From $415 Million to Zero: The Shocking Collapse of Canadian Trader Christopher DeVocht

From Millionaire to Broke: The Rise and Fall of Christopher DeVocht

Initial Investment: Christopher DeVocht, a former Canadian carpenter, invested $88,000 in the stock market after health issues forced him to leave his trade.

Rapid Wealth Growth: By the age of 30, DeVocht's wealth soared to $26 million, largely due to investments in Tesla shares and options.

Peak Portfolio Value: In late 2021, as Tesla's stock price surged, DeVocht’s portfolio hit a peak value of $415 million.

Introduction to Margin Trading: Recognizing his growing wealth, RBC Dominion Securities assigned financial advisers to DeVocht, who introduced him to a margin account, allowing him to borrow money to increase his market exposure.

Lifestyle and Charity: During this period of financial success, DeVocht lived a life of luxury and made a $17 million donation to charity.

Market Downturn in 2022: As Tesla's value dropped and the overall stock market crashed, DeVocht’s wealth began to evaporate.

Risky Trading and Mounting Losses: To cover his losses, DeVocht engaged in increasingly risky trades and was forced to sell Tesla shares to pay off loans tied to his margin account.

Financial Collapse: By October 2023, DeVocht had lost everything, filing a lawsuit against RBC Dominion Securities on October 1. He claims the firm failed to provide proper financial advice and exposed him to excessive risks with the margin account, leading to his financial ruin.

Takeaway: DeVocht’s story is a powerful reminder of how quickly fortunes can change in the volatile stock market. His rise and fall illustrate the dangers of risky trading and overexposure through margin accounts.

YTD returns of US ETFs.

- AI stocks are rationalizing its valuation
- value stocks trump growth stocks
- globally diversified funds, as always, are a good deal and this time is flat
- US is underperforming the world

The stats are beginning to show, it's just semicon that's outperforming.

sk hynix to the moon. who here buy kopsi index etf?

I have EWY. But only a few thousand dollars. It has more than 2X only recently. Also most emerging market fund/ETF would have high weightage of TSMC, Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix eg. Amundi Emerging Markets fund, which would have benefitted tremendously as well.

Thanks for the chart; much appreciated.

There're 2 funds that I've that have major EM components.

I've 20,000 shares of iShares Asia ex Japan ETF (9010.HK). It has exceeded the Phillip APAC Dividend REIT ETF (BYI.SI) that I've replaced by 146k SGD. Lucky me, I'm pretty grateful for the blessing! LOL!

I've a small position in Amundi EM Unit Trust (~104 units) in my CPFIS. There's a small profit of 3k SGD. I'm currently DCA-ing into this fund using my CPF OA.

I prefer EM and am pretty wary of World Index funds cos of the high valuation caused by US big tech. 20 years ago, EM is highly volatile. However, the difference in volatility between World index and EM has not been great for over past 10 years.

I have been RSP-ing 3010.HK ETF which is MSCI Asia ex Japan ETF in FSMOne.
Top 3 holdings of the ETF:
(1) TSMC
(2) Samsung
(3) SK Hynix

May 2026 performance. Glad that my portfolio recovered somewhat, but S&P500 seems unstoppable....

While majority of rest of the world is focusing on US memory counters MU and SNDK, pple who have been DCA-ing into emerging markets funds / ETFs are quietly riding the memory wave as well. For chips there's TSMC in there as well while the rest is focused on Nvidia/AMD/Intel etc.

 

[Euqorab]

i am glad my US portfolio hit 6.88% YTD after having went down to -20% for a long time this year

there were many missed opportunities including on SGX front but i will control my spending and chanel more funds into both portfolios

TSMC weightage quite high

TSMC forward PE is not crazily high, it is still reasonable IMO. There is no reason to be worried about having more of this company. AMD is now the lead customer for their most advanced tech node so TSMC doesn't have to rely on Apple for their most advanced tech node, they have more leverage on their customers so this is a company in a very good position. I am going to take some profits from AMD to put back into TSMC.
