End of a recession. History is that the market tends to bottom well in advance of the end of a recession. Once we end the bear market, market's growth is disproportionately high, so that means strong. If you want to read about what markets do once a bear market has ended and we move into a new bull market, go to the goodreid.com Gauge under Insights. People will be surprised that the market doesn't flatline, it tends to have very sharp advances, and this is great for the future.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Glimmers of Hope for Investors in the New Year. Housing prices are cheaper: As far as Christmas gifts go, this one might be a bit of a stretch, but there has been a lot of talk about the affordability of houses, and how young people these days may never be able to afford one. Rising mortgage rates do not help this scenario in any way. But house prices are slowly — but surely — starting to tick down. A recent poll notes that house prices are expected to show a peak-to-trough drop of more than 17 per cent. We are not sure how long this price weakness will last, or how low prices will go, but it is certainly nice not to read about any tiny shacks selling for $2 million in bidding wars. Homebuyers this season can, at least, breathe a sigh of relief that the house they want is not likely to get a bunch of over-the-top, house-unseen bids. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

COMMENT

If yields spike in response to CPI tomorrow, then bank stocks will go down and stay down. And maybe the tech and industrial rallies can continue.

COMMENT

according to analyst Larry Williams Every rally between Sept. 2021 and April 2022 lasted 24 days; this also happened in the second half of 2022. The current rally should continue to Feb. 3 or even longer.

COMMENT

We will likely see a bounce this month after December's sell-off. Negatives are already priced into the market. Inflation will continue, but slow and is priced into markets. Short-term pain for long-term gain, meaning 2022's bad year will allow a better 6-7% annual market gains going forward and maybe better in years to come.

gold Go with senior gold producers among ETFs because of lower volatility than junior producers. Prefers low-debt stocks than actual bullion.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Inflation Effect on Real Estate: For real estate assets, if inflation stays within an expected range, rental income and property values rise with inflation. On a positive note, higher than expected inflation leads to high demand for real estate, and vice versa when deflation occurs (opposite of inflation). Studies and data have shown that not all inflation is bad, and economic mechanisms are in place to curb extremes. Business and economic cycles are a part of reality and investors should be aware of how different assets could be impacted. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

COMMENT

The main market driver is hope for some kind of a Fed pivot based on a possible improving inflation picture and also a hope for a soft landing. However inflation is being quite stubborn and this includes a strong jobs market so he feels a little doubtful of a continuing rally in equities. His advice is to remain calm, be conservative and consider alternative strategies such as those in the commodities trading space like trend and systematical macro strategies. Before 2022 bonds and stocks complimented each other and acted inversely. But in 2022 that wasn't the case - there was higher volatility in both. Concentrate on building an all terrain type of portfolio.

BUY

The question was on his suggestion for a Canadian High Dividend ETF. You need to see a metric that looks at quality companies and not just companies with high dividends due to their share price falling. The companies in this type of ETF should have strong underlying financials and strong balance sheets. One suggestion is HXH which has a corporate set-up. The dividend is re-invested, not paid out. It includes REIT's. It is diversified and limits the percentage holdings of individual stocks.. Another suggestion is XDIV, a Canadian quality ETF. It is more heavily weighted to financials (50%) and doesn't have REIT's It also screens for negative price momentum. You could buy both.

PARTIAL BUY

The question was on a recommendation for a metals and mining ETF. Large global mining companies are good in the secular sense but not good in the cyclical sense. If banks continue to squash inflation this will diminish growth. Best approach is to have a core holding, buy small amounts and re-balance.

COMMENT

Believes investors should focus on high quality/profitable companies regardless of macro-economic conditions. Markets will always have noise that investors need to ignore. Consumers facing headwinds with higher interest rates and inflation. Companies will start to invest more with prices falling during economic recession. Re-shoring of supply chain, and automation will increase business investment. Realization that offshore supply chain is problematic/fragile given global tensions.

COMMENT

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Inflation Impact on Equities. If inflation stays within the expected cyclical range, there is little effect on stocks as the market prices in expectations fairly quickly and companies can raise prices in-line with inflation to some degree. Unexpectedly high inflation might make central banks take action to slow down the economy by raising interest rates, which is what affects valuations of high-growth and highly leveraged companies. High inflation benefits those companies that can pass on inflation, which generally tend to be of consumer staples, financial and industrial sectors.

COMMENT

S&P 500 chart. He's very constructive and bullish. Underneath the surface, a lot of charts are getting quite constructive. Main thing is when you look at the US indices, the mega-caps are really dragging the index down. So while the goliaths are dragging down the index, a lot of other stocks are starting to turn up and improve. Financials, industrials, and materials are really seeing signs of improvement, and this is consistent with a new 4-year cyclical bull market trying to take hold.

COMMENT

Energy. Right now, energy is very late cycle and potentially starting a new cycle. The chart shows that the TSX Energy Index has really gone sideways over the last year. His view is that reward/risk ratio is not great, and so it's likely to become a market performer or underperformer over the next 2 years. You have to look at valuation, relative performance, and where we are in the market cycle. We're starting a new cycle. Energy functions really well at the end of a cycle, because that's a time of high demand when everything's running on all cylinders. Right now, the economy has an empty tank, so demand for energy will be down. Had a good run, now consolidating and that's his concern, it's dead money. So he's cautious.
