The Fed’s Big Move — And Brianne Gardner’s Take on 10 Key Stocks | In the Money with Amber Kanwar

The final Fed decision of 2025 may set the tone for the entire 2026 market — and today on In the Money with Amber Kanwar, portfolio manager Brianne Gardner joins Amber to break down what really matters for investors right now. From earnings strength to sector rotation to how much weight you should put on Powell’s language ahead of a potential Fed chair transition, Brianne lays out her top-down roadmap for the year ahead.

She also walks through how she’s positioning client portfolios — why the U.S. still earns the biggest weighting, how her team uses downside-capture targets to protect wealth, and why falling rates could unleash a flood of sidelined cash into equities in 2026.

Then it’s time for a busy mailbag, where Brianne weighs in on NFI Group (NFI.TO), Boston Scientific (BSX), Fairfax Financial (FFH.TO), Rogers (RCI.B.TO), EQB (EQB.TO), Netflix (NFLX) and Oracle (ORCL) — breaking down which names she’s avoiding, which ones she’s actively vetting, and where she sees undervalued stability versus pure momentum risk.

In Pro Picks, Brianne reveals a theme she didn’t even set out to create — market darlings that have pulled back and now offer compelling entry points. She starts with Capital Power (CPX.TO), calling the recent weakness a rare chance to buy a major Canadian power producer at an attractive valuation as it upgrades its fleet and extends asset life. Next is TMX Group (X.TO), a long-term winner that’s dipped on slower IPO activity but continues to deliver double-digit growth in its expanding data and analytics business. And finally, she makes the case for Meta (META), where she used the latest pullback to add to her position, citing strength in core advertising, the monetization of Reels, and meaningful AI-driven engagement tailwinds.
