We open on the quantum bubble—why euphoric pricing, SPAC lineage, tiny revenues, and heavy short interest make this corner of the market feel like a digital casino. Then we break down shorting in plain English (and why timing risk blows up otherwise “correct” theses). Simon pivots to gold’s surge, drawing parallels to the post-1971 fiat shift, sticky core inflation, and chronic deficits—plus what the Bank of Canada’s changing language might be signaling. We wrap with how gold and Bitcoin can coexist in a portfolio and a quick life update from the hosts. Not investment advice.

Why the TSX Is Crushing the S&P 500 This Year
In this episode of the Canadian Investor podcast, Simon and Dan take a look back at how markets have performed so far this year from the S&P 500’s strong double-digit gains to gold’s massive rally and the surprising outperformance of the TSX. They break down what’s been driving returns in both Canada and the U.S., why certain sectors are leading, and how rare multi-year double-digit runs really are. The discussion then shifts to AMD’s landmark deal with OpenAI and what it signals about the AI arms race, before diving into Constellation Software’s latest conference call, leadership transition, and evolving view on capital deployment. The episode wraps up with a thoughtful conversation on economic moats how they’re built, how AI may erode them, and why management ultimately determines how durable they are.

Braden is Back to Discuss Constellationās Wild Week
Braden’s back with Simon and Dan for the quarterly mastermind discussion. In this episode we primarily talk about Constellation Software’s wild week: Mark Leonard’s abrupt exit for health reasons following a rare conference call with investors on AI. We weigh continuity vs. key-person risk, why the slower pace of big deals might be prudence (not decay), and whether AI fears are overblown for mission-critical vertical software.
