As of Jun 19, 2026. Market Open.
Really likes financials for the second half of the year. From July-September, returns are anemic compared to the market. But at the end of the year, financials have good outperformance. Looks fantastic, strong dividend. Likely to take out highs of 2021 over the course of this cycle. Upside until late 2025 or early 2026.
If you are coming into this as a new investment, he would prefer Power Financial (PWF-T) because you have investors group as well as Great West Life (GWO-T). While not as exciting, it would be a good hedge in that it would stand to benefit from a rising interest rate environment. However, IGM is at a low right now, so doesn’t think you will be hurt by continuing to own it.
