  • Top 4 TSX Stocks to Buy Now: Canadian Apartment Properties REIT and goeasy Stand Out
    January 23, 2026, 10:17 PM EST. Investor uncertainty persists amid shifting markets and economic concerns, but quality Canadian stocks on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) offer long-term potential.

CAPREIT provides steady cash flow and a diversified apartment portfolio across Canada, making it a low-risk buy. Also notable is goeasy (TSX:GSY), which appears undervalued amid concerns over rising bad debt.
