• 5 Canadian Stocks to Buy and Forget + Are CPP’s Returns Actually Bad? 01.06.2026 56min

  In this episode, we break down the latest CPP Investments annual report and why comparing CPP’s returns directly to the S&P 500 or TSX misses the mark. We discuss CPP’s 7.8% fiscal-year return, its heavy exposure to private equity, real assets and credit, and whether the high fees and complexity are justified over the long run. We also look at five Canadian stocks that could fit a “buy it, lock it away, and don’t touch it for 10 years” mindset. From railways and waste collection to royalty companies, grocers, and energy producers, we discuss which businesses may have the durability, moats, and cash flow profiles to survive and compound through different market environments.

They also discuss how AI could reshape the job market, why companies may eventually need to “right-size” their AI usage, and whether cheaper models could become a major theme in the years ahead. The conversation then shifts to Canada’s economic challenges, including weak GDP growth, poor consumer sentiment, declining incentives for entrepreneurs, and why Canada risks losing more talent and high-growth companies to the U.S. Tickers of stocks discussed: NVDA, TSM, MU, MSFT, META, GOOGL, AMZN, ORCL, PWR, RBNK, SHOP   Watch the full video on Our New Youtube Channel!

  In this episode, we break down a wide range of market stories, starting with SpaceX’s potential IPO and what its S-1 reveals about the business. We look at the company’s major segments, including Starlink, launch services, and xAI, while discussing the massive valuation being floated and why investors may want to be cautious around the hype. We also cover Nvidia’s latest blockbuster earnings, the continued strength in AI infrastructure demand, and why the stock’s muted reaction says a lot about how much growth is already priced in. From there, we turn to Walmart, Lowe’s, and Home Depot to see what they are saying about the consumer, higher fuel costs, and the pressure still hitting DIY and housing-related spending. Finally, we discuss the start of Canadian bank earnings season with Scotiabank, including its improving return on equity, lower provisions, and why Canadian banks continue to show resilience despite concerns around the broader economy.

• Are Software Stocks Broken? Plus 3 Stocks on Our Radar 25.05.2026 48min

  In this episode, Simon and Dan break down why software stocks continue to struggle despite many companies showing little evidence of major AI disruption so far. They discuss the ongoing valuation reset across SaaS, the shift away from seat-based pricing, and why companies like Salesforce, ServiceNow, Adobe, Constellation Software, and Topicus may need more than solid earnings to regain investor confidence. They then turn to Bitcoin, looking at why it remains well below its roughly US$125,000 peak. Simon covers the role of ETF outflows, leverage, post-election crypto optimism fading, quantum computing fears, profit-taking, and higher bond yields as potential headwinds. To wrap up, they highlight stocks on their radar, including Visa and Mastercard as high-quality payment networks facing stablecoin disruption risk, and Waste Connections as a real-economy compounder trading at a more attractive valuation while the market remains focused on AI-related names.

• Bond Yields, Inflation Pressures and the Consumer Squeeze 23.05.2026 49min

  In this episode, Simon and Daniel break down the sudden surge in bond yields and what it could be signaling about inflation, interest rates, and consumer stress. They start by looking at the latest Canadian CPI data and why inflation may not be fully reflecting the impact of higher fuel prices yet. Simon highlights key takeaways from Walmart, Lowe’s, and Home Depot earnings, including rising transportation costs, weaker DIY demand, and signs that lower-income consumers are becoming increasingly stretched. The discussion then shifts to the bond market, including the sharp rise in U.S. 2-year, 10-year, and 30-year yields, changing Fed rate expectations, and why markets may be pricing in more persistent inflation risk. Simon and Daniel also touch on Japanese government bond yields, the yen carry trade, and why a disorderly unwind could matter for global markets. They wrap up by connecting higher bond yields to the Canadian housing market, mortgage renewals, variable-rate risk, and the growing financial pressure facing homeowners as higher mortgage payments collide with rising food and fuel costs.

• Constellation Software, a Hidden Canadian AI Stock, and a Nuclear Energy Play 21.05.2026 42min

  In this episode, Simon and Dan cover a wide mix of macro updates, Canadian corporate earnings, and AI-related investment themes. They start by discussing the latest Canadian inflation data, where headline CPI surprisingly slowed despite a volatile energy environment. The hosts also weigh the broader macroeconomic impact of surging bond yields—highlighting the climb in both U.S. and Canadian yields—and explain how these moves directly pressure household disposable income via upcoming fixed-rate mortgage renewals. The conversation then shifts to corporate earnings, starting with Constellation Software's strong quarter, record M&A spending, and whether AI poses a structural threat to the software sector. They also touch on Atkins Réalis (formerly SNC-Lavalin), reviewing its massive nuclear opportunities, unique Candu technology moat, and a new partnership with Nvidia to develop nuclear-powered AI factories. They wrap up by analyzing Canadian Tire's sluggish retail top-line growth, exploring a large sequential decline in Sport Chek store locations and elevated credit card delinquencies that signal a stretched consumer. Finally, the hosts highlight key industrial earnings from Applied Materials and Finning International, which are both capitalizing on the massive infrastructure and data center build-outs fueling the global AI boom.

• Two Surprising Canadian Stocks and What Canada’s New Fund Could Buy 18.05.2026 52min

  In this episode, Simon and Dan answer listener questions covering Canada’s new sovereign wealth fund, speculative space ETFs, real economy stocks, and how younger investors can get started. They start by discussing where the new Canada Strong Fund could potentially invest, including critical minerals, uranium, energy infrastructure, pipelines, and companies tied to national sovereignty. They also look at why a West-to-East pipeline could become a much bigger political and economic issue as Canada thinks more seriously about energy security. The conversation then shifts to the new Canadian-listed space ETF, the risks of niche thematic funds, and why space investing remains a high-risk, high-reward area. Simon and Dan also compare the recent strength in technology and semiconductor stocks with more traditional “real economy” companies like railways, waste collection, infrastructure, and industrial businesses. They wrap up by discussing some of the most surprising Canadian stock performers of 2026, including Aritzia and Bombardier, before answering a listener question on how young Canadians can start investing using accounts like the FHSA and TFSA, as well as broad-based ETF options.

