Now more than ever, during these uncertain times in the markets, it’s not always easy for young Canadians to have enough to save and put aside. But research shows that young people do have important financial goals, like buying their first home, planning for retirement, and travelling. So what is holding them back from achieving these goals?  And how can we help young people build strong financial habits early on in their investment journey? On this episode, we turn to personal finance columnist, Rob Carrick, who joins the show to share investing lessons from his storied career. Rob spent 27 years as a columnist for the Globe and Mail before retiring earlier this year.  He’s seen the markets through many ups and downs and has helped many Canadians along the way. We find out what his top investing lessons are from nearly three decades of reporting—and why he believes at this moment in time “financial advice could be the best it’s ever been.”

North American equity markets are off to a strong start this week. As Congress begins steps to avoid a government shutdown, investors are also encouraged by a surprisingly strong earnings season. And the momentum looks good overseas too, with non-U.S. markets showing accelerating earnings estimates and strong performance. But the big question now is whether markets have overestimated AI’s ability to drive long-term growth and help the U.S. manage its rising debt. So what does this mean for investors? And how might it shape the path ahead? Joining today's episode to unpack the latest macro movers impacting the markets is Fidelity Director of Global Macro, Jurrien Timmer.

Concerns about an A.I. bubble are dominating media coverage across platforms. And the big debate? Whether we’re actually in one. Today's guest argues that the “A.I. bubble” narrative simply doesn’t match the data. So what are today’s underlying financial conditions showing us - especially compared to the dot-com era? And why is that distinction the key to her thesis? Joining this episode to walk us through the data and what it means for investors today is Fidelity Director of Quantitative Market Strategy, Denise Chisholm.

Over that time, markets have thrown just about everything at investors: A global pandemic, and with it, its extreme volatility of 2020, the speculative surge of 2021, the rate-driven reset of 2022, political change here at home and in the U.S., and a fresh wave of momentum powered by A.I. enthusiasm. So let’s rewind a bit, and look at how the fund has navigated those very different market environments. What has today's guest has learned along the way? And how has it helped frame his strategy to position for tomorrow? Joining this episode to unpack all this and more is Fidelity Long/Short Alternative Fund portfolio manager, David Way.
