    Oil Shock: Eric Nuttall Says the Market is Dangerously Complacent

    The oil market just got a historic geopolitical shock — and Eric Nuttall says market complacency is creating a major opportunity in energy stocks. Geopolitics has jolted the oil market — but according to Eric Nuttall, the real story for investors was already unfolding long before the latest headlines. The Partner & Senior Portfolio Manager at Ninepoint Partners, joins In the Money with Amber Kanwar for an emergency session to break down the implications of the Iran crisis, why the market may be dangerously complacent about global oil supply, and why he believes energy stocks remain in a multi-year bull market. Eric explains why the widely anticipated oil “super-glut” never materialized, why U.S. shale production may have plateaued, and why long-dated oil reserves could become increasingly valuable in the years ahead. He also discusses why energy stocks have pulled back despite rising geopolitical risks and why patient investors could still see significant upside in the sector. Before getting to the Mailbag, Amber asks Eric about Strathcona Resources (SCR), a stock he says he bought this week. Eric explains why he’s attracted to the company’s long-life reserves and discounted valuation compared with larger peers like Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ). The purchase comes even after Eric opposed the company’s now failed bid to buy MEG Energy (MEG). He explains why he sees compelling value in Strathcona today and why companies with deep, long-dated reserves could benefit the most if oil prices rise. In the Mailbag, Eric tackles viewer questions starting with Baytex Energy (BTE), explaining why he doesn’t regret selling it and why the company’s recent rally reflects buybacks and a cleaner balance sheet after exiting the Eagle Ford. He then discusses Tamarack Valley Energy (TVE), where strong economics and improving results have driven a major run in the stock. From there he responds to a question on Logan Energy (LGN), warning that going too far down the market-cap spectrum can leave investors stuck in stocks without enough institutional buying power to drive a rerating. He then shares his thesis on Cenovus Energy (CVE) following its acquisition of MEG Energy (MEG), before turning to natural gas with Birchcliff Energy (BIR) and ARC Resources (ARX), where he explains why he’s currently less enthusiastic about Canadian gas. The Mailbag wraps with a blunt take on Surge Energy (SGY). In Pro Picks, Eric first reflects briefly on some of his past ideas on the show — including Veren (VRN), MEG Energy (MEG), and NuVista Energy (NVA) — all of which were ultimately taken out, though he says he would rather see the full investment thesis play out than rely on M&A. Today he shares three current high-conviction ideas: Whitecap Resources (WCP), Athabasca Oil (ATH), and Ovintiv (OVV). He explains why Whitecap remains his largest holding thanks to its long inventory runway and discounted valuation, why Athabasca’s deep reserve base could become increasingly strategic in a tightening oil market, and why Ovintiv’s cleaner asset base and aggressive share buybacks could drive a meaningful re-rating if the company attracts more long-term institutional investors.

    The Great Rotation: Small Caps Up, Software Down — What Now?

    Small-caps are outperforming. Software stocks are getting crushed. Is this the great rotation?  On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Andrey Omelchak, President, CEO & CIO at LionGuard Capital, breaks down one of the biggest shifts happening in markets right now. As AI fears hammer software valuations and once-untouchable names get cut in half, small and mid-cap stocks are quietly catching a bid. Andrey explains why he believes the market has overreacted in parts of software — but also why select small caps, defense plays, and “Build Canada” beneficiaries may offer stronger risk-adjusted returns from here. He shares how he’s thinking about geopolitics, rising oil prices, gold as a safe haven, and why defense spending is becoming one of the most obvious long-term investment themes. At the same time, he argues that today’s short-term market mindset is creating major inefficiencies — particularly in overlooked Canadian small caps. In the mailbag, we tackle the AI disruption debate head-on with a look at major software names including Thomson Reuters (TRI) and Constellation Software (CSU), plus small-cap tech like Docebo (DCBO) and Kneat.com (KSI). Are these sharp drawdowns buying opportunities — or signs of structural change? Andrey also weighs in on engineering and infrastructure firms WSP Global (WSP), AtkinsRéalis (ATRL) and Stantec (STN), battery manufacturer Electrovaya (ELVA), healthcare roll-up WELL Health (WELL), fintech lender Propel Holdings (PRL), and GoEasy (GSY). Which names are unfairly penalized — and which still carry real risk? In Pro Picks, Andrey highlights Calian Group (CGY), a defense and cybersecurity player benefiting from rising NATO and Canadian military spending; Bird Construction (BDT), a direct “Build Canada” infrastructure beneficiary with a rapidly expanding, higher-quality backlog; and Canaccord Genuity Group (CF), where he sees meaningful upside from a capital markets recovery and potential monetization of its UK wealth business. Is this the beginning of a lasting market regime change — from software dominance to small-cap opportunity — or just another bout of AI-driven volatility?

