If we show a \"Promoted\" pick, it's been chosen from among our commercial partners and is based on factors that include special features or offers, and the commission we receive.<\/p>\n                        <p>This isn't an exhaustive list of all the trading platforms out there. What's best for you depends on your own investing strategy, budget and financial goals.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \n<h3 id=\"1\">Step 1: Compare Canadian brokers that let you trade US stocks<\/h3><p>Before signing up to a new account or a broker, it\u2019s important to check which countries and exchanges are accessible and what the associated fees are. By using a platform that offers access to US exchanges, you can deposit funds into your account and buy US stocks in Canada.<\/p><p>When finding the best platform for buying US stocks in Canada, consider the following factors.<\/p><h4>Fees<\/h4><p>You may be charged a trading commission plus a foreign exchange (FX) fee when trading US stocks. Some platforms may require you to pay a monthly fee in order to keep your account running or to access certain features.<\/p><p>Commissions might be higher for trading foreign stocks and may be charged as a percentage or fixed amount. You may want to look for brokers that offer USD accounts, so you don\u2019t pay a conversion fee every time you trade.<\/p><h4>International market access<\/h4><p>A few Canadian platforms like Interactive Brokers make it easy to trade stocks on markets outside the US and Canada. If you want to trade on more than just US and Canadian exchanges, check the fine print to find out which exchanges you can access worldwide. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/how-to-buy-international-shares\">Learn more about buying international stocks<\/a>.<\/p><h4>Account &amp; order types<\/h4><p>Can you open registered, non-registered, cash and\/or margin accounts? What types of securities can you access (stocks, ETFs, mutual funds etc.)? Do you always intend to place market orders, which let you buy at the current market price, or do you want the flexibility of placing limit orders, which let you automatically buy when the price reaches a predetermined threshold?<\/p><h4>Ease of use<\/h4><p>Check customer reviews and promotional videos to get a feel for how easy a platform will be to use. Is it fast, simple and convenient to execute a trade and monitor market performance?<\/p><h4>Market research and advice<\/h4><p>Find out whether the broker offers stock research and market analysis to help inform your trading decisions. Does it make it easy to keep up to date with the latest market news? Are there stock recommendations provided?<\/p><h4>Market data<\/h4><p>Check how up-to-date each platform\u2019s market data is. Accessing the most current information can be critical when making investment decisions.<\/p><h4>Trading tools<\/h4><p>Is the platform just online or can you also place trades over the phone? Are flexible options like limit orders available to let you take advantage of market fluctuations?<\/p><h4>Educational resources<\/h4><p>Look for online educational resources that will teach you how to use the platform, how the stock market works, and how to invest in international stocks. These include webinars, video tutorials and how-to guides.<\/p><h4>Mobile app<\/h4><p>If you want to be able to trade on the go, look for a stock trading platform with a user-friendly mobile app. Read customer reviews to gauge its ease of use, security and trading functionality.<\/p><h4>Customer support<\/h4><p>Don\u2019t forget to find out how you can access customer support if you have a problem, such as phone, live chat and email. Will support be available during US market hours?<\/p><h4 id=\"buyusshares\">Compare online platforms for investing in US stocks from Canada<\/h4><p>Not all brokers or trading platforms provide access to global stock exchanges, so if you want to buy and sell US shares, you\u2019ll need to find one that offers the service.<\/p><div class=\"content tableWithFilters\n        \n        \n

Score<\/a>. Trading costs, account fees and features across 10+ stock trading platforms and apps are all weighted and scaled to produce a score out of 10. The higher the score, the better the platform\u2014it's that simple.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"luna-button luna-button--primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/trading-platforms-ratings-methodology\">Read the full methodology<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<a class=\"more-link-arrow\" title=\"Related\" href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/best-stock-trading-apps-in-canada\">Best stock trading platforms and apps in Canada<\/a><h3 id=\"2\">Step 2: Open a trading account<\/h3><p>Once you\u2019ve chosen a stock trading platform, it\u2019s time to sign up for an account. You\u2019ll need to be at least the age of majority in your province or territory (18 or 19 years old) and have a Canadian residential address.<\/p><p>You can apply online by providing:<\/p><ul><li>Your name and date of birth<\/li><li>Your address and contact details<\/li><li>Your Social Insurance Number (SIN)<\/li><li>Proof of ID<\/li><\/ul><p>Fill out a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/w-8ben-form\">W-8BEN form<\/a> to confirm you\u2019re not a US tax resident and avoid being double taxed in Canada and the US. Most platforms and apps let you fill out a W-8BEN form online. You\u2019ll also need to link your bank account to your stock trading account.