In the Money with Amber Kanwar

Everyone calls David Rosenberg a permabear but he says he’s fully invested, just in completely different places than the consensus.
On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Rosenberg breaks down why he’s still in the market despite sounding the alarm on what he sees as extreme valuations, bubble-like behaviour, and a dangerous level of investor complacency. From a “teflon market” that shrugs off every shock, to an equity market where investors are effectively paying to take risk, he explains why this cycle feels eerily similar to the late-90s tech mania.
He pushes back on the dominant narrative around AI and government spending, arguing the real economy is far weaker beneath the surface. Strip out AI, and growth looks sluggish. Strip out a handful of mega-cap names, and market returns look far less impressive. For Rosenberg, this is a sentiment-driven market—one where momentum is masking rising risks.
At the same time, Rosenberg is leaning heavily into an area most investors have written off: government bonds. He’s bullish on short-term bonds in both Canada and the U.S., arguing markets are mispricing the path of interest rates. While investors brace for more inflation and potential hikes, he sees disinflation ahead—driven by weak wage growth and slowing demand—which could force central banks to cut. In his view, that disconnect creates a compelling opportunity in the front end of the bond market.
In Pro Picks, he lays out exactly where he is putting money to work in addition to government bonds. He’s bullish on commodities across the board—gold, base metals, energy infrastructure, and agriculture—driven by long-term supply constraints and a shift toward resource security. He also highlights defense as a stealth tech play with strong earnings visibility, and sees clean energy as a geopolitical trade tied to energy independence. His message is clear: stay invested, but stay disciplined—because when the cycle turns, valuation will matter again.

Inflation is surging again and it’s driving savvy investors to rethink how to manage their portfolios. So, what assets should you buy right now to protect your wealth?
On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, James Davolos, Portfolio Manager and Director of Research at Horizon Kinetics, breaks down why investors need to reconsider everything they know about portfolio construction in a higher inflation world. He explains why a simple “buy gold” strategy isn’t enough, why real assets are still early in a long-term cycle, and why targeting 10%+ returns is essential just to stay ahead of rising prices.
From infrastructure and commodities to royalties, land, and even water, Davolos lays out the framework for building a portfolio designed to generate growing cash flows that outpace inflation—and why traditional equity benchmarks may no longer offer true diversification.
On gold, Davolos remains constructive long term, arguing that structural deficits, central bank demand, and the need for a store of value continue to support the thesis—even if short-term volatility and macro crosscurrents create noise along the way.
In the Mailbag, the focus turns to silver, which he describes as a higher-beta version of gold with both monetary and industrial demand tailwinds. He explains why he prefers to play it through royalty and streaming companies like Wheaton Precious Metals (WPM) to reduce operational risk—before broadening out to other real asset opportunities, including Brookfield (BEP.UN / BIP.UN), Glencore (GLEN), RB Global (RBA), and the long-term uranium trade through Cameco (CCO) and NextGen Energy (NXE).
In Pro Picks, Davolos revisits past ideas like PrairieSky Royalty (PSK.TO) and TMX Group (X.TO), reinforcing his conviction in royalties and exchange businesses as high-margin, inflation-linked compounders. He then introduces three new high-conviction names: Miami International Holdings (MIAX), a fast-growing exchange gaining share in a structurally expanding derivatives market with significant upside tied to new index and options products; Sprott Inc. (SII.TO), a 70%+ margin asset manager leveraged to sustained inflows into physical real asset strategies; and LandBridge (LB), a unique Permian Basin land and water infrastructure play with built-in growth from energy production and additional upside from AI-driven data center demand. Across all three, the common thread is clear: scarce assets, powerful operating leverage, and asymmetric return potential in an inflationary world.

