Saving For A Down Payment In An Expensive Real Estate Market - Part 2

In this episode of the Canadian Investor Podcast we explore EY’s resignation as the Super Micro’s auditor. Why explain why this raises major concerns, especially when combined with a DOJ investigation and Hindenburg’s short report alleging accounting irregularities. Simon gives a breakdown of Super Micro’s impressive AI-fueled stock performance, followed by a stark analysis of the serious red flags that emerged. We’ll discuss why this situation should make investors very cautious and the broader implications of such red flags.

Next, Braden taps into his chemical engineering background to demystify nuclear power and explain why the technology is key for human kind’s ever growing energy needs. With tech giants like Amazon, Microsoft, and Google betting on nuclear to meet massive AI-driven energy demands, we break down how nuclear reactors work, Canada’s leading role in nuclear innovation, and the emerging potential of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). Are SMRs the future of clean energy, or are they still too costly and slow to deploy?
