In the Money with Amber Kanwar

In this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Amber sits down with Brent Joyce, Chief Investment Strategist and Managing Director at BMO Private Investment Counsel, who oversees $50 billion in assets. They unpack the recent market volatility, driven largely by tariffs, and explore what investors need to know in a rapidly shifting macro landscape.Brent explains why sharp market corrections—like a 10% drop—are not only normal but the “price of admission” for equity investors. He draws insightful comparisons between today’s environment and past crises, making the case that what we’re experiencing now has more in common with COVID than with the dot-com bubble or the 2008 financial crisis. Rather than calling it American exceptionalism, Brent argues that it’s global business success simply headquartered in the U.S., and why that distinction matters.He also makes a strong case for Canadian equities, pointing to their global reach, attractive valuations, and solid dividends—arguing that Canada may be one of the most overlooked markets right now. On the fixed income side, Brent breaks down why bonds are still an essential part of a balanced portfolio, and he points out why the European market is one to watch but not get too carried away. Ultimately, Brent urges a defensive but steady approach: stay invested, stay diversified, and don’t let the noise knock you off course. If you want clarity, strategy, and perspective on where the markets might go next, this episode delivers.Timestamps00:00 Show intro01:20 Amber welcomes Brent Joyce 02:20 How did Brent know the market would rebound? 03:30 Why this time is more like the covid crash than the dot-com bubble or GFC 07:00 Why Brent believes in global exceptionalism not American exceptionalism09:00 Why Brent is still bullish on the U.S. market10:50 Is a recession on the horizon?13:15 Break: Amber speaks to the CEO of Raymond James Canada about how the company is helping clients navigate volatility and change15:35 Brent’s inflation expectations17:30 Is the Fed behind the curve?18:30 How will the trade war impact the Canadian economy?19:50 Pro Picks33:30 ETF Minute: CI’s new Solana ETFSponsors​This episode is sponsored by BMO InvestorLine.

In this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar top tech investor Dan Niles warns that the market could drop as much as 50%, just like during the dot-com bust and the global financial crisis. He unpacks the major risks that investors aren’t paying enough attention to like AI over exuberance and demand being pulled forward as a result of Trump’s trade war, while drawing parallels to some of the worst market crashes in history. Dan explains why his highest conviction idea right now is cash despite the AI hype, and why some of today’s biggest tech names — like Apple, Google, and Palantir — may be far more vulnerable than most investors realize. He stresses his concern over inflated valuations, making the point that “just because a stock is popular doesn’t mean it’s safe".One area Dan is optimistic about: networking infrastructure. He names Cisco as one of his most intriguing picks, arguing it's a forgotten name that could benefit as AI shifts from a build-out phase to a data movement phase. With a low valuation, solid fundamentals, and potential for a re-rating, Cisco — along with cash, Microsoft, and (cautiously) Nvidia — rounds out his list of favoured plays in a market he still views as overvalued and vulnerable.
Whether you’re a long-term investor or a market watcher trying to make sense of the rally, this is an essential deep dive from one of Wall Street’s most seasoned voices.Timestamps00:00 Show Intro3:40 Why Dan Niles is bearish right now and why cash is his highest conviction idea  07:40 What would it take for Dan to come back to the market and get out of cash? 09:35 Why Dan thinks a 50% drop in stocks is on the table11:30 Why this time can be compared to the dot-com bust17:33 Taking a look at the AARK Innovation Fund19:15 But could this time be different? 24:25 ITM Mailbag: Dan’s thoughts on Palantir (PLTR) and its sky-high valuation 27:40 Dan’s view on Shopify vs. Amazon (SHOP, AMZN)34:15 Is Reddit a buy, sell or hold?