    “I Hate This Market” – Dividend Investor Rebecca Teltscher on What to Buy in an Overvalued Market

    “I hate this market. It’s funny because we are strongly outperforming, but I still don’t like this market.” That’s how dividend investor Rebecca Teltscher, Portfolio Manager at Newhaven Asset Management, sums up today’s market on this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar. Value is working. Dividend stocks are back. Utilities, pipelines and energy have seen major inflows. And yet, Rebecca says this is one of the hardest environments she’s seen to deploy capital, with sectors moving quickly from unloved to fully valued. Before we get to the Mailbag, Rebecca explains why she’s staying patient in TELUS (T.TO) despite dividend concerns and a leadership transition, why long-held positions like Manulife (MFC.TO) have rewarded disciplined dividend investors who reinvested through volatility, and why she believes fixed income currently offers limited real returns relative to dividend-paying equities. With bond yields compressed and volatility creeping into the rate market, she argues dividend stocks have effectively become the new “safe haven” — even if the easy money has already been made. In the Mailbag, we begin with the Canadian banks, including BMO (BMO.TO) and TD (TD.TO). Rebecca admits she was wrong last year not adding more exposure as the banks rallied, but says she now wants more clarity on the Canadian economy and the trajectory of loan-loss provisions before committing new capital. She then discusses consumer lender goeasy (GSY.TO) and why subprime credit risk doesn’t align with her capital-preservation philosophy. From there, she weighs the valuation debate around Dollarama (DOL.TO), breaks down the ongoing challenges in office real estate including Allied Properties (AP.UN), revisits the credibility issues and dividend reset at Northland Power (NPI.TO), analyzes Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) versus Brookfield Corp. (BN), and closes with energy producer Whitecap Resources (WCP.TO) and the sustainability of its dividend in a volatile oil environment. In Pro Picks, Rebecca begins by revisiting her past ideas — including her long-time favourite Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ), along with Premium Brands (PBH.TO) and AltaGas (ALA.TO). On CNQ, she explains why its balance sheet strength, capital discipline and history of never cutting its dividend make it a core long-term holding she plans to own for decades. She then shares where she’s putting money to work now: CAE (CAE.TO) for its long runway in civil aviation and defense training, Algonquin Power & Utilities (AQN.TO) as a utility turnaround with new management credibility, and ARC Resources (ARX.TO) as a natural gas name with embedded growth and optionality. Timestamps00:00: Show trailer  02:30 Intro  04:30 Rebecca was right about value stocks over the past year 06:20 Can investors kick their addiction to tech for more than just a short while?  07:30 Can Rebecca bring herself to look at software? 10:15 Why Rebecca holds on to the telcos like Telus (T) 15:00 Why Rebecca considers herself a retail investor 16:30 Is the value sector becoming expensive?  There’s been a sector rotation  19:00 Dividend stocks have become the new safe bet 20:50 How is Rebecca playing this expensive market? 22:45 ITM Mailbag: Canadian banks (BMO, TD) 28:50 goeasy stock (GSY)32:30 Dollarama stock (DOL)  37:25 Allied Properties REIT & the REIT market (AP.UN)  44:00 Northland Power (NPI) 49:15 Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) 51:20 Whitecap Resources (WCP) 54:30 Rebecca’s Past & Pro Picks (Past: CNQ, PBH, ALA, Pro: CAE, AQN, ARX) Sponsors For over 25 years, Raymond James has been helping Canadians achieve their financial goals.

