For those who like surprises, the stock markets have not disappointed in 2020. The S&P 500 surged to new heights despite the economy-clenching COVID-19 pandemic powering around the globe, and individual investors’ participation in trading reached a 10-year high during the first half of this year. Still, Canadians have generally remained cautious. Although 77% of us say we invest, nearly half (47%) are saving cash, with millennials most likely to shun the markets (57% are holding savings in cash), according to a BMO RRSP Study conducted by Pollara Strategic Insights.