<\/p><h3 id=\"3\">Step 3: Fund your account<\/h3><p>Once your account is open, you can deposit money into it. Available transfer methods may include debit, bank transfer, wire transfer, or bill payment. Funds may arrive within a few days, depending on the payment method you choose.<\/p><p>Don\u2019t forget to factor in currency conversion costs when depositing Canadian dollars, which will need to be converted to USD before you can trade. Be aware of the exchange rate and any conversion fees that apply.<\/p><h3 id=\"4\">Step 4: Buy US stocks<\/h3><p>When you\u2019re ready to buy US stocks, log in to your online account and search for the US stock or ETF you want to invest in. Select the number of shares you want to purchase, and place a buy order.<\/p><p>Use your platform\u2019s education resources to learn how to trade and hone in on smart investments.<\/p><h3>Is it better to buy Canadian or American stocks?<\/h3><p>One of the biggest advantages of investing in American stocks over Canadian stocks is that you can access a much larger market with more investment choices. This is great for diversifying your portfolio and increasing the liquidity of your investments\u2014with more investors and publicly traded companies across a wide variety of sectors and industries, it\u2019s not difficult to buy and sell assets.<\/p><p>That being said, you don\u2019t have to choose between Canadian and US stocks. Consider investing in both. Holding assets in different markets lets you take advantage of economic spikes in multiple regions and minimize losses if one market periodically outperforms the other.<\/p><h3>How much does it cost to invest in US stocks?<\/h3><p>There are two key fees you need to consider when investing in US stocks from Canada:<\/p><ol><li><strong>Trade commissions.<\/strong> This is a fee charged every time you place a buy or sell order.

Here are some of the reasons.<\/p><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1043023\" title=\"Image: Finder\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/12\/checkmark_Finder_150x150.png\" alt=\"green check mark\" width=\"23\" height=\"23\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/12\/checkmark_Finder_150x150.png?fit=69 69w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 69px) 100vw, 69px\" loading=\"lazy\">Historically greater returns from buying US stocks<\/h4><p>The US economy is one of the most powerful in the world. In the last decade, the S&amp;P 500 index has delivered an average return of 13.66%. Over the same time period, Canada\u2019s similar index, the S&amp;P\/TSX Composite, has returned 9.54%.<\/p><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1043023\" title=\"Image: Finder\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/12\/checkmark_Finder_150x150.png\" alt=\"green check mark\" width=\"23\" height=\"23\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/12\/checkmark_Finder_150x150.png?fit=69 69w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 69px) 100vw, 69px\" loading=\"lazy\">Access to US market<\/h4><p>Many more companies trade on US exchanges than Canadian exchanges. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/invest-in-nyse\">NYSE<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/how-to-invest-in-nasdaq\">Nasdaq<\/a> are the two largest stock exchanges in the world in terms of market capitalization, offering a number of lucrative investment opportunities.<\/p><p>Many of the world\u2019s biggest global growth companies, such as Facebook (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/buy-meta-platforms-stock\">Meta<\/a>), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/buy-amazon-stock\">Amazon<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/buy-apple-stock\">Apple<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/buy-netflix-stock\">Netflix<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/buy-alphabet-stock\">Google<\/a> (collectively part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/magnificent-seven-stocks\">Magnificent Seven<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/faang-stocks\">FAANG stocks<\/a>) are listed in the US.<\/p><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1043023\" title=\"Image: Finder\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/12\/checkmark_Finder_150x150.png\" alt=\"green check mark\" width=\"23\" height=\"23\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/12\/checkmark_Finder_150x150.png?fit=69 69w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 69px) 100vw, 69px\" loading=\"lazy\">Diversify your portfolio by buying US stocks in Canada<\/h4><p>Aside from opportunities to profit, it\u2019s important to have a diversified portfolio of stocks. This means investing in companies from a range of sectors as well as countries. If Canada\u2019s economy slows down, stocks listed in another country can act as a buffer.<\/p><h3>What are the risks of buying US stocks in Canadian dollars?<\/h3><p>Investing in an area, industry or country which you know little about is always risky. When buying American stocks in Canada, you may not have the same knowledge and expertise. So, it pays to make sure you know what you\u2019re getting into.