Where you invest matters — but how you divide your investments matters too.

That's where asset allocation comes in.

Asset allocation is how you spread your portfolio across different types of investments, such as:

📈 Equities — potential for long-term growth
💵 Fixed income — income and stability
💰 Cash — liquidity and short-term needs

The right mix depends on factors like your goals, timeline and tolerance for risk.

There isn't one perfect allocation for everyone.

The goal is to build a portfolio that makes sense for you — and your financial plan. You don't need to figure it out alone, contact Josh Armstrong at ModernInvesting.ca and let's build a plan for you.

The final quarter of 2026 is almost here.

Before the year gets away from you, take a few minutes to check in with your financial plan.

Ask yourself:

1️⃣ Have my goals changed?

2️⃣ Has my financial situation changed?

3️⃣ Does my investment strategy still make sense for where I'm going?

Your financial plan shouldn't be something you look at once a year and forget about.

Life changes. Markets change. Your strategy may need to change too.

A strong financial plan grows with you, contact us if you need help with your goals https://moderninvesting.ca/reach-us

There may be some encouraging news in Canada's job market.

Employment increased by 75,000 jobs in July, while Canada's unemployment rate edged down to 6.4% (Canada: July Job Gains Offer Relief, With Ground Still to Cover, Desjardins).

It's a positive sign — but one month doesn't tell the whole story.

For investors, employment is one of the economic indicators worth watching because a stronger labour market can influence consumer spending, business activity and the broader economy.

The takeaway? Don't focus on one number. Look at the bigger picture.

Back-to-school season isn't just about new backpacks and school supplies. It's also a great opportunity to teach kids how money works.

Three simple lessons to start with:

💰 Needs vs. wants — Not everything we want needs to become a purchase.

🎯 Saving for a goal — Help them choose something they want and work toward it.

📊 Making choices — A budget isn't about saying “no” to everything. It's about deciding what's most important.

Financial literacy starts long before someone's first paycheque.

What was the best money lesson you learned growing up?

Canada and the U.S. are heading into this month with trade tensions still front and centre.

The U.S. recently imposed new 50% tariffs on certain Canadian imports, while Canada has announced retaliatory tariffs on more than 700 U.S. products beginning September 8 ("Canada announces $20bn retaliatory tariffs as US trade war escalates", Financial Times).

For investors, the bigger question isn't simply “What happens next?”

It's how businesses, supply chains and markets respond to a changing trade environment.

Periods of uncertainty are a good reminder of why diversification and a long-term investment strategy matter.

The headlines will change. Your financial goals shouldn't have to. Worried they might? Book a call with Josh Armstrong to discuss your financial plan at https://moderninvesting.ca/reach-us , or email us at [email protected]

Are you still not financially investing in your future as yet? Here are three reasons to!

1. Compound interest helps your investment grow at an accelerated rate.

Did you read Canada's economic plan for 2026? I did and here are two takeaway's that stood out to me.
1. Canada’s economy is advancing its plan to diversify markets, build infrastructure, and strengthen domestic industries to support long-term growth.
2. It introduces major new initiatives including a $25 billion Canada Strong Fund to support strategic investments.

Budget Canada released the plan on April 28th, 2026, Building Canada strong for all. Read the PDF here today:https://budget.canada.ca/update-miseajour/2026/report-rapport/pdf/update-miseajour2026-eng.pdf

What is one thing you'd like the government to work on for the Canadian economy?
