Following the release of Q2 results from BMO and National Bank yesterday, Rob Wessel joined BNN Bloomberg to discuss the key takeaways from the quarter, including implications to the other banks.
Markets have shown remarkable resilience, bouncing back from the lows seen in early April. But beneath this recent resurgence, a key shift has emerged: significantly elevated volatility. While the broader market indices’ year-to-date returns suggest some sense of stability, the volatility seen last month was reminiscent of March 2020 and even the 2008 Global Financial Crisis (GFC) — periods marked by far steeper drawdowns.
The recent decline in crude oil prices has weighed on investor sentiment toward the oil and gas sector. Yet, beneath the surface, fundamentals remain resilient: global energy demand is holding up, producers are maintaining strong financial discipline, and supply constraints continue to support long-term pricing. For energy investors with a long-term view, the current market weakness may offer a compelling entry point — particularly in North…
The healthcare sector remains an industry of focus for investors looking for both resilience and long-term growth.

In today’s volatile market environment, investors focused on long-term growth face a key challenge: how to stay invested in equities while managing risks such as inflation, interest rate uncertainty, geopolitical events, and policy shifts.
Over the past 50+ years, U.S. equities have suffered numerous steep declines, from the inflation crisis of the early 1970’s to the current tariff turmoil of 2025. These drawdowns — ranging from moderate corrections to deep bear markets — highlight an interesting and fairly consistent pattern. When equities fall sharply, two asset classes – Bonds and Gold – perform particularly well.
For centuries, gold has played a key role in preserving wealth and providing financial stability. And while the Gold Standard[1] has long since been abandoned by countries around the world, gold can still play an important role in an investor’s portfolio. Modern portfolios often emphasize equities and bonds, but gold remains a distinct and uncorrelated asset that can offer security during times of uncertainty.
Rising geopolitical tensions and renewed fears of a tariff-driven trade war have injected fresh uncertainty and volatility into global markets. To help investors make sense of it all, we sat down on April 8th with prominent Wall Street strategist, Ed Yardeni, to ask five questions that are top of mind for investors.
