In this episode of The Canadian Macro Investor, Simon and Dan break down a brutal day for markets as the Nasdaq plunges and semiconductor stocks get hit especially hard. They discuss the role leverage and forced selling may be playing in the decline, why memory stocks can look deceptively cheap at the top of a cycle, and how an AI-driven selloff could eventually spill over into consumer spending through the wealth effect.
They also look at the fallout from the U.S. elections and why opposition to data-centre construction could become a much bigger issue for the AI buildout. Texas alone represents a significant share of projected new capacity, raising questions for companies tied heavily to data centres and NeoCloud infrastructure. Simon and Dan discuss whether this could create an opportunity for Canada given its power resources, available land and infrastructure needs.
The conversation then turns to Anthropic’s upcoming IPO and whether deteriorating AI sentiment could force the company to accept a lower valuation or delay its offering. They also discuss the recent repricing of private AI funding, including OpenAI raising substantially less capital than initially targeted.
Finally, they look at falling oil prices, why the inflationary fallout from the Middle East conflict could linger even if fighting ends, and what could show up in Canada’s federal budget—including infrastructure, electricity, housing incentives, defence spending and another potentially massive deficit.
Stocks/ETFs discussed: SMH, NVDA, ASML, MU, INTC, AMD, MSFT, CRWV, ORCL, SPCX, PWR, GEV

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan break down a packed week of earnings, acquisitions and market-moving news. They start with Reddit after the stock’s sharp decline despite strong revenue and profit growth. The bigger concern is user growth, as Google’s AI Overviews increasingly answer questions without sending users to Reddit—potentially cutting off an important source of new users for the platform.
They also discuss the record $6.3 billion Binance hack, how attackers spent months preparing the breach, and why the incident could push more crypto investors toward competing platforms. Then they turn to Shopify after a volatile post-earnings reaction. Revenue and GMV continued growing around 30%, while AI-driven traffic and purchases are accelerating rapidly—but Shopify’s premium valuation leaves very little room for even small misses.
Apple delivered another solid quarter while continuing to take a much more measured approach to AI spending than the hyperscalers. Simon and Dan discuss strong iPhone and Mac growth, slowing services revenue, rising memory costs and why Apple’s reluctance to spend hundreds of billions building AI infrastructure is suddenly looking more attractive to investors.
Finally, they look at improving volumes at Canadian Pacific Kansas City, Starbucks’ surprisingly strong comparable sales, and Foodtastic’s attempt to take MTY Food Group private as restaurants continue battling higher costs and an increasingly value-conscious consumer.
Stocks discussed: RDDT, SHOP.TO, AAPL, CP.TO, SBUX, MTY.TO, TFI.TO, NVDA

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan compare two of the biggest IPO stories of 2026: SpaceX and Anthropic. While both companies have major exposure to artificial intelligence, their business models, financial profiles and risks couldn't be more different.
They break down SpaceX's increasingly diversified empire, including Starlink, its reusable rocket and launch business, and xAI. They discuss why Starlink remains an important cash-generating asset, the explosive growth coming from xAI, SpaceX's plans to enter the U.S. cellphone market, and the enormous amount of capital required to expand its AI infrastructure.
Then they dig into Anthropic's S-1 and look beyond the eye-popping 1,300% revenue growth. The conversation covers customer concentration, Anthropic's reliance on third-party cloud providers, its heavily usage-based revenue model, improving compute economics and the hundreds of billions of dollars in future infrastructure and lease commitments it has signed.
Finally, Simon and Dan unpack Anthropic's complex financing arrangements—including its massive Broadcom agreement—and discuss dilution risk, AI pricing pressure and what investors are really betting on at a potential 1.5–2 trillion valuation. They finish by answering the big question: if they had to invest in only one, would they choose SpaceX or Anthropic?
Stocks discussed: SPCX, AVGO, AMZN, GOOGL, META, APO, TSLA

In this episode of The Canadian Macro Investor, Simon and Dan break down the Bank of Canada’s latest rate hike and the major shift in its inflation outlook. The Bank now expects inflation to remain elevated for longer, has pushed its return to the 2% target out to 2028, and is openly acknowledging that higher rates could put additional pressure on already-weak housing markets in Toronto and Vancouver.
They then dig into new CMHC data showing growing stress beneath Canada’s mortgage market. Delinquencies among mortgage investment entities have climbed above 11% in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, while more borrowers are seeing their credit deteriorate and mortgage losses continue to build. They also look at Allied Properties REIT after another massive distribution cut sent the stock plunging roughly 30%, and discuss whether the struggling office REIT ultimately needs to be acquired.
Finally, they turn to the AI trade after Google suffered a double-digit post-earnings selloff. Search growth is slowing, AI queries are proving harder to monetize, depreciation is surging and Google expects another significant increase in AI capital expenditures next year. Simon and Dan discuss why the strongest hyperscalers may survive the AI spending boom while heavily leveraged NeoClouds face a much more difficult path as financing dries up.
They wrap up with what companies such as Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Walmart and McDonald’s are telling investors about the increasingly stretched consumer—and why more households are choosing value and eating at home as higher prices and borrowing costs continue to bite.
Stocks discussed: GOOGL, META, MSFT, CRWV, ORCL, AP.UN.TO, TFI.TO, CP.TO, KO, PEP, WMT, MCD

