Artificial intelligence (AI) is now everywhere. It’s in our web browsers, deliveries, our phones, and even our healthcare systems. Yet it’s the latter that could be one of the best opportunities out there for the next AI winner. And it could be a Canadian company. So today, let’s look at why healthcare stocks invested in…
If you’re aiming to turn a $20,000 investment into a source of steady monthly income, dividend-paying stocks can be a solid option. My strategy is to focus on fundamentally strong companies that distribute reliable dividends each month and have high but sustainable yields.

Airline stocks have been through a lot over the last several years, and Air Canada (TSX:AC) is no exception.

Lundin Gold (TSX:LUG) stock rose 34% last month on the heels of record second-quarter earnings. The 34% jump in a month is a continuation of its two-year-long rally. The stock price doubled in 2024 and jumped 193% so far in 2025. There seems to be no slowing down. Is it an industry-wide trend due to…