<\/p><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1048099\" title=\"Image: Finder\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/08\/warningicon_127x127.png\" alt=\"warning symbol icon\" width=\"23\" height=\"23\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/08\/warningicon_127x127.png?fit=69 69w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 69px) 100vw, 69px\" loading=\"lazy\">Exchange rates<\/h4><p>Unlike trading Canadian stocks, you\u2019ll be on the hook for exchange fees for buying stocks in US dollars. When converting Canadian dollars into US dollars, the investment platform will likely add a small fee onto the exchange rate. This usually amounts to a small percentage of the exchanged amount.<\/p><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1048099\" title=\"Image: Finder\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/08\/warningicon_127x127.png\" alt=\"warning symbol icon\" width=\"23\" height=\"23\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/08\/warningicon_127x127.png?fit=69 69w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 69px) 100vw, 69px\" loading=\"lazy\">Currency conversion fees<\/h4><p>Many brokerages charge a currency conversion fee on top of the exchange rate markup. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/international-money-transfers\/currency-exchange-rates\/cad-usd-exchange-rate\">CAD-USD rate<\/a> fluctuates frequently, which might negatively impact your investment. Make sure to factor these costs into your investment when buying US stocks in Canadian dollars.<\/p><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1048099\" title=\"Image: Finder\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/08\/warningicon_127x127.png\" alt=\"warning symbol icon\" width=\"23\" height=\"23\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/08\/warningicon_127x127.png?fit=69 69w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 69px) 100vw, 69px\" loading=\"lazy\">Taxation<\/h4><p>Do you have to pay tax on US stocks? If you hold US assets and live in Canada, you\u2019re responsible for paying a 15% withholding tax to the IRS. However, this generally doesn\u2019t apply if you hold US stocks or ETFs in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/savings-accounts\/rrsp\">Registered Retirement Saving Plan (RRSP)<\/a> or Registered Retirement Income Fund (RRIF).<\/p><p>However, the CRA lets you claim a foreign tax credit for the withholding tax you paid, so you\u2019re taxed twice. If you earn capital gains from selling a US stock or ETF, you\u2019ll pay tax to the CRA, not the IRS. Find out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/stock-trading-cra\">how stock investments are taxed in Canada<\/a> to avoid finding yourself on the wrong side of the CRA.<\/p><h3>What is the best way to buy US stocks in Canada?<\/h3><p>The best way to buy US stocks from Canada depends on your investment knowledge and goals.<\/p><p>For example, if you\u2019re a first-time investor looking to steadily grow your wealth, you may want to invest in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/exchange-traded-funds-etfs\">exchange-traded funds (ETFs)<\/a>. ETFs offer a relatively safe, easy and cost-effective way to buy into a variety of US stocks.<\/p><p>Did you know you don\u2019t need to trade on US markets to invest in US stocks? There are hundreds of ETFs listed on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/how-to-invest-in-tsx\">Toronto Stock Exchange<\/a> that track US stocks. One example is the BMO S&amp;P 500 Index ETF, which aims to replicate the performance of the S&amp;P 500 index.<\/p><p>But if you prefer to personally curate and manage your own investment portfolio, you can buy stocks in individual companies.<\/p><h4>Canadian depositary receipts: An alternative way to invest in US stocks<\/h4><p>Canadian Depositary Receipts (CDRs) represent shares in companies from around the world and are traded in Canadian dollars on the NEO Exchange. Buying CDRs allows you to bypass the risk of exchange rate fluctuations while owning fractional shares in international companies.<\/p><p>There are CDRs for major US companies like Amazon, Apple, Netflix, and more. CDRs are offered by CIBC and can be traded just like stocks through online brokers. There are no ongoing management fees, and each CDR typically costs just $20.<\/p><p>If the companies you invest in pay dividends, you\u2019ll receive payouts, but these won\u2019t qualify for the dividend tax credit.<\/p><h3>Which platforms let you invest in US stocks from Canada?<\/h3><p>There are a growing number of Canadian online share trading platforms that offer access to international stock exchanges. Here are some of the platforms that support US stocks in Canada:<\/p><div class=\"u-grid\"><div class=\"u-grid__col u-1\/3@s\"><ul class=\"list-1\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/questrade-review\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Questrade<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/interactive-brokers-share-trading\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Interactive Brokers<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/wealthsimple-review\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wealthsimple<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"u-grid__col u-1\/3@s\"><ul class=\"list-1\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/scotia-itrade-review\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Scotia iTRADE<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/qtrade-direct-investing-review\" rel=\"noopener\">Qtrade Direct Investing<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/cibc-investors-edge-review\">CIBC Investor\u2019s Edge<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"u-grid__col u-1\/3@s\"><ul class=\"list-1\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/td-easytrade-review\">TD Easy Trade<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/rbc-direct-investing-review\">RBC Direct Investing<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/national-bank-direct-brokerage-review\">National Bank Direct Brokerage<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><h3>US stock market hours: When can I trade?