In this episode, Simon and Dan go deep on two Canadian companies with very different investment stories. Simon breaks down an under-the-radar Canadian compounder with a surprisingly diverse business spanning labels, RFID technology, packaging and even polymer banknotes. Dan looks at a company that has become a major beneficiary of the data-centre boom—but whose explosive growth also brings some important risks. Pasted text They discuss each company's business model, growth outlook, margins, balance sheet, valuation, competitive position and the biggest risks investors should understand.

Oil, diesel and jet fuel prices are surging, putting renewed pressure on consumers and inflation. Simon and Dan discuss what higher energy costs could mean for the Bank of Canada and the Fed, why bond yields continue to rise, and how higher borrowing costs could ripple through housing and the broader economy. They also dig into the increasingly heated debate around AI: massive spending, circular financing, heavily subsidized AI models, and whether concerns about AI safety are legitimate—or partly about regulation, funding and protecting the industry's biggest players. Plus, they look at Canada's latest inflation data, the Canadian dollar, the country's natural-resource advantage, and why higher rates can actually benefit some savers and retirees.

Lululemon was once one of the strongest brands in retail. Now comparable sales are falling, guidance has been cut repeatedly, and investors are asking whether the company can regain its footing—or whether its best days are behind it. In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan dig into why fashion companies can be some of the most difficult businesses to own for the long term. Consumer tastes can change quickly, switching costs are virtually nonexistent, aggressive expansion can backfire, and excessive discounting can train customers to stop paying full price. They look back at Express, Quiksilver and Aeropostale, three once-popular brands whose public shareholders were eventually wiped out, and contrast them with some remarkable comeback stories. Abercrombie & Fitch reinvented its brand, Victoria’s Secret changed course, and Crocs nearly went under before doubling down on the product that made it famous. Finally, Simon and Dan discuss what these examples could teach investors about Lululemon, whether its turnaround could take years, and why waiting for evidence of a recovery may make more sense than trying to perfectly time the bottom. Stocks discussed: LULU, ATZ.TO, GOOS, GRGD.TO, GAP, NKE, ANF, VSXY, CROX, ADS.DE.  Subscribe to our Our New Youtube Channel!
