We connect with portfolio manager Jeff Moore to get his thoughts on the US elections, the impending rate cute announcement by the Fed and how both events could potentially affect the markets. Jeff says the market stability hinges on timely election results in the bond and stock markets. He says investors should maintain existing trades and add the main stabilizer of the bond markets will depend on if there are clear cut election results. Jeff says there is a high likelihood that the current government debt will prompt higher taxes, cause spending cuts, and potentially both higher taxes and spending cuts could occur. No matter the result, the election is expected to bring stability as markets revert to usual trends post-certification. Jeff says it’s important to continue to focus on inflation, employment, and GDP growth, and shaping monetary policy and rates.

In today’s episode, Vince Kraljevic joins us to discuss ETF strategies for the fourth quarter, highlighting common misconceptions about ETFs, and how active management is reshaping this space. Vince talks about how falling interest rates could boost small and mid-cap stocks, with his team screening smaller companies for hidden opportunities within the Russell 1000. With a quality focused approach, the fund prioritizes financially sound companies with sustainable business models, helping mitigate risks in rising rate environments. In passive ETFs, there’s a concentration risk around the major tech players. Vince details how active ETF strategies rebalance to avoid overexposure to these stocks, instead focusing on factors like value, quality, and low volatility. Vince also explains that Canada is at the forefront of active ETFS – with 40% actively managed versus only 5% in the U.S. These active ETFs aim to diversify holdings, helping investors avoid concentration risk often associated with passive investing. He closes off by talking about how the fund is currently integrating AI and sector trends – such as renewable energy - by adjusting allocation to capture stable growth areas like industrials, utilities, and energy infrastructure.

On Wednesday October 23, Fidelity Canada hosted VISION 2024 in Toronto, connecting our portfolio managers and experts with advisors. On today’s show we’ll hear portfolio manager Connor Gordon’s VISION sit-down with host Glen Davidson, to discuss the investment strategy behind Fidelity Global Small Cap Opportunities Fund, and how investors could benefit from investing in this space. Connor manages the fund alongside portfolio manager Chris Maludzinski. Today's uncertain marketplace has highlighted the importance of investing in high-quality names, characterized by sound balance sheet structures that enable companies to weather more challenging environments. Although some investors correlate high-quality names with large cap companies, that isn’t necessarily true. The small cap space consists of several high-quality businesses with tremendous growth potential. In September 2022, Fidelity launched Global Small Cap Opportunities Fund, which aims to uncover value by identifying high quality companies that are mispriced. Connor reflects on how the fund has performed since launch, including the looking at the current investment landscape. Also, how a stock is researched and selected to be apart of this high-conviction portfolio of typically 40–80 small cap companies anywhere in the world.

Today on the show, Director of Quantitative Market Strategy Denise Chisholm joins us to discusses the economic drivers that matter most to investors right now – growth, inflation, and sector-specific opportunities. Denise highlights that while inflation does impact interest rates, it’s the growth narrative that ultimately drives equity markets and investor confidence. She explains that if rates are high, but growth remains robust, cuts are less likely; however, if growth lags, rate cuts could be on the horizon. On a consumer front, Denise talks about how inflation has dampened real wage growth, impacting purchasing power and sentiment. She points out, however, that positive income growth has recently returned, hinting that consumer confidence could gradually strengthen. Denise also advises to focus on long-term drivers, like earnings and income growth, rather than getting caught up in election-related volatility. With low valuations and resilient consumer spending, small-cap stocks in consumer discretionary may offer significant opportunities as interest rates stabilize.

Monday Nov 04, 2024
In this episode, host Pamela Ritchie is joined by US Equity Research Analyst Chase Bethel to explore the evolving dynamics within consumer staples, retail growth strategies, and the pressures of inflation on everyday purchases.

He then discusses how rising operational costs are filtering down to consumers, particularly in grocery prices, which have surged by over 20%. Chase explains that these prices are likely to stay high, as retailers are grappling with enduring supplier and labour cost increases. Chase says for many households, dollar stores have now become a go-to, due to providing accessible price points. Chase closes off by discussing how the shift to digital retailing is here to stay, especially for groceries and even used car markets. He emphasizes that consumers are increasingly drawn to the convenience and accessibility of online shopping, a trend that has become integral to retails strategy and customer expectations.

