Dear Clients,

On August 6, 2026, I joined BNN Bloomberg to discuss July’s market volatility, why we believe the long-term AI investment thesis remains intact despite the recent correction, and several investment opportunities currently on our radar.

During the program, I also had the opportunity to interview Paul Goddard, President & CEO of Pizza Pizza, on the company’s Q2 earnings, consumer spending trends, and competitive dynamics within the restaurant industry. We also took a number of questions from viewers on markets, portfolio positioning, and the outlook ahead.

If you missed the segments, you can watch them below:

Whether discussing AI, market volatility, or individual investment opportunities, our focus remains the same: looking beyond short-term headlines and identifying quality businesses with durable long-term growth potential.

If you’d like to discuss any of these themes or how they may impact your portfolio, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Sincerely,

Nadeem Kassam, CFA, MBA