    The Rise and Fall of ESG — And What Comes Next

    Is sustainable investing still relevant — or was ESG just a pandemic-era trade? On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar we speak with Amber Fairbanks of Impax Asset Management to unpack the ESG backlash, the performance debate, and why she believes sustainable investing isn’t a label — it’s simply long-term investing done right. After years of inflows and hype, ESG has fallen out of favour, but Fairbanks argues the real opportunity may lie in focusing on durable secular trends, corporate culture, and risk management — not marketing buzzwords. From AI disruption to oil & gas exclusions, she explains where sustainability adds value, where it doesn’t, and why time horizon matters more than headlines. In the Mailbag, we tackle some of the most talked-about names in the market: Nvidia (NVDA) ahead of earnings and whether its AI dominance can continue; Salesforce (CRM) amid the SaaS scare; Tyler Technologies (TYL) — a beat-up software name she believes is worth considering given its deep government relationships; Boston Scientific (BSX) after its sharp drop on guidance; Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) in medtech; Novo Nordisk (NVO) following its stunning fall from grace; and Palo Alto Networks (PANW) as cybersecurity faces AI disruption. Which selloffs are an opportunity — and which deserve caution? In Pro Picks, Fairbanks shares three sustainable high-conviction ideas positioned for long-term secular growth. She highlights On Holding (ONON), the premium athletic brand capitalizing on the global wellness trend and expanding brand awareness; Bright Horizons Family Solutions (BFAM), the employer-sponsored childcare provider she believes is misunderstood after conservative guidance but poised to regain consistency; and Autoliv (ALV), the auto safety leader benefiting from rising global safety regulation and increased safety content per vehicle. Each reflects her disciplined focus on durable growth, competitive advantage, and corporate culture — core pillars of her sustainable investing framework. If you’ve been wondering whether ESG still delivers alpha — this conversation is for you.

    The Great Rotation: Why Global Stocks Are Beating the U.S.

    For years, U.S. markets felt unstoppable. Now the script is flipping. On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Matthew Strauss, SVP, Portfolio Manager & Lead – Global Equities at CI Global Asset Management, makes the case for rotating into global and emerging market equities. After years of American dominance, Matthew argues that stretched U.S. valuations, crowded positioning, and a shifting growth differential are finally pushing investors to look abroad. Matthew, who has been investing in emerging markets since the 1990s, breaks down how the asset class has matured — from serial crises to more disciplined fiscal policy, freer-floating currencies, and stronger domestic growth engines. He explains why today’s emerging markets are no longer just export stories, why China, Taiwan, South Korea and India now dominate the field, and why widening economic growth differentials could support another year — or even two — of international outperformance. In the Mailbag, we globe-trot through investor questions on India where Matthew remains constructive long term but cautious near term given valuations and slowing flows. We discuss MercadoLibre (MELI) and rising competition from Amazon (AMZN) and Sea Limited (SE), why he exited Pop Mart (9992.HK) after peak Labubu growth, the activist push at Japanese toilet-maker Toto and what that says about the Japanese market (5332.T), and whether luxury giant LVMH (MC.PA) needs a stronger Chinese consumer before becoming attractive again. In Pro Picks, Matthew shares three high-conviction international ideas. First, Samsung Electronics (005930.KS), where he sees upside from high-bandwidth memory (HBM4) tied to the AI build-out despite lingering execution risks. Second, Alibaba (BABA), which he believes is evolving from a pure e-commerce story into a full-stack AI cloud infrastructure player in China. And third, Vista Energy (VIST), a fast-growing Argentine shale producer with improving well productivity, low break-even costs around $45 oil, and a disciplined balance sheet positioned to benefit from export-priced crude.

    AI is Eating Software — Is This Sell-Off Overdone?

    AI was supposed to supercharge software. Instead, it’s threatening to disrupt it. Ivana Delevska, Founder & CIO of Spear Advisors, joins In the Money with Amber Kanwar to break down whether the brutal software sell-off is justified — or overdone. As hyperscalers ramp capex and next-generation AI agents get more powerful, investors are questioning which business models survive and which get left behind. Ivana explains why AI is no longer one broad trade, why valuation suddenly matters again, and where she believes the real opportunity now sits in the value chain. In the mailbag, Ivana tackles your biggest stock questions: Is the drop in Oracle (ORCL) a buying opportunity despite its leverage and OpenAI exposure? What does the reset in software mean for Constellation Software (CSU.TO)? After strong growth and free cash flow, did the market overreact to Shopify (SHOP)? Is Snowflake (SNOW) simply too expensive at current multiples? And what should investors do with Palantir (PLTR), Nvidia (NVDA), and Micron (MU) as the AI cycle rotates from chips to memory to infrastructure? In Pro Picks, Ivana begins by revisiting her past calls — including Constellation Energy (CEG), Nvidia (NVDA), and Marvell (MRVL) — explaining where she’s taken profits, reduced exposure, and why parts of the AI trade have shifted from offensive to defensive. She then shares where she sees the next leg of upside: Coherent (COHR) in optical networking, KLA Corp (KLAC) in semiconductor capital equipment, and Arista Networks (ANET) in AI networking — areas she believes can still compound strongly as the AI spending cycle moves deeper into hardware and connectivity.

    The Most Hated Sector is Rallying — Is Biotech Back?

