The Canadian Money Roadmap

Your investing strategy is late to the party

Evan Neufeld, CFP® Episode 169

In this episode of the Canadian Money Roadmap, we explore why chasing last year’s top-performing stocks or sectors can leave your investment strategy “late to the party.” Evan breaks down the pitfalls of following market hype—like AI, tech chips, utilities, and even nuclear power—and explains how much of the expected growth is already priced in by the time most investors notice.

Learn why diversification, humility, and keeping costs low are the real keys to long-term investing success. Plus, hear research on why only a tiny fraction of stocks drive most market gains, and why trying to pick the next big winner is a losing game for most.
