. So much competition out there.
Chargepoint is not on my radar, but at that price someone could buy them out.
All the walmart I have charge at has been using eltricfy america. And yes their Alot more competition is coming in the charging space.

Also just moved 11,000 from RRSP savings into an RRSP GIC.
Otherwise just waiting on the following larger investments to mature. TFSA accounts are tax-free savings and you can put them wherever you want. This year's maximum contribution room was $7000. The larger value below was from a different account transferred over a few years back. I hope the CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) eventually allows for larger max' contribution room. Most people think 10 - 12,000 annually would be great.
The RRSP account is registered retirement ... I don't plan to retire for another 14 or so years, and don't need access to that money for another 20 years ...
A 95,000 TFSA GIC on November 30th, 2025
An RRSP GIC of just under 150,000 (for 18 months) on July 18th, 2026