Canada just slipped into a technical recession, stocks are sitting at record highs— and one renowned $22 billion firm is leaning in, not backing away.
On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Alex Letko, Portfolio Manager at LetkoBrosseau, explains why he remains bullish on Canada despite growing skepticism. While headlines point to slowing GDP, he argues the underlying economy is more resilient than it feels—supported by real wage growth and steady consumer spending. He also tackles a debate in the market right now: Canadian banks trading at record highs and premium valuations. Rather than calling it a bubble, he makes the case that strong earnings, oligopolistic structure, and potential pension fund inflows could continue to support the group.
At the same time, Letko outlines why the firm has been more cautious globally—pointing to stretched valuations and extreme concentration in the U.S. market. With over 80% of the S&P 500 trading above 20x earnings, he explains why they’ve been trimming winners and holding cash to redeploy into better opportunities, including Canada.
In the Mailbag, the conversation starts with BCE (BCE.TO), where Letko sees a compelling turnaround story with a sustainable dividend and limited optimism priced in. He also weighs in on Canadian telcos more broadly, the surprising strength in auto parts makers like Linamar (LNR.TO) and Magna (MG.TO) despite tariff concerns, and why his firm has trimmed energy exposure even with oil prices pushing higher. The discussion then shifts globally, breaking down the AI-driven surge in semiconductor names like Samsung (005930.KS) and SK Hynix (000660.KS), where tight memory supply could persist—but the cycle remains key. He also highlights Brazil as an emerging opportunity, where improving fundamentals and potential political change could drive a re-rating.
In Pro Picks, Letko doubles down on those global themes—starting with Copel (CPLE6.SA), a Brazilian utility he sees as a high-quality, low-cost operator with strong dividend upside. He also highlights Bolsa Mexicana (BOLSAA.MX), the Mexican stock exchange, as a “moaty” way to play long-term financial penetration. And back in Canada, he makes a contrarian call on Air Canada (AC.TO), arguing that despite near-term volatility, improving margins and a shift toward premium travel could drive meaningful earnings growth over time.

“Patience is a virtue—sometimes the best trade is the one you don’t rush.” On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Jimmy Lebenthal, Chief Equity Strategist & Partner at Cerity Partners, makes the case for looking where others aren’t. He explains why patience still wins, how to navigate “parabolic” markets, and why he’s still putting fresh money to work in names like Cisco (CSCO)—a stock he’s owned for over a decade that’s now finding new life in the AI buildout. He also shares lessons from his new book, How to Ride the Subway: Getting Around on Wall Street and in Life, including why sometimes the best strategy is simply staying on the train.
He also dives into the most debated corner of the market right now: software. Lebenthal explains why he’s actively adding to names like Microsoft (MSFT), Adobe (ADBE), Salesforce (CRM), and ServiceNow (NOW), arguing the market may have overreacted to AI disruption fears and created opportunity in high-quality businesses with strong cash flow and buyback support.
In the Mailbag, Lebenthal breaks down a wide range of stocks and sectors, including why he’s avoiding Lululemon (LULU) despite the selloff, his outlook on Disney (DIS) as a potential turnaround story, and how he’s thinking about banks—comparing Citigroup (C) and JPMorgan (JPM). He also weighs in on Dell (DELL) after its recent surge and shares his broader view on energy markets and global supply dynamics.
In Pro Picks, Lebenthal sticks with high-conviction ideas. He highlights Cisco (CSCO) as a long-term compounder tied to AI infrastructure demand, Cheniere Energy (LNG) as a key beneficiary of the global LNG expansion, and AbbVie (ABBV) as an attractive opportunity in a lagging healthcare sector with strong cash flows, a growing pipeline, and a compelling valuation.

Semiconductors are ripping, trillion-dollar valuations are becoming the norm, and now the most hyped IPO in years is looming. So… is this the moment everything peaks? On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Mark Sebastian, Founder of Option Pit, returns with a view of a market that’s moving faster—and getting more crowded—by the day. From Micron’s explosive run to Nvidia’s “vampire trade” losing steam, Mark explains how capital is rotating across semis in real time—and why he’s not shorting this market, even as signs of froth start to build. He points to Intel (INTC) as proof of how powerful this cycle has been—after flagging it on this show over a year ago, the stock has surged more than 400%, so it's worth listening to his thoughts this time around. Still, he warns that a ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran could be a sell-the-news moment, potentially triggering a rotation out of equities just as liquidity gets pulled into the SpaceX IPO and other major AI offerings. 
In the mailbag, Mark tackles everything from Canadian oil to gold, defense, luxury, and broken stocks like Disney (DIS). He makes the case that energy could see one last selloff before becoming a generational buying opportunity, explains why gold’s pullback is more about normalization than weakness, and shares why names like Diageo (DEO) are getting squeezed in a shifting consumer landscape. He also weighs in on Salesforce (CRM), Brookfield Corp. (BN), Brookfield Asset Management (BAM), and why Disney might still be worth holding despite years of frustration.

In Pro Picks, Mark revisits his past calls—highlighting how he traded around winners like Intel (INTC) and Reddit (RDDT), while stepping away from Boeing (BA) after a solid run and staying constructive on Amazon (AMZN). Then he unveils a fresh batch of ideas: from “hidden AI plays” like Deere (DE) and Ford (F), to high-risk/high-reward bets in rare earths like USA Rare Earth and American Resources (AREC). He also shares a surprising contrarian call on Mattel (MAT), tied to what he believes could be the Barbie moment of 2026. This is a masterclass in how traders think about momentum, timing, and risk in a market that refuses to slow down.
