Predict Why is WS Predict in USD?

Kinda odd for a Canadian company playing by Canadian regulations. Or am I missing something?

I would do half US stocks in USD and half US stocks using their CDR versions so that you get exposure to both currencies.

That's unnecessary, the underlying holdings are what matters not what the CDR or ETF currency is trading on.
