So, for investors planning to invest $5,000 in November, here are the top Canadian stocks to buy now.

Aritzia

Aritzia (TSX:ATZ) is a top TSX stock to invest in November. The clothing company is poised to benefit from higher demand during the holiday season.

WELL Health

Cargojet

Cargojet (TSX:CJT) is a top Canadian stock to buy in November. The leading air cargo company will benefit from the heightened demand for its services during the holiday shopping season.
