He models inputs such as monetary and fiscal policy, central bank positioning and inflation trends.

Dave also co-manages the TCI Premia Preferred Share Pool, which has been a leader in risk-adjusted returns amongst Canadian peers. The success of the fund has stemmed from opportunistic positioning based on the evolving preferred share landscape and interest rate environment.