• Alberta’s New Pipeline Deal, Inflation Returns & Chip Stocks Go Parabolic 16.05.2026 57min

  In this episode, Simon and Daniel break down the growing macro risks facing Canada and the U.S., starting with the recent oil shock and what it could mean for inflation, consumer spending, and central bank policy. They discuss why Canada’s energy infrastructure is back in focus, including potential federal support for a new Alberta-to-West Coast pipeline, the bigger debate around a West-to-East pipeline, and why energy security could become a much larger political and economic issue. They also look at the latest U.S. CPI and PPI data, the relationship between producer prices and future inflation, and how central banks may respond if higher energy prices start flowing through the economy. The conversation then shifts to the sharp rally in semiconductor stocks, massive AI-related capex from the mega-cap tech companies, and whether markets are starting to show signs of excess. The episode wraps up with a discussion on privatizing Canadian infrastructure assets like airports and ports, rising U.S. Treasury yields, Canadian consumer debt, and why the current economy feels increasingly K-shaped.

We also revisit GameStop’s rejected proposal for eBay and break down why Ryan Cohen’s compensation structure may help explain the push for a bold acquisition. We then look at a strong quarter from TMX Group, including the rebound in Canadian capital markets activity and its planned acquisitions of Cboe Canada and Cboe Australia.

• Berkshire’s $400B Cash Pile + How to Buy Private AI Companies 11.05.2026 55min

  In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan break down Greg Abel’s first Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting as CEO and what it says about the future of the company after Warren Buffett. They discuss Berkshire’s nearly $400 billion cash pile, whether it is a sign of excessive caution or disciplined capital allocation, and why patience can look like a mistake when markets keep moving higher. They also look at Berkshire’s insurance business, BNSF Railway, energy exposure, AI-related power demand, stock buybacks, and why the conglomerate structure still matters. In the second half of the episode, Simon and Dan shift to private markets and the growing interest in companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe, Perplexity, and other pre-IPO businesses. They explain how platforms like EquityZen and Forge Global work, the risks of buying private company shares, and why access alone does not necessarily mean a good investment opportunity. They also discuss accredited investor rules in Canada and the U.S., whether those rules actually protect investors, and why wealth is a poor substitute for financial sophistication.

• GameStop’s Wild eBay Bid, Shopify’s AI Question, and Google’s Monster Quarter 07.05.2026 43min

We then turn to Canadian markets with updates on Suncor, Canadian Pacific Kansas City, and Toromont.

• 10 Costly Mistakes Canadian Investors Make 04.05.2026 59min

  In this episode, Simon and Dan break down 10 common mistakes Canadian investors make, from treating the TFSA like a basic savings account to overconcentrating in Canadian stocks and real estate. They discuss why home-country bias can quietly increase portfolio risk, when CDRs and Canadian-listed U.S. ETFs may or may not make sense, and how withholding taxes, currency conversion, and account type can affect returns. They also dig into the psychology of chasing yield, the danger of focusing too much on dividends instead of total returns, and why high-fee funds should be judged on performance net of fees rather than fees alone. The episode wraps with a look at analyst price targets, investor pitch decks, and why relying too heavily on management presentations can lead investors to miss major red flags.

  In this episode, Simon Belanger joins Daniel Foch for a live macro discussion covering some of the biggest stories in Canada and the U.S. They start with Real Brokerage’s proposed acquisition of RE/MAX, breaking down the deal structure, why RE/MAX shares are trading below the headline offer price, and what the market may be signalling about dilution and the real estate industry. They also discuss Canada’s new Canada Strong Fund, whether it really qualifies as a sovereign wealth fund, and the risks of governments trying to balance commercial returns with politically strategic investments. The conversation touches on government-backed investments in strategic industries, comparisons with U.S. policy under Trump, and the challenge of measuring success when national interest and market returns may eventually conflict. The episode wraps up with a look at the latest Bank of Canada and Federal Reserve decisions, the risk of sticky inflation from higher energy prices, the possibility of stagflation, and why both central banks may be stuck in wait-and-see mode until the data gives them a clearer path forward.

• Do Canadians Really Need $1.7 Million to Retire? + The Gamification of Investing 20.04.2026 46min

  In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, we break down the latest data on Canadian household wealth and what it reveals about the growing divide between those benefiting from rising asset prices and those falling behind.

We unpack why these figures can be misleading, how retirement needs vary dramatically across provinces, and the key factors that actually determine how much you’ll need to stop working. Finally, we discuss Wealthsimple’s new partnership with X (formerly Twitter), allowing users to trade stocks directly through the platform.

• What the Oil Shock Means for Stocks, Gold & Rates with Bipan Rai 15.04.2026 31min

  In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, we welcome back Bipan Rai from BMO ETFs to break down one of the biggest macro stories of the year: the oil shock triggered by the Iran conflict and what it could mean for inflation, central banks, and investors. We discuss why this environment may look very different from 2022, whether the Bank of Canada and Federal Reserve are likely to stay on hold, and why markets may be underestimating downside risks to economic growth. We also cover why gold has struggled despite geopolitical turmoil, rising bond yields, and the surge in the US dollar. Finally, we dive into private credit stress, whether contagion risks are overblown, and where Bipin sees opportunities today—including commodities, diversification, and equal-weight strategies.   Subscribe to our Our New Youtube Channel!
