This year, IG Wealth Management celebrates 100 years of helping Canadians invest through everything markets can deliver. Philip Petursson, Chief Investment Strategist at IG Wealth Management, takes us through a century of market history; from the 1929 crash to the dot-com boom, the 2008 crisis and pandemic shock.

Philip explains why the core building blocks of investing haven't fundamentally changed and shares the real lesson from a century of markets: success isn't about predicting the future perfectly, it's about preparing for it consistently.
