Key highlights from the discussion:
- Markets remain resilient despite ongoing geopolitical tensions, with equities near all-time highs
- Strong corporate earnings continue to support markets, particularly driven by large technology companies and AI-related investment
- Elevated valuations and rising interest rates are important risks to monitor, especially as the U.S. 10-year bond yield approaches 5%
- Consumer sentiment remains weak, near levels seen during past economic downturns
- AI capital spending continues at a rapid pace, with markets watching closely for signs that the significant capital being invested translates into real long-term returns.
- Bond markets are signalling caution, with inflation and rising oil prices limiting room for interest rate cuts
- Corporate debt refinancing is an emerging risk, as companies face higher borrowing costs
- Opportunity exists in Canada, where increased investment in resources and infrastructure may support growth
Bottom line:
While markets are supported by strong earnings and innovation, there are clear risks on the horizon. Maintaining a diversified, long-term investment approach remains key.
As always, we remain present, focused and prepared to adjust to what lies ahead.
