Telus Slashes Its Dividend, Couche-Tard Goes Shopping, and More Big Tech Earnings

from The Canadian Investor · host Braden Dennis & Simon Belanger

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, we break down a packed week of earnings and market news, starting with Goodfood filing for bankruptcy protection and what went wrong for the meal-kit business. We then look at Alimentation Couche-Tard’s proposed acquisition of Poland’s Zabka Group, a deal that would be the largest in Couche-Tard’s history and significantly expand its presence in Europe. From there, we discuss Telus cutting its dividend by 55%, why the new CEO appears to be resetting expectations, and what the guidance cut says about the pressure facing Canadian telecoms. We also cover SpaceX’s first public earnings report, Amazon’s strong quarter and rising AI capex, Imperial Oil’s cash flow surge, Canada Goose’s continued struggles, and 5N Plus after its latest earnings release.
