Q: While I could buy a number of international or emerging market ETFs, are there any large cap Canadian stocks that would provide some degree of exposure?

Asked by Jim on November 11, 2025

5i Research Answer:

SHOP, ATD, and BNS are some names with more of a global exposure but we are not sure we would own them for the purpose of international diversification. Often times, just because a company has international revenues does not mean that the shares move in a proportionate manner to that other geogrpahies markets or economy.