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan start with the Bank of Canada’s latest 25-basis-point rate hike and discuss why sticky inflation, energy costs and a weaker Canadian dollar could be complicating the outlook for rates.
They then turn to the Anthropic S-1, where revenue growth has exploded and compute costs have fallen dramatically relative to sales ahead of what could become one of the largest IPOs ever. They also look at Alimentation Couche-Tard’s latest acquisition ambitions and whether its increasingly aggressive M&A strategy is a sign that organic growth is becoming harder to find.
On the earnings side, Meta delivered another strong advertising quarter but is preparing to raise nearly $100 billion as AI spending surges and free cash flow turns negative. Microsoft is offering voluntary exit packages to tens of thousands of employees, while Celestica posted another monster quarter and raised its 2027 growth outlook dramatically. They finish with Coca-Cola and why it appears to be weathering the pressured consumer environment better than Pepsi.
Stocks discussed: ATD.TO, META, NVDA, AMD, MSFT, CLS.TO, KO

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan take a deep dive into NeoClouds and the increasingly important role debt plays in the AI infrastructure boom.
They explain how companies like CoreWeave finance massive GPU purchases, why its unsecured bonds are now trading at distressed yields, and what the bond market may be signaling about the sustainability of its business model. They also break down the difference between secured and unsecured debt, the risks facing shareholders if CoreWeave is forced to raise more capital, and why even secured GPU-backed financing could become more expensive if AI demand eventually slows.
The conversation also looks beyond CoreWeave to the broader NeoCloud sector, including failed and delayed IPOs, growing competition for capital, and the potential ripple effects for hyperscalers, landlords, Nvidia and memory-chip producers if financing conditions continue to deteriorate.
Finally, Simon and Dan draw parallels with the dot-com infrastructure boom and explain why investors can be completely right about AI changing the world while still losing money by investing in the wrong companies at the wrong valuations.

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan kick off earnings season with SpaceX, where revenue surged 161% as AI and Starlink growth accelerated. But the enormous growth comes with equally enormous spending, including nearly $10 billion of negative free cash flow and plans for another massive jump in capital expenditures. They also discuss Elon Musk’s comments on a potential SpaceX-Tesla merger.
They then turn to Netflix, where revenue growth continues to decelerate and management is providing investors with fewer operating KPIs, before breaking down another strong quarter from BlackRock. Larry Fink also offers a notable warning: for the first time in his 50-year career, he believes the world is facing a shortage of capital as governments and AI infrastructure projects compete for financing.
Finally, they look at Intuitive Surgical’s continued growth in robotic surgery and why its massive installed base could become even more valuable with AI, before wrapping up with A&W and the same affordability pressures showing up across the fast-food industry.
Stocks discussed: SPCX, TSLA, NFLX, BLK, ISRG, AW.TO

Braden Dennis returns to The Canadian Investor as Simon and Dan look beyond the handful of mega-cap stocks driving much of today’s market and ask a simple question: where can investors still find value? With more than 100 S&P 500 companies sitting in corrections despite strong headline index returns, they discuss how extreme market concentration is creating opportunities away from the obvious AI winners. The conversation covers beaten-down apartment REITs, engineering firms trading at unusually low valuations, utilities, healthcare and several long-term compounders that have fallen out of favour. They also discuss why AI could actually become a tailwind for companies like WSP and Intuitive Surgical rather than a threat, and why investors shouldn't assume every cheap stock is automatically a bargain.
Finally, they look at FICO’s massive buybacks, a new wave of private-equity firms buying yesterday’s internet darlings at steep discounts, and the widening generational wealth gap between younger and older households.

In this episode of The Canadian Macro Investor, Simon and Dan dig into growing stress beneath the AI infrastructure boom. CoreWeave’s debt is now trading at distressed yields as its borrowing costs surge, raising questions about how long heavily leveraged AI infrastructure companies can continue financing aggressive expansion. They discuss what a slowdown could mean for Nvidia, memory producers and the broader market if the AI spending cycle begins to unwind. Pasted text Pasted text
They also look at hotter U.S. inflation, the possibility that central banks keep rates higher, and whether the bond market is beginning to price in weaker growth and demand destruction. Meanwhile, the U.S. housing market has fallen into an unusually deep buyer’s market, even as Berkshire Hathaway continues adding to its position in Lennar. Pasted text Pasted text
Finally, they discuss mounting evidence that consumers are trading down as food companies and restaurants struggle to pass along higher costs, what that says about the increasingly K-shaped economy, and why affordability remains the issue households are feeling most directly.

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan break down growing stress at CoreWeave as its unsecured bond yields surge to roughly 15%. They discuss why the company’s enormous debt load, reliance on new financing and potential shareholder dilution are becoming increasingly difficult for the market to ignore. Pasted text
They also look at two companies benefiting heavily from current trends. ASML delivered record revenue as semiconductor equipment demand remains so strong that it expects difficulty fully meeting customer needs through 2027 and 2028, while Aritzia posted another huge quarter with 34% comparable-sales growth and continued rapid expansion in the U.S. Pasted text Pasted text
Finally, they discuss what Pepsi and Domino’s are revealing about a consumer increasingly focused on value, an open-source project attempting to recreate Adobe’s software suite using AI, and Jamie Dimon’s latest comments on inflation, higher yields and risks building beneath an otherwise strong economy.
