Should you Invest in Stocks or Real Estate ? Part 1

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.

What the Oil Shock Means for Stocks, Gold & Rates with Bipan Rai

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan discuss some of the largest IPOs in history and whether 2026 could become a record-breaking year for new listings. They break down Saudi Aramco, Alibaba, Facebook, Uber, and Rivian, before looking ahead to potential mega-IPOs from SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic. They also explore whether investor demand can keep up with these massive valuations.

The discussion then shifts to the Financial Planning Canada Financial Stress Index, highlighting how Canadians are feeling about money, rising living costs, retirement savings, debt, and the growing financial divide between younger and older generations.

Finally, they examine a new TD report that downgraded Canada’s telecom sector. Simon and Dan discuss declining ARPU, increased competition from Freedom Mobile, dividend risks, and whether companies like BCE, Telus, and Rogers can adapt to a changing market.

Tickers of stocks discussed:
 BCE, T, RCI.B, META, UBER, RIVN

EY 2025 IPO Summary

EY Q1 2026 IPO Summary

The Largest IPOs in History and Young Canadians Are Stressed About Money

In this episode, we break down the market’s reaction to the announced ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran and what it means for investors. With oil prices pulling back sharply and equities rallying, we discuss why this remains a highly headline-driven market—and why having a clear portfolio strategy matters more than ever.

We then shift to earnings, starting with a strong turnaround quarter from BRP, where inventory normalization and improved margins are driving a sharp recovery. We also revisit Boyd Group, a long-term compounder facing short-term pressure from insurance trends and used vehicle dynamics.

Finally, we dive into the latest Canadian ETF flows to understand where investors are allocating capital today, including the rise in Canadian equities, the decline in crypto exposure, and the continued growth of more complex ETF products.

Tickers discussed:
 DOO.TO (BRP), BYD.TO (Boyd Group), VFV, XIC
