Fact check: What is the total value of Carney's US stock portfolio?

1. Summary of the results

Based on the available analyses, the total value of Mark Carney's US stock portfolio cannot be determined from the sources examined. The analyses reveal only partial information about his financial holdings:

• Carney held $6.8 million US worth of unexercised stock options in Brookfield Asset Management as of December 31 ^[1]
• He had investments in more than 560 companies through a third-party managed account, including major US corporations like Tesla, Alphabet (Google), and Lockheed Martin ^[2]
• His investment portfolio includes 567 entities total, with only three being Canadian firms according to analysis by the Investigative Journalism Foundation ^[3]
• He also held assets in Stripe, Inc. ^[1]

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The question assumes that comprehensive information about Carney's US stock portfolio value is publicly available, but the analyses reveal significant gaps in disclosure:

• The Ethics Commissioner's published list appears to provide only selective information about Carney's investments, focusing on specific holdings rather than total portfolio values ^[1]
• The third-party managed account structure may obscure the true extent and value of his US holdings, as this arrangement typically provides less transparency about individual positions and their values ^[2]
• There is controversy surrounding the disclosure of his financial assets, suggesting that complete information may not be publicly available ^[4]

Financial transparency advocates would benefit from having complete portfolio valuations disclosed, while Carney and his advisors may benefit from maintaining privacy around the full extent of his wealth and potential conflicts of interest.

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original question contains an implicit assumption that may be misleading:

• The question presupposes that the total value is known and available, when the analyses clearly show that this information has not been fully disclosed publicly ^{[4] [1] [2] [3]}
• By asking for a specific total value, the question may create false expectations that comprehensive financial disclosure has occurred when it has not
• The framing ignores the structural limitations of current disclosure requirements that allow for third-party managed accounts and selective reporting of holdings
