As you prepare your portfolio for the end of summer and the end of the recession, where should you be investing to profit from economic recovery?

Certainly in the Canadian stock market, says Gavin Graham, director of investments at BMO Asset Management. He believes the commodity-based Canadian economy will benefit from rising standards of living for the Asian middle class, particularly in China and India. He's also a great fan of Canada’s financial system, which has successfully weathered the financial crisis.

Mr. Graham will be answering our readers' investing strategy questions online at noon (ET) on Monday, August 24th. You can get a jump on the queue by submitting your question here.

Mr. Graham joined Guardian Group of Funds as chief investment officer in 1999, and the company became a subsidiary of BMO in 2001. Prior to that, he managed investments in San Francisco and Hong Kong, and served as chief investment officer for Citibank Global Asset Management (Asia). He began his career in Britain in 1979 with Baring Brothers Ltd.
