Life after pro sports, DeFi, NFTs and Bitcoin with Courtney Stephen

Lululemon was once one of the strongest brands in retail. Now comparable sales are falling, guidance has been cut repeatedly, and investors are asking whether the company can regain its footing—or whether its best days are behind it.

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan dig into why fashion companies can be some of the most difficult businesses to own for the long term. Consumer tastes can change quickly, switching costs are virtually nonexistent, aggressive expansion can backfire, and excessive discounting can train customers to stop paying full price.

They look back at Express, Quiksilver and Aeropostale, three once-popular brands whose public shareholders were eventually wiped out, and contrast them with some remarkable comeback stories. Abercrombie & Fitch reinvented its brand, Victoria’s Secret changed course, and Crocs nearly went under before doubling down on the product that made it famous.

Finally, Simon and Dan discuss what these examples could teach investors about Lululemon, whether its turnaround could take years, and why waiting for evidence of a recovery may make more sense than trying to perfectly time the bottom.

Stocks discussed: LULU, ATZ.TO, GOOS, GRGD.TO, GAP, NKE, ANF, VSXY, CROX, ADS.DE.

Why Investing Fashion Stocks Is So Hard: 3 Failures & 3 Comebacks

Bond yields are surging in Canada and the United States, and the implications are starting to ripple across the economy.

In this episode of the Canadian Macro Show, Simon and Dan break down why the bond market appears to be pushing back against attempts to contain long-term yields, what rising government spending and persistent inflation could mean for interest rates, and why higher borrowing costs could become a major problem for housing, AI investment and economic growth.

They also dig into the escalating Canada-US trade war and why Trump may be increasingly motivated to secure a deal with Canada ahead of the midterms. Plus, they discuss Canada's weakening labour market, the growing popularity of variable and shorter-term mortgages, the pressures facing Canadian consumers, and whether government-funded investment is masking underlying weakness in the private-sector economy.

Finally, they look at how geopolitics, elevated oil prices, tariffs and fiscal policy are becoming increasingly interconnected with inflation, bond yields and investment markets—and why ignoring macroeconomic developments may be getting much harder for investors.

Bond Yields Are Rising Fast — What It Means for Canada, the US and Homeowners

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan break down a rough quarter for Lululemon as falling comparable sales, heavier markdowns and weakening international growth raise serious questions about whether the brand can turn things around.

They also look at BRP’s latest results and how tariffs are creating major uncertainty for an otherwise well-run business, before digging into the latest Canada–U.S. trade tensions surrounding Bombardier and Canadian banks.

Then, they turn to Couche-Tard, where fuel profits remain strong but merchandise growth continues to struggle as consumers increasingly trade down and look for value. Finally, they check in on GameStop’s ongoing pivot toward collectibles and whether the company is quietly building a more sustainable business despite continued declines in its traditional operations.

Tickers of stocks discussed:
Lululemon (LULU)
BRP (DOO.TO)
Bombardier (BBD.B.TO)
Alimentation Couche-Tard (ATD.TO)
GameStop (GME)
