A Proud Day for Iran: WORLD CHAMPIONS! 🏆🏐

Today, a group of young Iranian athletes gave millions of Iranians around the world something to celebrate.

Iran’s U17 Volleyball Team are World Champions!

They defeated France 3–1 in the final in Doha, completing an unbeaten campaign and winning Iran’s first-ever U17 Volleyball World Championship title.

And what makes this even more special:

🏆 World Champions
🔥 Unbeaten throughout the tournament
⭐ Sina Hazrati — Tournament MVP & Best Opposite
🎯 Akam Ebrahimnezhad — Best Setter
💪 Monib Sheikh — Best Middle Blocker

But beyond the medals and statistics what makes this victory even more meaningful is the context. Iranian athletes continue to pursue excellence while their country faces significant economic pressure, international sanctions, and limitations on access to resources and global opportunities. Yet these young players stood on the world stage and competed, not just participated, and came home as World Champions. Their achievement is a powerful reminder that talent, discipline, teamwork and determination cannot easily be restricted by circumstances.
These young athletes have reminded us that great potential can come from anywhere and that hard work can take you to the highest level of the world.

To the players, coaches, families and everyone who supported them:

Congratulations! You made Iran proud. ❤️

And to all Iranians around the world: Today, let’s celebrate together.

تبریک به همه ایرانیان سراسر جهان ❤️🏆

🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canada–U.S. Trade Tensions: A Challenge, but Also an Opportunity

The latest escalation in Canada–U.S. trade relations is creating uncertainty for Canadian businesses and investors.

The U.S. has imposed a 50% tariff on roughly C$27.6 billion of Canadian goods, and Canada has announced matching measures on U.S. imports starting September 8.

So, what should we be watching?

Short term: Higher costs, pressure on some exporters, and potential volatility in the Canadian economy and markets.

Long term: This could accelerate something Canada has needed for years:

✔️ Diversification
✔️ Expanding trade beyond the U.S.
✔️ Investing in Canadian infrastructure and productivity
✔️ Strengthening domestic supply chains
✔️ Attracting global investment
✔️ Building new markets for Canadian businesses

My view: Canada is facing a difficult period, but difficult periods can also accelerate necessary change. Canada has natural resources, energy, talent, a highly educated workforce, strong institutions, and access to a large network of global markets.

The opportunity now is to turn trade uncertainty into economic resilience. 🇨🇦

📘Life/Financial Events That Change Your Financial Plan - Part 1

💡 Borrowing to invest can be a powerful wealth-building strategy, but is the interest you pay tax-deductible?

Before implementing a leveraged investment strategy, it’s important to understand:

✔️ When investment loan interest is tax-deductible?
✔️ Which types of investments may qualify?
✔️ How selling, transferring, or refinancing investments can affect interest deductibility?
✔️ Common situations that may cause you to lose the tax deduction?
✔️ Why your investment purpose matters just as much as the investment itself?

I’ve attached a brief guide that explains these concepts and highlights key tax considerations for investors.

If you’re considering borrowing to invest or already have an investment loan, I’d be happy to review your situation with you.
Feel free to schedule a meeting via [email protected], and let’s discuss how these rules may apply to your financial plan.

⚽ Halfway Through the FIFA World Cup 2026: The Real Winner Might Be the Economy

We’re now well into the FIFA World Cup 2026, and while fans are focused on the matches, another competition is unfolding behind the scenes: the race for economic growth.

Here are a few observations from an investment perspective:

📈 Consumer spending is surging:

• Hotels, restaurants, airlines, ride-sharing, retail, and entertainment businesses are benefiting from millions of traveling fans.
• Local businesses in host cities are experiencing one of their busiest periods in years.

🏨 Tourism has become an economic engine:

• More than 6.5 million international visitors are expected throughout the tournament.
• Visitor spending is projected to exceed US$6.5 billion.

💼 Employment and business activity:

• The tournament is expected to support more than 200,000 jobs, from hospitality and transportation to security, media, construction, and event management.

🏗️ The long-term investment story:

While the matches will end in July, investments in airports, transit systems, stadiums, and urban infrastructure will continue generating economic value for decades.

🌍 Global branding matters:

For Canada, the United States, and Mexico, hosting the tournament is also a marketing campaign worth billions, showcasing their cities to investors, tourists, entrepreneurs, and businesses worldwide.

📊 Looking Beyond the Scoreboard:

As investors, we often focus on earnings reports and interest rates, but major global events remind us that economic growth also comes from consumer confidence, infrastructure investment, tourism, and global capital flows.

Which sector do you think will benefit the most from the World Cup?

💡 What Investors Should Watch

• Hospitality & travel companies
• Airports and transportation
• Payment networks (Visa, Mastercard)
• Consumer discretionary spending
• Infrastructure and construction
• Media and advertising revenues

If you’re a business owner with excess cash sitting inside your corporation, the real risk isn’t volatility, it’s inaction.

⚠️ Left unmanaged, retained earnings lose value to inflation and tax drag.

With the right structure, that capital can become a tax-efficient engine supporting both your current flexibility and long-term retirement goals.

🧠 The key is integrating how you pay yourself, how you invest, and how your corporation fits into your overall wealth plan.

Friday. 7:00 PM.

The markets are closed. The screens are still on. And so am I.

It’s been one of those weeks where the background noise isn’t really “background” anymore; geopolitical tension, war, and volatility across oil and broader markets, all carrying real consequences.
You see it in the data, but you feel it even more in conversations with clients.

This is exactly when discipline matters most.

Volatile markets don’t just test portfolios, they test behavior. Sudden moves in energy, shifting correlations, and uncertainty around global supply chains require careful reassessment.
This isn’t about reacting to headlines; it’s about recalibrating risk, protecting downside, and staying aligned with long-term objectives.

Even after the closing bell, the work continues; reviewing positions, stress-testing portfolios, and preparing for what comes next.

Because in times like this, staying still is not a strategy.

If anything, this is when structured, disciplined decision-making creates the most value.

Back to work.

⚖️ Power does not grant permission: It demands responsibility.

Recent rhetoric around Iran has escalated in a way that should concern anyone who values stability and ethical leadership.
When language shifts toward dismantling infrastructure and applying pressure on a nation’s economic lifelines, we must ask: who truly bears the cost? This is not abstract strategy, it directly impacts millions of ordinary people.

🏙️ A nation is not its government:

Its bridges carry families, not policies.
Its power plants sustain hospitals, not ideologies.
Infrastructure is not a bargaining chip; it is the backbone of civilian life. When pressure targets these systems, it is not policymakers who suffer first; it is the people.

🌍 History is clear about one thing:

when power is exercised without restraint, consequences expand beyond intention. Economic disruption turns into humanitarian strain. Strategic pressure evolves into long-term resentment.
Instability, once triggered, does not remain contained within borders; it ripples across regions and generations.

🧭 True leadership, whether in geopolitics or business, is measured differently:

It is not about how quickly force can be applied, but about discipline, proportionality, and foresight.
The strongest actors are those who understand restraint, who recognize that credibility is built not through intimidation, but through consistency and respect for human impact.

As someone who was born and raised in Iran, I feel a responsibility to challenge this narrative.

🤝 If the objective is stability, the method must reflect it.
Because the world is watching and how power is exercised today will define the legitimacy of leadership tomorrow.