    Biotech stocks were left for dead — written off after years of brutal bear markets, failed trials, rising rates, and policy shocks. But what if the sector is quietly waking up? On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Amber sits down with Eden Rahim, Portfolio Manager at Next Edge Capital, to unpack why one of the market’s most volatile and misunderstood sectors may be entering a new bull cycle. Eden walks us through biotech’s “nuclear winter” — from the 2011–2015 boom, to rolling bear markets, to the post-COVID hangover that crushed even former darlings like Moderna. He explains why extreme capitulation readings — with companies trading below net cash and only 1% of stocks above their 50-day moving average — signaled a generational bottom. And since April, biotech has quietly been outperforming the S&P 500… without the headlines. But this is not a “buy the ETF and forget it” story. Eden breaks down why biotech is the ultimate stock-picker’s market, how he handicaps regulatory, clinical and commercial risk, and why he focuses on post-Phase 2 companies where the odds shift dramatically. He also addresses the new wild card investors must navigate: shifting FDA goalposts and regulatory uncertainty. In the Mailbag, Amber and Eden tackle stocks that aren’t exactly household names for most investors. They break down Sarepta (SRPT) and whether its dramatic collapse reflects broader gene therapy risks. They discuss WELL Health (WELL) and why the stock can lag even when analyst targets look optimistic. They also look at DRI Healthcare (DRI.UN), the pharmaceutical royalty company offering dividend-paying exposure to drug innovation, and whether its leveraged royalty model is a smarter way to get biotech-like upside with cash flow. Plus, they touch on why Canadian biotech companies often migrate south — and what that means for investors hunting for overlooked opportunities. In Pro Picks, Eden shares three high-conviction ideas: Alpha Cognition (ACOG), a newly approved Alzheimer’s therapy with improved tolerability and strong commercial runway; ClearPoint Neuro (CLPT), a brain-delivery platform embedded across dozens of gene therapy programs; and NeurAxis (NRXS), a small-cap device company targeting gut-brain disorders with expanding reimbursement tailwinds. Volatile, under-the-radar — and potentially early leaders in a new biotech cycle. And don’t forget to vote on your favourite In the Money swag ideas!

    A Value Investor’s Guide to Precious Metals

    Gold and silver have been rocked in recent weeks, so what should investors do now? According to Jonathan Wellum gold isn’t just a trade — it’s insurance. The President & CEO of ROCKLINC Investment Partners and former money manager to Canadian billionaire Michael Lee-Chin, joins In the Money with Amber Kanwar to lay out why soaring government debt, currency debasement, and rising geopolitical friction have pushed him to one of his most conviction-heavy stances yet: a portfolio anchored by gold, silver, and precious-metal businesses. Jonathan explains why this cycle still feels early despite the recent sell-off, how central-bank buying has reshaped the gold market, and why sharp volatility hasn’t shaken his long-term thesis. Drawing on decades of experience as a disciplined value investor, Jonathan explains why precious-metal royalty companies form the backbone of his exposure, offering cash-flow durability without the same operational risks as miners. He also walks through silver’s extreme swings, why supply deficits still matter despite violent pullbacks, and how electrification, AI infrastructure, and data-centre demand are quietly tightening metals markets — all while stressing that gold’s role in portfolios is protection first, speculation second. While precious metals are a core pillar of his strategy, Jonathan makes it clear he’s far from a one-theme investor. He also breaks down how he’s selectively allocating to insurance, industrials and global compounders — areas where valuations have reset and disciplined capital allocation still offers long-term upside. In the Mailbag, Jonathan weighs in on whether investors have “missed” the move in Wheaton Precious Metals (WPM), breaks down the upside torque in Agnico Eagle Mines (AEM) if gold prices stay elevated, and explains why royalty models continue to outperform through cycles. He also addresses volatility in silver-exposed names, comments on Cameco (CCO) amid the nuclear renaissance, and shares why he’s cautious about junior miners despite the temptation of leverage. He also fields questions on Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B), Fairfax Financial (FFH), Markel (MKL), and Trisura Group (TSU). The discussion extends to technology names caught in the AI-driven selloff — including ServiceNow (NOW) and Thomson Reuters (TRI), and he also gives his take on Constellation Software (CSU) as he outlines how he separates true value opportunities from potential value traps. In Pro Picks, Jonathan shares three high-conviction ideas that reflect his diversified, valuation-driven approach. He highlights Carlisle Companies (CSL), a quietly dominant industrial with strong returns on capital; MercadoLibre (MELI), a leading Latin American e-commerce and fintech platform with years of growth runway; and Sprott Inc. (SII), a leveraged way to participate in a broad commodity and precious-metals cycle through asset management rather than direct exposure.
