U.S. Vs. Canada: Where Should Investors Turn Now?

You’ve heard the term “in the money” when it comes to options — but what will it take for your entire portfolio to stay there in 2025?

 

In this episode of the MoneyShow MoneyMasters Podcast, we’re joined by Amber Kanwar, host of In the Money with Amber Kanwar and one of Canada’s most respected financial voices. With 15 years of experience covering Canadian and U.S. markets, Amber shares her frontline perspective on the changing investment landscape — and why investors can’t afford to ignore what’s happening north of the border.

 

From shifting sands under Canadian and U.S. markets to the surprising strength of select energy and gold stocks, Amber unpacks the common blind spots in investor thinking — and how tariffs, commodities, and earnings uncertainty are rewriting the rules of engagement.

 

She also discusses the evolution of financial journalism, why longform podcasts are transforming investor education, and how she gets billion-dollar fund managers to reveal what really matters.

 

Whether you’re trading tech stocks, buying dips, or wondering what comes next for commodities, this conversation is filled with sharp insights — and real talk about what moves markets.
