The question of “what’s next?” is impossible to answer, perhaps even for the countries that launched the attacks. But in- vestors will have no choice but to face “What now?” Here are five things to know this week: Assessing change: The first re- action will be in the oil markets. With Iran out, OPEC+ agreed to increase oil production at a slightly faster pace, according to a statement released Sunday. Will this be enough to quell a supply crunch? Oil is already at a seven- month high, but analysts are skeptical barrels can be added by the group. “In our view, every OPEC+ producer is essentially maxed out with the sole excep- tion of Saudi Arabia,” wrote Heli- ma Croft, global head of com- modity strategy at RBC Capital Markets. “Hence the barrel im- pact of any headline OPEC+ in- crease … will be limited by the lack of actual production abili- ties.” There is also the question of when barrels can actually move in the region with the Strait of Hormuz – a key channel for ship- ping crude and other goods – ef- fectively shut down. It’s against this backdrop that we will get re- sults from Canada’s most valua- ble energy producer, Canadian Natural Resources. The crude producer reports Thursday morning after its stock hit a fresh record high last week. Striking back: CrowdStrike re- ports Tuesday after the bell at a time when its peers have been swept up in the AI-related sell- off. Shares of the cybersecurity software company are down nearly 35 per cent from their November peak. AI updates have been disrupting whole industries with every new product release. On Feb. 20, Anthropic revealed “Claude Code Security” which scans software code for vulnera- bility and suggests patches. In- vestors don’t expect this to be a near-term threat to CrowdStrike – sales are expected to grow 22 per cent. AI also presents new cy- bersecurity risks that the selloff is completely ignoring, argues Wed- bush analyst Dan Ives. “AI repre- sents the biggest total address- able market opportunity to the cybersecurity space in its histo- ry,” he wrote in a preview note. “We believe these stocks selling off is all on the ‘AI Ghost Trade’ fears … but it will prove to be the wrong reaction in the long-term.” One quarter at a time: Algon- quin Power is slowly working its way back into investor’s hearts after a series of dramatic mis- steps over the past couple of years. The utility cut the dividend twice in the past three years and sold renewable assets to become more of a pure-play regulated utility. With new management in place, investors will look for signs of stabilization. “I think investors are starting to creep back into the name,” Rebecca Teltscher, portfo- lio manager with Newhaven As- set Management, said on my podcast. She named it as one of her top ideas right now. “I would never own a stock just for this [takeout potential], but I think this could be a really great takeout candidate,” she added. Bullseye: Target reports Tues- day morning before the opening bell and has been quietly outper- forming going into the print. The big box retailer is up 17 per cent so far in 2026 versus the S&P 500, which was flat over that time. No doubt it has been a beneficiary of the rotation out of expensive stocks into value. Analysts expect that sales slumped 2.5 per cent, which would be a slight improve- ment from the 2.7 per cent drop in the previous quarter. The stock has been rallying on hopes the embattled retailer may finally be finding its footing just as tax re- funds hit American consumers’ pocketbooks. That may be too optimistic, warned Bank of America in a note last week re- suming coverage of the stock at the equivalent of a sell rating. “The sales outlook remains clou- dy due to limited green shoots in most discretionary categories,” wrote Bank of America analyst Christopher Nardone. “On mar- gins, a potential acceleration in investments on muted comps will likely limit a swift EPS recov- ery.” He prefers Costco, which re- ports Thursday after the close, and is also outperforming so far this year. “We think Costco is well positioned to remain a leader in this K-shaped economy given its strong appeal with higher-in- come consumers along with in- dustry-leading pricing that at- tracts a more value-conscious shopper,” he said, referring to the term that describes one segment doing well, while another one struggles. Stable: On Friday, the U.S. is expected to show it added 60,000 new jobs in February, which would be a deceleration from the previous month’s 130,000 new jobs. The data have become ex- tremely volatile, prone to revi- sions. But even growth of 60,000 would show trends are stabiliz- ing. Citi’s economists are warning that might not be the case of the rest of the year. “We continue to suspect this stability is more a re- sult of familiar seasonal patterns than a true improvement in de- mand for workers,” Citi econo- mist Veronica Clark wrote in a preview note to clients. “A repeat of seasonal patterns would imply the unemployment rate reaching 4.7 per cent this year, which we expect to lead to 75 basis points in rate cuts from the Fed.” Special to The Globe and Mail What’s next for investors after attack on Iran AMBER KANWAR R ecent decisions to discon- tinue the production of fro- zen juice concentrate have made me nostalgic for sipping reconstituted lemonade on hot summer days. But investors are free to con- tinue to indulge in the Pink Lem- onade portfolio which is still running strong. The portfolio favours Cana- dian value stocks on the upswing and it generated average annual gains of 17.9 per cent over