The latest missile strikes between Iran, US forces and their allies have pushed Brent crude to about $84.5 a barrel and put fresh focus on energy sector stocks.

It also shines a light on a corner of the market that often gets written off too quickly.

Bank of Nova Scotia stock has delivered a strong 125.2% total return over the past three years, while the intrinsic value estimate from the Excess Returns model and earnings based valuation checks both suggest the shares still trade at a discount. Over three years, Bank of Nova Scotia has returned 125.2%, which places extra focus on whether the current share price already reflects its fundamentals. Future loan growth and fee income can support the intrinsic value case, but long term credit...

Cross border trade friction between the US and Canada is back in focus after the Trump administration announced 50% tariffs on US$20b of Canadian electrical equipment and machinery imports from mid August. With no carve outs under the United States Mexico Canada Agreement and the risk of Canadian retaliation, some stocks tied to these supply chains could face higher costs, contract uncertainty and freight disruption. This article examines three stocks exposed to this news and explains how...

Topaz Energy stock closed at CA$31.55 on July 28, roughly flat over the past three months, yet the latest quarter gives long term holders more to think about than the daily quote suggests. The headline is simple: Q2 produced CA$111.2m of total revenue and CA$0.34 in basic earnings per share, alongside strong cash generation and a higher royalty production outlook. In the very near term the market is weighing a premium 33.7x P/E and a 4.31% yield that lacks full earnings and free cash flow...

First Capital Real Estate Investment Trust spent the past month drifting slightly lower, yet the unit price now sits around CA$23 with investors facing a very different story inside the latest earnings. The headline is pressure on profitability. Quarterly funds from operations, the core cash yardstick for a REIT, came in at about CA$59.5m, well below the prior two quarters, while net income dropped back toward more ordinary levels after a very large one off gain over the past year. The...

Canadian National Railway stock has put up a solid 50.2% return over the past five years, yet current checks suggest investors are now paying a premium to the company’s own Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) based intrinsic value while market multiples look roughly in line with peers. That mix leaves Canadian National Railway looking neither clearly cheap nor obviously stretched on first pass. A 50.2% gain over five years points to a company that has already rewarded patient shareholders, so fresh...

After a 117.2% total return over the past 5 years, Enbridge stock no longer looks like an obvious bargain. However, the valuation checks point to something closer to a middle ground than a clear premium story. Enbridge has delivered a 117.2% return over 5 years, which puts more pressure on today’s buyers to justify the price with future cash flow and income potential. The $4b Sunrise Expansion project in British Columbia can support long term earnings and cash flow. At the same time, the...

Gibson Energy stock closed at CA$32.11 today, capping a steady run over the past three months, while the latest earnings landed like a reality check on how much of that optimism comes from fundamentals rather than mood.
