In this episode of the Canadian Investor Podcast, we go over General Mills' Q4 results. Despite being a consumer staple company with brands like Cheerios, Betty Crocker, and Häagen-Dazs, the company is facing some challenges due to consumers opting for cheaper alternatives.

Next, we turn our attention to Alimentation Couche-Tard. Reporting its second consecutive quarter of soft earnings, Couche-Tard saw revenue beat expectations but profits were below what bay street was expecting. We'll explore the factors contributing to their 32% year-over-year decline in earnings, including challenges in fuel margins and consumer behavior shifts in Canada.

We also answer some listeners' questions about investing when markets are at all time highs, the best methods for currency conversion, and alternative fixed income investments.

Tickers of Stocks & ETF discussed: ATD.TO, GIS, XAW.TO, ITOT, DLR.TO, DLR-U.TO, HSAV.TO, CASH.TO, ZMMK.TO
