The trade war between Canada and the U.S. is evolving fast, and its impact on investors is undeniable. In this episode, we break down the latest developments, including the U.S. granting automakers a temporary exemption and potential carve-outs for agricultural products. Simon shares his critical take on the Canadian government’s counter-tariffs and why they could hit the most vulnerable Canadians hardest.

We also discuss the broader market implications—how uncertainty leads to hesitation in home purchases, business investments, and overall economic activity. But where there’s uncertainty, there’s opportunity. We look at TFII and BRP, two beaten-down stocks that might be worth watching, and highlight five Canadian stocks that should see little impact from tariffs on their businesses.

Finally, we shift gears to the state of retail investing, looking at how the rise of DIY investors post-2020 has shaped risk-taking behavior. Are retail investors making smarter moves, or are we heading toward more speculation with the rise of event contracts and private equity products?
