Suncor Energy Inc. — Suncor Energy Inc.now has strong first-quarter earnings in its arsenal and a publicized plan to improve worker safety, but some observers say that won’t be enough for the Calgary-based oil giant to fend off an aggressive activist investor. Speaking publicly Tuesday for the first time since U.S.-based Elliott Investment Management called for changes to the company’s leadership as well as the possible sale of the Petro-Canada retail chain, CEO Mark Little said Suncor is on the right track. Little touted Suncor’s profits of $2.95 billion in the first quarter — up from $821 million in the same period of 2021 — as well as the highest quarterly cash flow in the company’s history as proof.

RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:REI.UN). Down 84 cents, or 3.85 per cent, to $20.99. The company says it’s seeing strong demand for retail space, even as companies work to recover from the effects of COVID-19 and cope with rising inflation. Jonathan Gitlin, the real estate company’s chief executive officer, said Tuesday that the demand is stemming from a lack of new and well-positioned retail space built over the last decade, and is coupled with retailers who have evolved their thinking during the pandemic. The trust reported a first-quarter profit of $160.1 million, up from $106.7 million a year ago. The trust said the profit amounted to 52 cents per diluted unit for the quarter, up from 34 cents per diluted unit a year earlier.
