With his book, Stenner on Mutual Funds©,
Gordon Stenner has given the public and mutual funds industry a unique
guide. It is my sense that this book will be an important tool for mutual,
fund shareholders and financial advisors in Canada. It is seldom that you find an individual who has the tenacity and
intelligence to stick with a financial concept no matter how difficult the
environment because of his personal conviction that his clients are best
served by “staying the course”. It is even more rare to find an individual
who is hen willing to share his years of experience and knowledge of the
business so that others may better understand the alternatives and profit
from this knowledge…
While mutual funds are a wonderful investment medium, the opportunities
they present are the very reason Gordon Stenner’s book is so relevant and
timely. Each day we are faced with myriad choices among literally hundreds
of funds, different investment styles, geographical preferences, and most
important, varying degrees of risk. It is important that in this highly
complex world of investments we heed the advice of a skilled grass-roots
practitioner… Gordon Stenner understands what it takes to profit from this economic
revolution. Through his book he has given investors a rare opportunity to
take advantage of his wisdom. Most importantly, he imparts his knowledge in
a fashion easily understood and applied in the world of investing. In my experience, the best books are based on the actual experiences of the
author; Stenner on Mutual Funds only serves to reaffirm this belief. For
the conservative long-term investor, this book should prove invaluable for
years to come. From the foreword, as requested by

“An outstanding piece of work…it is
appropriate that your wisdom should be passed on to the next generation
and even beyond---this is a book written for the audience that our
intermediaries serve.” - C. Warren-Goldring, Chairman of the Board and
CEO, AGF Management Limited, Toronto, Ontario (unsolicited)
“Gordon Stenner is not simply a great
advisor, he’s extremely articulate, a born motivator and an excellent
investment manager. And if there’s one guy in the investment industry who
thoroughly did his homework it was Gordon Stenner.” – Wayne Deans,
former President of M.K. Wong Investment Counsel, currently President and
CEO of Deans Knight Investment Counsel, Vancouver, B.C., Canada, national
“Mutual Fund Portfolio Manager of the Year” winner (unsolicited)
“To my mind, the $10 million barrier
(sales (1982) transactions in excess of $10 million a year) is equivalent
to the four-minute mile or 60 home runs in a season. But neither Roger
Bannister nor Babe Ruth were ever able to improve on their record.
(Gordon) seems determined to prove that there are no limits to human
endeavor.” – Arthur Mauro Q.C., President Investors Group, Winnipeg,
Manitoba, 1982 (unsolicited)
*Note: Mr. Mauro sent another congratulatory letter to Gordon to
congratulate him on his feat of producing over $22 million dollars of new
cash business in 1983, also an all-time record in the financial planning
industry in Canada at that time.
“The hallmark of the Stenner organization
is the use of Gordon Stenner’s proprietary “Stenner” Research Risk-Reward
balancing, providing even the small fund investor with (safety)
diversification beyond any individual fund. Research for Stenner was also
a high priority. Stenner developed a matchmaking concept that defined a
fund investor’s personality, and then sought to marry it to his appropriate
tailor-made Stenner Multi-fund portfolio.” – “Investment Executive”
Journal, Toronto, Ontario (unsolicited)
Annual Globe and
Mail Canadian Financial Mutual Fund Guide’s “Best Authors Awards”
“Stenner does a good job of explaining how the business cycle works, the
advantages of asset allocation and multi-fund investing, and the elements
required to build a well-balanced portfolio.” – Gordon Powers, Globe
and Mail Journalist, “Money – Report on Business” (unsolicited)
*Note: “Stenner on Mutual Funds” (Harper Business) 400 pgs. Hardcover,
was selected (rated) ahead of the two most popular Annual Mutual Fund
Guides, written by Gordon Pape and Ranga Chand.
“Learn to Love
Risk!”
“Gordon Stenner’s book “Stenner on Mutual Funds” is something of a
publishing landmark---10 years in the making at the suggestion of mutual
fund legend Sir John Templeton. It delves into the business of managing
risk far more deeply than the average book, and it certainly won’t go as
stale as last years “guide” to mutual funds. Gordon Stenner is a B.C.
Investment legend.” – Michael Kane, Vancouver Sun Newspaper, Money
