What separates a good acquisition from a truly company-defining one? In this episode, Simon and Dan look at some of the best acquisitions in Canadian and U.S. market history — the deals that changed business models, unlocked decades of growth, created massive shareholder value, or quietly reshaped entire industries. From convenience stores and railways to software, social media, insurance, and e-commerce infrastructure, they break down why some acquisitions become legendary while others fade into the background.

Tickers of Stocks Discussed:
ATD.TO, SJ.TO, CNR.TO, TRI.TO, AAPL, GOOGL, META, MSFT, BRK.B, DIS, AMZN, NVDA, AMD

In this episode, Simon and Dan Foch break down the latest Micron earnings and what they reveal about the massive demand for AI infrastructure. We look at why higher DRAM and NAND prices matter beyond semiconductor stocks, how rising memory costs could flow through to consumer products like iPhones, laptops, gaming consoles and data centers, and whether Apple price hikes are an early sign of broader tech inflation.

We also discuss the latest inflation pressures, including the impact of higher oil prices, and what these could mean for central banks and consumers. Plus, we dig into the BC and Government of Canada condo bailout, what it says about the state of the housing market, and whether policymakers are once again stepping in to soften the landing for real estate.

In this episode, Simon and Dan break down Canada’s latest inflation print, with CPI hitting 3.2% in May as gasoline, airfare, and food prices continue to pressure consumers. They also cover earnings from Empire, Air Transat, Couche-Tard, and Stingray, including the competitive pressure in grocery, Air Transat’s fuel and Cuba-related headwinds, Couche-Tard’s rally after a stronger quarter, and Stingray’s surprising growth following its TuneIn acquisition. They finish with a quick look at OSFI lowering the domestic stability buffer for Canadian banks and what it could mean for lending, buybacks, dividends, and the broader economy.

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan break down the latest short report targeting Gildan Activewear and the major allegations around channel stuffing, receivables factoring, and whether the company’s recent growth may be less durable than it appears.

They also look back at some of the most notable short reports in Canadian market history, including Shopify, Dollarama, Canadian Tire, Home Capital Group, Exchange Income Corp, FaceDrive, goeasy, and others. Some short sellers were completely wrong, some were early, and a few ended up being surprisingly accurate.

To wrap things up, Simon shares a stock on his radar: Intuitive Surgical. He explains why the company’s robotic surgery platform, recurring revenue model, large installed base, and potential AI advantage make it an interesting name to watch after a pullback.

Tickers discussed: GIL.TO, SHOP.TO, DOL.TO, CTC.A.TO, EIF.TO, GSY.TO, ISRG, FFH.TO, BIP.UN.TO, LSPD.TO

This week on Canadian Macro Investor, Simon and Dan break down a packed macro backdrop: global central banks turning more hawkish, Kevin Warsh’s push to rethink how the Fed communicates and uses data, and why markets may be too relaxed about inflation risks.

They also discuss the Canadian dollar, oil prices, the fragile Iran memorandum of understanding, and whether geopolitical risk is being ignored because investors are so focused on the AI trade. From there, they dig into OSFI lowering the Domestic Stability Buffer for Canadian banks, what it could mean for credit creation, and whether Ottawa is quietly trying to stimulate the economy through the banking system.

The episode wraps with Canada’s population decline, falling rents, purpose-built rental supply, and why the housing market could remain under pressure even if construction slows.

Topics discussed: central banks, Fed policy, Bank of Canada, Canadian dollar, oil prices, Iran, AI stocks, OSFI, Canadian banks, housing, rents, population growth.

On today’s episode, we cover a packed week across private markets, U.S. dealmaking, and Canadian earnings.

We start with SpaceX and the growing anticipation around a potential IPO. We break down why the valuation, limited public float, and upcoming share unlocks could make this one of the most closely watched public listings whenever it eventually happens.

We also look at a busy start to the week for acquisitions, including Fox’s investment in Roku, Salesforce’s latest deal, and American Express making a move of its own.

Then we turn to earnings, with Dollarama posting a strong rebound quarter, Groupe Dynamite selling off sharply despite impressive growth numbers, and Adobe delivering solid results on the surface while investors focused on what may be ahead.

Plus, a quick preview of Monday’s episode, where we’ll be diving deeper into the recent short report on Gildan.

AI investing is often focused on the obvious names: Nvidia, Microsoft, Google, Meta, and the rest of the hyperscalers. But the AI buildout is creating massive demand across the entire infrastructure stack, from electricity and grid upgrades to cooling, data centers, semiconductors, uranium, industrial automation, and specialized software.

In this episode, we unveil the TCI Podcast Index: Hidden AI Winners, built in partnership with Questrade’s new custom indexing feature. We explain how custom indexing works, why we chose this AI infrastructure theme, and then break down the 21 companies selected for the index.

This episode also looks at why AI demand may benefit companies far beyond the usual tech giants, especially businesses tied to power generation, electrical equipment, liquid cooling, semiconductor manufacturing, data center construction, and nuclear energy.

Tickers of stocks discussed: PWR, GEV, STN, TT, NET, VRT, NEE, GLW, FIX, CCO.TO / CCJ, ASML, ROK, ECL, CLS.TO / CLS, HUBB, QXO, SNPS, GNRC, ETN, CEG

In this episode, we break down a packed week of macro, market and stock-specific news. We start with the Bank of Canada holding rates at 2.25% as inflation pressures remain sticky, then look at the latest U.S. CPI print and why markets are still worried about inflation staying higher for longer.

We also discuss the insider tipping allegations surrounding TerraVest and why governance risk can matter, even when the underlying business remains strong. From there, we move to the IPO market, including OpenAI reportedly filing confidentially for an IPO, the latest on SpaceX’s expected public listing, and Wealthsimple’s new IPO access feature for retail investors.

Finally, we look at Lululemon’s tough quarter, weak Americas sales, margin pressure, lowered guidance, and whether the company is starting to look more like a turnaround story than a premium compounder.

Tickers of stocks discussed:
TIH.TO, LULU, ATZ.TO, META, GOOGL, AMZN, MSFT, NVDA, SPY, QQQ
