This week we focus on three crucial ideas that investors need to focus on before they make their #investment decisions. First, with recent #market surges, it’s essential to stick to your investment discipline - knowing when to buy and what represents good value is more important than just following the herd. Next, #Nvidia, the world’s largest company by market cap, reports earnings on November 20, a critical event likely to impact the broader tech sector and the S&P 500. Finally, we break down U.S. economic indicators like CPI, #interestrates and discuss how they could influence both U.S. and Canadian markets. These three elements provide a roadmap for making informed investment decisions in the weeks ahead.

• Market Discipline: Why sticking to your strategy during market highs is crucial
• Nvidia’s Impact: How Nvidia’s earnings could sway tech stocks and broader indexes
• U.S. Economic Data: Understanding CPI, inflation, and interest rates as market drivers
