We often need to remind ourselves that "international investing" doesn't just mean replicating things that worked in one country and translating them into another.
Countries all have their unique peculiarities. Some, like our domestic U-S-of-A, enjoy watching baseball, eating hot dogs, and shooting off fireworks for the Fourth of July. For others, like our beloved neighbor to the North, it's more about hockey, beaver tails, and Boxing Day.
But Canada also offers a different intrigue in its investing culture. Its stock market is dominated by massive corporations who compete in energy, materials, and financial oligopolies. Nutrien (TSX: NTR) sells $30 billion per year of agricultural fertilizers every year, while Enbridge (TSX/NYSE: ENB) does $40 billion annually primarily in liquid fuels. Meanwhile, progressive cities like Toronto house cutting-edge tech companies in telecom, e-commerce, and artificial intelligence. Blackberry (TSX/NYSE: BB) (formerly Research in Motion) and Shopify (TSX/NYSE: SHOP) are examples who call Canada home, yet are publicly-traded on both the Toronto and the New York exchanges.
We're already well-aware of the volatility caused by the rising inflation and the rate hikes here in America. Are the same macroeconomic challenges facing Canada as well? And beyond those short-term challenges, are there opportunities in the Great White North that long-term investors should be considering?
To answer those questions, 7investing CEO Simon Erickson recently interviewed The Canadian Investor host Braden Dennis. Braden closely follows Canada's equity market and covers its opportunities on his podcast. He is also the CEO of Stratosphere, a financial data platform to help investors save time and jump directly into a company's most relevant metrics.
In the conversation, Braden shares his thoughts about Canada's equity markets, real estate prices, impact of COVID, and secular trends that are developing. The two discuss why Constellation Software (TSX: CSU.TO), Brookfield Corporation (NYSE: BN), and Shopify (TSX/NYSE: SHOP) are opportunities that investors should consider.