the 26 years through to the end of Janu- ary, 2026. In comparison, the Canadian stock market, as repre- sented by the S&P/TSX Compos- ite Index, climbed at an average annual rate of 8.1 per cent over the same period. (The returns herein are based on backtests using monthly data from Bloomberg. They include dividend reinvestment but not fund fees, taxes, commissions or other trading costs. The portfo- lios are equally weighted and re- balanced monthly, unless other- wise noted.) The portfolio picks its stocks by starting with the largest 300 on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) by market capitalization. It then proceeds to narrow in on the 20 with the lowest price-to- earnings ratios (P/E) and then buys the 10 with the highest returns over the prior six months. While the portfolio’s long- term returns have been excep- tional, it’s fun to also try new rec- ipes and variations. Today, the focus is on expanding the portfolio from 10 to 20, or 30, stocks. More precisely, the 20- and 30- stock portfolios both begin, like the original portfolio, with the largest 300 stocks on the TSX. The 20-stock portfolio then looks for the 40 stocks with the lowest P/Es before buying the 20 with the highest returns over the pri- or six months. The 30-stock port- folio seeks the 60 stocks with the lowest P/Es and then buys the 30 with the highest returns over the prior six months. The 20- and 30-stock portfo- lios gained an annual average of 18.8 per cent and 17.4 per cent respectively over the 26 years to the end of January, 2026. As ex- pected, both of the portfolios were slightly less volatile than the original thanks to their addi- tional holdings, which provide more diversification. You can examine the return history of all three portfolios, along with the market index, in the accompanying graph. The long-term gains are grand but the lemonade portfolios didn’t always win. They man- aged to avoid the market down- turn of 43 per cent after the in- ternet bubble burst in the early 2000s but the portfolios lagged in many of the other crashes of the past quarter century. Most dramatically, the portfo- lios were hard hit by the finan- cial crisis of 2008-2009 when the market index fell 43 per cent from its former highs to its lows in early 2009. The 10-, 20-, and 30-stock portfolios plunged by 45, 54, and 56 per cent respec- tively from their former highs during the period. Despite the dire declines, all of the portfolios recovered faster than the market and hit new highs in 2009 or early 2010. The market index managed to erase its losses by early 2011. The portfolios also trailed the market in the sudden pandemic- related crash of 2020 that saw the index fall 22 per cent. The 10-, 20-, and 30-stock portfolios dropped 40, 33, and 32 per cent respectively from their prior highs to their lows in March,

The Pink Lemonade portfolio requires a bit of effort to main- tain. But investors who were re- laxed and rebalanced it annually rather than monthly still fared well with average annual gains of 14.4 per cent over the 26 years to the end of January, 2026. It is important to remember that the Pink Lemonade portfo- lio isn’t without risk and it will sour from time to time in the fu- ture. But, with a little luck, it’ll continue to offer sweet returns over the long term. It might even allow investors to break free of the winter freezer and fly off to enjoy fresh juice in tropical climes.

Here is some reaction from investors, traders and analysts: EDWARD MEIR, ANALYST AT MAREX “I think you’re going to see a knee jerk spike up in most com- modity markets, including gold and oil. This will be a natural response to the outbreak of hostilities, which was rather un- expected in terms of scale and scope.” “I think we could open up by about $200/ounce on gold, but then drift lower over the course of the day. The markets are rather dispassionate when it comes to military conflicts; the only thing investors are ultimately focused on is whether the oil flows will be interrupted so once the initial spike is over, the initial rally tends to fade.” HUGO PASCAL, PRECIOUS METALS TRADER AT INPROVED “With traditional exchanges closed, tokenized gold is cur- rently trading at a premium, signalling a bullish ‘flight to safety’ ahead of the week’s open. Our digital proxies are showing a strong weekend bid.” “PAX Gold (PAXG) is currently leading the charge at $5,344/oz (+2.2 per cent since Friday), while Tether Gold (XAUt) has climbed to $5,292/oz (+1.2 per cent).” However, “that weekend proxy premiums often overstate the initial gap but accurately reflect the direction.” TIM WATERER, CHIEF MARKET ANALYST AT KCM TRADE “Gold is likely to be in higher demand than usual when mar- kets open on Monday. Given the risks regarding how long the conflict may last, which other nations could be dragged in, and inflation fears, gold is expected to assume its mantle as the safe haven asset of choice.” “Stock markets and other risk assets will probably be sold off and investors will be looking for the best place to park their funds, and gold will likely be atop that list.” FAWAD RAZAQZADA, MARKET ANALYST AT CITY INDEX AND FOREX.COM “There will be extra haven demand for gold which could see prices rise to around $5,500 again, and possibly a new record high above January’s peak of around $5,600.” “However, gold’s gains beyond that level could be capped by a potential rebound in the U.S. dollar, especially if crude oil stays sharply higher.” REUTERS Investors seek harbour in gold as war erupts ANMOL CHOUBEY ANUSHREE ASHISH MUKHERJEE
