8 Red Flags When Analyzing a Stock

Canadian CPI surprised slightly to the downside, but food inflation is still biting, with big moves in staples like beef and coffee. We also break down the shakeup at Lululemon as the CEO steps down, and why investors appear to be welcoming change. On the Canadian side, we dig into Group Dynamite’s eye-popping results and what’s behind the momentum. Finally, we tackle the name that’s been weighing on markets. We wrap with WSP’s latest acquisition and why grid modernization could be one of the more compelling “picks and shovels” angles to the broader AI buildout.

Tickers of Stocks Discussed: LULU, ORCL, WSP.TO, GRGD.TO

Why Oracle Is Spooking Markets and a Red-Hot 2024 Canadian IPO

In this episode of the Canadian Investor Podcast, we discuss a viral tweet about paying off a low-rate mortgage sparked a familiar debate — invest or kill the mortgage? For Canadians, the answer isn’t nearly as simple. With higher renewal rates, stretched market valuations, and taxes in the mix, the math has quietly shifted.

We break down when investing still makes sense, when paying down a mortgage becomes a compelling risk-free return, and why today’s market environment looks very different from the last decade.

We also dig into where value can still exist in an expensive market — including a deep dive into a Canadian apartment REIT that’s been hit hard despite strong fundamentals. Is this a classic “blood in the streets” setup, or a value trap?

Pay Down Your Mortgage or Invest? And a Canadian Stock Few Are Watching

In this episode of the Canadian Investor Podcast, EQ Bank announced a major acquisition on the same day as earnings — buying PC Financial and locking in an exclusive partnership with PC Optimum. We break down what the deal really means, why Loblaw becoming a major shareholder matters, and how this positions EQ Bank against Canada’s much larger incumbents.

We also dig into earnings from TD and Royal Bank, where strong capital markets are masking softer lending conditions — and why 2026 could look very different for Canadian banks. Are we nearing a reset year?

Finally, we cover BRP’s latest results and what looks like a classic cyclical recovery: improving margins, inventory normalization, rising market share, and upgraded guidance — even as the broader consumer picture remains uneven.

Tickers of stocks discussed: EQB.TO, TD.TO, RY.TO, DOO.TO