<\/h3><p>Regular trading hours for major US stock exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Nasdaq are Monday to Friday from 9:30am to 4pm (Eastern time).<\/p><p>If you aren\u2019t available to trade during these times, you have two options. Some brokers let you place <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/market-order-or-limit-order\">limit orders<\/a> on US stocks, which means your trades will be automatically executed when specific stocks hit the purchase price you specify.<\/p><p>Some brokers also support <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/stock-trading\/after-hours-trading\">after-hours trading<\/a>, so you can place trades before and after US stock markets hours. When the market opens, your orders are executed.<\/p><h3>How to hold US stocks in TFSA<\/h3><p>Can you buy US stocks in a TFSA? Yes.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/savings-accounts\/tfsa\">A tax-free savings account<\/a> allows you to invest up to $7,000 per year and not pay tax on your capital gains or dividends. Permitted TFSA investments not only include cash, bonds, mutual funds, and stocks and ETFs that are listed on a designated stock exchange.<\/p><p>This means you can use your TFSA to invest in US stocks and ETFs listed on exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq. This makes a TFSA well worth considering when deciding how to buy US stocks in Canada.<\/p><p>Depending on your TFSA provider, you may be able to hold US-dollar and Canadian dollar investments in the one account, or you may need a separate TFSA for USD investments.<\/p><p>However, take note that buying US stocks in a TFSA won\u2019t mean that your investment income is completely tax-free. Any dividends earned on US stocks held in a TFSA are subject to a 15% withholding tax.<\/p><div style=\"padding: 8px; padding-bottom: 0px; border-radius: 10px;\"><article class=\"luna-card luna-card--shadow\" style=\"margin: 0 auto;\"><div class=\"luna-card__block\" style=\"margin: 10px;\"><div class=\"u-grid\"><div class=\"u-grid__col u-1\/5@s u-1\/2\" style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2789569 aligncenter\" style=\"border-radius: 50% 0% 50% 50%;\" title=\"Image: S&amp;P\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/06\/UnitedStatesUSflag_GettyImages_250x250.jpg\" alt=\"How to invest in the S&amp;P500 in Canada\" width=\"130\" height=\"130\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/06\/UnitedStatesUSflag_GettyImages_250x250.jpg?fit=180 180w, https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/06\/UnitedStatesUSflag_GettyImages_250x250.jpg?fit=360 360w, https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/06\/UnitedStatesUSflag_GettyImages_250x250.jpg?fit=390 390w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 390px) 50vw, 390px\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/div><div class=\"u-grid__col u-4\/5@s u-1\/1\" style=\"margin: auto 0;\"><p style=\"margin-left: 20px; font-size: 22px;\"><strong>US stock market update<\/strong><\/p><ul><li style=\"padding-bottom: 10pt;\"><strong>May 8, 2026<\/strong>: The technology and communications sectors have grown over the past three months, but the financial sector has gone down.<\/li><li style=\"padding-bottom: 10pt;\"><strong>May 5, 2026<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketscreener.com\/news\/s-p-500-and-nasdaq-notch-records-as-ai-chip-stocks-surge-ce7f58ddd981f321\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The S&amp;P 500 closed at just over $7,259 USD<\/a>, recording a new all-time high amidst a US-Iran ceasefire and recently announced corporate earnings that have boosted tech stocks.<\/li><li style=\"padding-bottom: 10pt;\"><strong>March 25, 2026<\/strong>: Over the last three months, the energy, utilities, industrials and materials sectors have grown, but the financials and technology sectors have dipped.<\/li><li style=\"padding-bottom: 10pt;\"><strong>March 6, 2026<\/strong>: Rising oil prices and a concerning February US jobs report <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/live\/stock-market-today-dow-sp-500-nasdaq-drop-to-end-volatile-week-as-oil-surges-above-90-210059886.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sent the S&amp;P 500 down<\/a> 1.3%.

The best US stocks for you to invest in will depend on the rest of your portfolio, your risk tolerance and your investing strategy. One thing to keep in mind with US stocks (or any stock for that matter) is that what\u2019s performed well in the past rarely keep on winning forever. For example, the top US stocks from 30 years ago look very different to the top stocks today. So, what will the top US stocks look like in 30 years time? It\u2019s impossible to predict. <\/p><p>One way to combat this uncertainty is by investing in an index fund or ETF that tracks the whole US stock market, or just a big portion of it like the S&amp;P 500 does. Using a tracker fund rather than picking individual stocks means that you don\u2019t have to worry about choosing the winners of tomorrow, you can automatically invest in them with a diversified
