There has been a surge of media attention around prediction markets, but are they actually appropriate for investors and investment platforms? According to Justwealth CIO James Gauthier, MBA, CFA, Portfolio Managers have a fiduciary duty to act in their clients' best interests. In his view, prediction markets run counter to that obligation and should in no way be mixed with other investments. The bottom line, literally, is that we don't advise our clients to gamble with their investments. Hear more from James on this topic in this clip.

Justwealth 2Q 2026 Market Commentary:

Many of the concerns on the minds of investors went unresolved in the second quarter: there is still conflict in Iran; Canada and the U.S. continue to spar over trade policies; and inflation remains uncomfortably high. None of the above seemed to matter as markets delivered exceptionally strong results, led by the S&P 500 which gained 17.12% for the quarter. International markets also had a double-digit increase, while Canadian stocks rose close to 7%. Even bonds managed a 2% gain with inflation concerns ramping up.

Performance for the quarter highlights (again!) the disconnect that can happen between the stories weighing on investors’ minds (doom and gloom) and how markets will react (euphoria). Ultimately, money invested in Justwealth portfolios is put into stocks and bonds, most of which are directly related to the profitability of corporations. As long as companies in aggregate continue to grow their profits, and pay interest on their debt, the value of investments should go up. Ongoing resiliency of corporations is far more important than most other economic or political problems which tend to be fleeting and then quickly forgotten.

In investing, staying the course is often the wisest thing you can do. But investor inertia (the tendency to leave an expensive arrangement unquestioned), year after year, can quietly cost tens of thousands of dollars. Robin Powell, the UK based editor of The Evidence-Based Investor and consultant to investors, planners & advisors, writes about how market drops make headlines, but "fee drag" doesn’t.

Justwealth April 2026 Market Commentary:

After a challenging month for the equity markets in March, investors changed direction in April sending markets higher, and in some cases back to all-time highs. Robust earnings growth and a resurgence in the popularity of AI-related stocks pushed the S&P 500 up 7.77%, international stocks rose 4.80%, and Canadian equities advanced by 3.81%. Yields have been creeping higher due to anticipation of higher inflation caused by the war in Iran, but domestic bonds still managed to squeeze out a positive gain rising by 0.12%.

There has been some hope of an end to the conflict in Iran, but nothing has officially been settled. The uncertainty regarding the supply of oil has kept the price elevated for Brent Crude (primarily used in Europe and Asia) and West Texas Intermediate (primarily used in North America). The impact of higher oil prices shows up quickly in gasoline and jet fuel prices, but over time, oil is a production input in a wider range of industries including construction, agriculture and manufacturing that includes any plastic components. The longer the conflict lasts, the more likely it will have serious inflationary impacts on a global scale at a time when it is already at a worrisome level.

Maintaining price stability is the responsibility of central banks. In May, Kevin Warsh will be taking over as the Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve. In addition to having to react to the large inflationary threat at hand, he must endure the pressure being applied by President Trump who has been clamouring for interest rate cuts since his return to office. Interest rate cuts would theoretically increase inflation – a very conflicting directive. It will be interesting to see how Mr. Warsh will respond. Stay tuned!
