The company is about to go public.
The big banks make up 24.33% of the TSX; metals and mining 17%, oil/gas 14.5%, software 7.14%, insurance 7%. The budget offers slightly more headwinds than benefits, such as more competition for the banks, but more of the beneficiaries will be in the private sector, not public. Metals: this sector will grow, but mining is cyclical. Also, critical minerals mining is very small in Canada. So supporting this sector doesn't benefit the TSX much overall. Energy boils down to commodity prices, so the budget can't control that. The outlook for oil/gas is negative. It doesn't matter if we build more pipelines, though getting oil and gas to foreign markets will increase Canadian market share. Overall, the best play is the utilities sector and he recommends the XUT ETF.
It is a Michigan utility company.Its growth of 7 to 8% is locked in through regulation which means it can't grow much faster, or slower either. The next best competitor to utilities is treasury bonds but as yields go down people move money back to utilities. Dividend is 3%
