Across six quick episodes, Mike and Vero cover where markets were in 2025, what could derail portfolios in 2026, how to think about high-yield stocks safely, and how to tighten your process so you can invest with conviction. Here are the three from this week; sneak preview of the last three tomorrow. ### **How to Invest in 2026: Series Intro** Mike and Vero kick off the year with a fast roadmap of what’s coming in the series and why your _process_ matters more than predictions. **Key takeaways** - A new year is a good trigger to review strategy—even if investing is a long game. - The market will do what it does; your edge is a repeatable process. ### **Market Review: What’s Next?** A recap of what drove 2025 and why “waiting on the sidelines” often costs more than it protects. The discussion touches Canada’s surprise outperformance, the AI ripple effect across sectors, and **why narratives can get investors into trouble**. **Key takeaways** - Three straight double-digit years can create complacency—and bad timing decisions. - Canada’s strength was fueled by: - Banks and life insurers (capital markets + wealth management tailwinds) - Gold miners (the “debasement trade”) - Utilities/industrials tied to powering and building data centers - AI isn’t just “tech” anymore—it’s showing up across sectors (and portfolios) in sneaky ways. ### **Risks in 2026 and How to Protect Your Portfolio** This episode is the “seatbelt” conversation: corrections happen, bear markets happen, and sometimes they start in one corner before spreading. The big message: don’t try to time fear—prepare for it. **Key takeaways** - Know the difference: - **Correction:** down 10%+ - **Bear market:** down 20%+ - **Crisis:** deeper, longer, mentally exhausting - AI risk isn’t just valuation—it’s **massive infrastructure spending** and complex “spider web” partnerships that get hard to track. - Tariffs and consumer pressure can hit: - Consumer discretionary/cyclicals - Industrials and transportation (slowdown risk) - “Protecting” doesn’t mean hiding in cash—it’s about knowing your risk exposure and having rules. **What “protection” looks like** - Clear **asset/sector/stock allocation** (and what those choices imply in a bad year) - Written **buy rules** and **sell rules** - Conviction you can actually stick with when volatility hits ### More tomorrow. * * * _More By This Author:_ Dividend Traps, Yield Chasing & Safety Metrics Selling Starbucks & More Trades - November Dividend Income Report The 6 Safest Stocks To Put On Your Buy List For 2026 ## 相關資訊與研究 - [Bear markets stir, then pounce.
