2:17 – 19:19 – A +30% Return Without Lifting a Finger – That’s how much you would have made listening to John Johnston, Chief Strategist of Davis Rea at the Money Talks conference in 2013 and switched a portion of your portfolio to $US denominated assets. In this interview Michael ask John Johnston what’s next, with what is still one of the best money-making predictions of the last decade in the currency world, as well as some of the secrets behind his index beating Davis Rea Equity Fund, and the even more remarkable returns on his Fixed Income Fund.
21:09 – 23:22 – Mike’s Shocking Stat: Holy smokes, the devastating numbers of getting on the wrong side of a technological revolution illustrated by the impact of UBER on traditional taxi service. In some places the traditional taxi business has shrunk over 90%, City council’s selling taxi medalions are not happy!

31:59 – 35:45 Victor Adair’s Live From The Trading Desk. Anticipated risks from the Comey testimony, the UK election and the ECB meeting all on Thursday were not a “big worry” and the major US stock market indices rallied to New All Time Highs Friday while volatility across markets dropped to new lows. Plus Victor has done a complete 180 and gone long the US Dollar!
36:02 – 37:40 – Mike’s Goofy gives an dramatic example of the NY Times publishing “Fake News” as according to FBI Director James Comey
That’s what you would have earned if you had listened to Dr. John Johnston on MoneyTalks and switched a portion of your portfolio to $US denominated assets in early 2013. Heck, if you were an active investor and bought an inverse $CDN ETF like DLR a $10,000 investment would have been worth $14,340 in January of 2016, and even today it would still be worth $13,400.
At the 2013 World Outlook Financial Conference, with the loonie trading over $1.00 US, John accurately forecast that the Canadian Dollar would decline to the 70 cent level. Still one of the best money-making predictions of the last decade.
In this interview Michael ask John Johnston what’s next in the currency world, as well as some of the secrets behind his index beating Davis Rea Equity Fund, and the even more remarkable returns on his Fixed Income Fund. The first 2 minutes of this segment begins with Mike’s Quote of the week.
Michael’s Editorial: We are in a long term trend, an anti-establishment movement where increasingly in so many new areas things are taken to extremes. You can see it in the demand that there should be absolutely no discussion, no questions allowed on global warming, pipelines or for that matter the whole progressive adgenda. The assault on free-speech is increasing, and it will increase until society in general is dramatically changed. Michael issues another warning, that they’re coming after your money too.

Voters Love Hearing It’s Going To Be Free

The compelling reason that politicians increasingly offer voters new “free” stuff each election cycle is because it works. Whether it was in Britains recent election, BC’s or Ontario’s every election cycle something else is offered to the public “free”. If this keeps up soon there won’t be anything left to make free and our future generations will just have to buckle down and try and pay for all our frivolity.