Are you making these critical mistakes in your portfolio? In this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, renowned investor and author Meb Faber breaks down what most investors get wrong—and what to do instead.Meb dives deep into the three investing pillars he believes will define the next era: global diversification, value investing, and trend following. He explains why most investors are overly concentrated in their home countries and why sticking to U.S. stocks may no longer be the smartest move—highlighting markets like Poland, Japan, and the UK.He also unpacks the power of shareholder yield—a blend of dividends and buybacks—and reveals why investors overlook this metric at their own risk. Learn how Meb uses it to find underpriced companies flush with cash.Plus, with news that Warren Buffett will step down from Berkshire Hathaway at the end of the year, Meb refers to the legendary investor as “the GOAT” and uses his example to underscore how portfolio strategies—even from the greats—can appear simple on the surface, but often require a deeper understanding to replicate responsibly.In the Pro Picks segment, Meb tells us where he’s investing his own money right now, offering three of Cambria’s ETFs as top suggestions to end a fascinating interview: SYLD, GVAL and TRTY.Whether you're rethinking your global exposure, questioning the 60/40 model, or simply trying to invest smarter in uncertain times—this episode is a must-watch.Timestamps00:00 Show Intro01:20 How to trade with BMO InvestorLine03:15 Meb Faber’s origin story08:00 Meb on AI, big ideas and what’s coming next09:40 Meb’s approach to value investing12:45 How to construct a portfolio for long-term gains: Why diversification is key  16:00 A big problem for investors is ‘home country bias’17:15  Why trend following is key to portfolio construction, why investors need to be asset class agnostic and why market timing is actually possible23:10 Meb on Warren Buffett and what he taught us about investing27:50 Meb on Buffett’s strategy30:00 What Meb thinks about tariffs and why they aren’t the reason for the change in global flows36:10 Meb’s view on U.S. innovation and the future39:40 Break: Amber speaks to Raymond James Canada CEO Jamie Coulter about navigating volatile U.S.-Canada ties42:00 ITM Mailbag: Meb elaborates on the concept of a shareholder yield approach44:30 Meb’s views on the benefits of share buybacks to individual shareholders as opposed to institutional shareholders46:50 How Meb thinks about when to sell an investment 50:15 Meb’s Pro Picks1:03:50 Goodbye & coming upSponsorsThis episode is sponsored by BMO InvestorLine.

When markets are in turmoil, investors traditionally flock to healthcare for stability — but what happens when healthcare itself is a flashpoint for volatility? In this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar Robert Moffat of Middlefield joins to unpack the biggest headwinds facing the sector right now.From the controversial appointment of RFK Jr. to looming drug tariffs, Rob dives deep into the policy and market forces disrupting pharma, medtech, and healthcare services. He shares why he's staying defensive, what names he's avoiding (sorry, Pfizer holders), and where he's seeing opportunities amid the chaos. In a volatile healthcare market, Rob explains why he’s particularly positive on GLP-1 weight loss and diabetes medications which he says are reshaping the future of healthcare. He tells us why Eli Lilly, which makes Mounjaro and Zepbound, is his top holding and why he prefers it over Ozempic maker Novo Nordisk. He also suggests other names he likes right now including Abbott Laboratories and McKesson, which he says is the ultimate defensive safe haven company in healthcare.Timestamps00:00 Show Intro01:40 Rob’s approach to volatility in healthcare  03:10 RFK Jr. and his impact on the healthcare sector06:50 The headwind from tariffs13:00 Why Rob thinks M&A in the pharma space is definitely coming 14:50 ITM Mailbag: Rob’s outlook on Pfizer (PFE.NYSE)18:35 Rob’s thoughts on UnitedHealth Group (UNH.NYSE)22:00 Why Rob thinks CVS (CVS.NYSE) is one of the biggest ‘show me’ stories in healthcare 27:35 Rob’s thoughts on Medtronic (MDT.NYSE) and its dividend 30:35 Rob’s outlook on Stryker (SYK.NYSE)33:15 Rob’s view of Johnson & Johnson (JNJ-NYSE) in light of tariffs35:30 Rob’s Pro Picks 47:30 Goodbye & coming up Sponsors​​This episode is sponsored by BMO InvestorLine.

The market may be laser-focused on Donald Trump’s trade war but James Davolos of Horizon Kinetics says tariffs or not, the tide is turning — and savvy investors should be paying attention. In this wide-ranging conversation, Davolos breaks down why we're leaving behind the "golden era" of ultra-low interest rates, globalization, and free capital, and entering a new investing regime marked by inflation, deglobalization, and resource scarcity. Davolos, who the WSJ named the best fund manager of 2022, outlines how to position your portfolio for long-term resilience, with a focus on capital-light businesses tied to real assets — think infrastructure, energy, and gold — but without the usual baggage of cyclicality and capex-heavy models. He explains his unique approach and offers specific stocks that fit into his model, including his top 3 stock picks focused on water as real asset, exchanges as financial infrastructure and royalty companies as resource winners. Timestamps 00:00 Show intro 02:30 James Davolos explains his unique approach to investing 08:00 Why does James think we're in the midst of a major regime shift13:05 Why James isn’t even paying attention to tariffs15:15 Why James likes real assets and how he finds the best ones21:00 Why James believes the U.S. is headed towards stagflation and his view on rates23:05 James’s view on gold25:45 Are we seeing the end to U.S. exceptionalism in stocks?28:00 ITM Mailbag: Will volatility be good for exchanges like the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE.NYSE)33:10 Is Brookfield a stock that can help weather the current storm?
