Canadian stocks are hitting record highs, so where should investors look next? On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, veteran money manager Lyle Stein of Forvest Canada breaks down why he’s leaning into resource stocks and dividend payers as the backbone of a portfolio.

From gold miners to pipelines to natural gas plays, Stein explains his “comfort, calamity and children” strategy for portfolio construction as a way to balance income, protection, and long-term growth. He shares why he’s cautious on Canadian banks, where he still sees opportunities in commodities like copper, uranium, and silver, and why dividend-paying stocks remain the vitamins every investor needs.

In the mailbag, we tackle viewer questions on some of Canada’s biggest dividend and resource names. Stein shares his thoughts on insurers like Manulife (MFC.TO), pipelines including Pembina (PPL.TO), as well as REITs such as Primaris (PMZ.UN.TO). Lyle highlights large-cap gold leaders like Agnico Eagle (AEM), streamers such as Franco Nevada (FNV) and Wheaton (WPM), and why silver producers like First Majestic (AG) could be the next breakout. He also digs into Cameco (CCO) and its Westinghouse deal as a long-term nuclear power play, while eyeing Teck Resources (TECK) as a copper-driven transition winner.

In Pro Picks, Stein reveals his highest-conviction dividend and resource stocks right now: Peyto Exploration (PEY.TO) for natural gas exposure, Sprott Inc. (SII.TO) as a leveraged play on gold, silver, and uranium, and First Majestic Silver (FR.TO) as a way to capture the silver rally.
