### Essential Insights You’ll Discover:
– We start off with two traditional financial stocks: **Royal Bank (RY.TO) (RY)** and **Brookfield Corporation (BN.TO) (BN)**. Both belong to the same sector but function under different business models. What makes them attractive as long-term investments?
– How does National Bank (NA.TO), Mike’s personal favorite, compare? Is it presenting a more favorable entry point in comparison to RY and BN?
– Delve into the potential risks associated with **Royal Bank** and **Brookfield Corp.**
– **Alimentation Couche-Tard (ATD.TO)** has consistently been a favorite in the market. Why is it still regarded as a stock to hold indefinitely, despite recent mixed performance?
– Is the market’s current uncertainty regarding Couche-Tard indicative of significant risks, or could this represent a unique buying opportunity?
– **Couche-Tard** is the sole stock discussed that isn’t listed on U.S. exchanges; Americans can acquire it via OTC (pink sheets)—but is it worth pursuing?
– Coming up next is **Canadian National Railway (CNR.TO) (CNI)**. Railways are here to stay—so what makes CNR a stock for the long haul?
– We analyze the current pricing of **CNR** in relation to yield and price-to-earnings ratios. What risks should investors consider?
– Lastly, discover the ultimate example of a “buy and forget” stock: **Fortis (FTS.TO) (FTS)**—a powerhouse in regulated utilities. Why does it remain so reliable?
– Is there a concern that **Fortis** could become “too mundane,” potentially hindering its growth over time?