October 2024 Bank of Canada reaction – Don Drummond
Wednesday Oct 30, 2024
Wednesday Oct 30, 2024
Today we’re joined by economist Don Drummond for a live reaction of the Bank of Canada’s recent policy announcement. Don breaks down the Bank of Canada’s surprising decision to cut interest rates by 50 basis points, and what this means for the Canadian economy, housing market, and consumers. The rate cut is largely aimed at stimulating housing demand and supply, although Don points out that this move is unlikely to significantly impact housing prices. Instead, it serves as a boost to housing availability, potentially easing some pressure on a market in dire need of dense and affordable housing options. Addressing the broader economic impacts on the Canadian dollar and productivity, Don highlights a notable productivity gap between Canada and the U.S., which is tied to a weaker Loonie. This 20% disparity is a key challenge, as a less competitive currency can strain Canadian productivity growth relative to the U.S.

Analyst perspectives: Insurance and real estate sectors – Connor MacGrath
Friday Oct 25, 2024
Friday Oct 25, 2024
Today we speak to Fidelity Equity Research Associate Connor MacGrath. He discusses how cooling inflation and current market trends are shaping opportunities in the Canadian real estate and insurance sectors. Connor says as rates come down, the U.S. economy is holding a bit stronger while Canada's economy is slowing down. This is creating wider levels of dispersion within the real estate and insurance sectors, but from this dispersion, Fidelity can leverage its research capabilities allowing to pinpoint new investment opportunities. Connor highlights opportunities in retail real estate. He says grocery-anchored power centres are doing well. The industrial real estate sector however is slowing down, but some owners are turning to building data centers because of secured power access, which makes them attractive investments. Connor also touches on new trends in life insurance and the impact of AI on the insurance sector.

Today we speak to co-managers of Fidelity Global Small Caps Opportunities fund Connor Gordon and Chris Maludzinski as they give an update on the fund, talk about their investing strategy, and where they are finding hidden gems in North America and globally. Chris explains how the fund provides access to a broader range of companies across the world, offering exposure to sectors and regions often overlooked by larger-cap funds. He adds the fund focuses on identifying companies undergoing positive changes or temporary setbacks, which creates opportunities for value-driven gains as businesses recover or grow. Connor says the fund is heavily weighted toward industrials and energy sectors, especially in themes like nuclear energy for decarbonization and AI infrastructure, which are poised for long-term growth. Connor adds that although it’s difficult to predict moving inflation or interest rates, the fund takes advantage of market dislocations caused by macroeconomic changes, allowing them to find undervalued opportunities.

Where we are in the business cycle: October 2024 – Cait Dourney
Monday Oct 21, 2024
Monday Oct 21, 2024
Today on the program we speak to Fidelity U.S. Asset Allocation Research Analyst Cait Dourney. As a research analyst, Cait covers mostly economies in the US, China, India, Europe, Canada, and then provides asset allocation recommendations to the multi asset class portfolio managers. Cait discusses the global business cycle, the unexpected normalization in the US labour market, and why Canada could have potential investment opportunities. In terms of the business cycle, Cait says the U.S. is still in an expansion phase, supported by strong corporate and consumer sectors, with mid-cycle dynamics like profit margin growth. Profit margins and credit conditions are improving and the labor market is normalizing, reducing immediate recession risks. And she adds recession risks have decreased globally, and international earnings revisions are now outpacing the U.S., leading to cautious optimism about non-U.S. markets. Cait also touches on Canada’s rate-sensitive economy, inflation concerns, and China’s slowing economy.

Friday Oct 18, 2024
Joining us on today’s show is a special guest, Peter Bethlenfalvy, Ontario Finance Minister. When investors talk about Canada’s economy, productivity tops the chart in terms of conversations. But the nuance that doesn’t get highlighted enough is that ours is an economy of economies, with provinces and territories. Ontario is the largest economy, accounting for nearly 40% of our GDP - how is the productivity picture there? Today, Minister Bethlenfalvy, who is also MPP for Pickering-Uxbridge, will speak to host Pamela Ritchie about our economic future in both Ontario and Canada as whole. We’ll also hear about the path to balance Ontario’s budget, auto manufacturing, mining, green bonds, and financial literacy in school curriculums.
