From sticky prices to surprise job gains, I break down what moved while I was away and what it means for rate cuts ahead. Also in this episode: 📉 Canada’s trade deficit narrowed, but customs delays may be masking the real story. 👷 Canada’s job market surprised with a drop in unemployment—but mostly part-time gains. 📢 I spotlight the Blossom Investor Conference, a major event for self-directed investors. 🇺🇸 U.S. inflation rose again in June, with services and food leading the uptick. 🏭 U.S. durable goods orders jumped, but likely due to large aircraft contracts. ⚙️ Manufacturing remains in contraction—production’s up, but demand and hiring are still weak. 📈 U.S. job openings hit a 7-month high, led by hospitality and finance sectors. 📊 June payrolls added 147K jobs, showing consistent but unspectacular growth. 📉 Unemployment in the U.S. ticked down to 4.1%, but participation fell—raising long-term concerns. ----------- 📥 Subscribe to the Pulse Newsletter for Weekly Market News ➤ https://thepulse.beaviswealth.com/ Courses & Training - The Investing Academy ➤ https://bit.ly/theinvestingacademy Follow Us On Blossom ➤ https://getblossom.page.link/brandon Instagram ➤ https://bit.ly/3Oechgh LinkedIn ➤https://bit.ly/3RLndF7 Website ➤ https://www.beaviswealth.com ----------- 🏦🇨🇦 Sign Up Bonuses 💰💸: ► Wealthsimple Trade ($50 cash bonus) - wealthsimple.sjv.io/Vmome3 ► Wealthsimple Invest Robo-Advisor (Receive a $50 sign up bonus) - wealthsimple.sjv.io/oqQqKm ► NEO Financial (Cash Back Credit Card) - https://bit.ly/3yJqb4s ► Questrade Online Brokerage (Get $50 in commission-free trades) - https://bit.ly/3OhrRrK The above affiliate links are provided for your convenience, and if you click on a link and end up purchasing a product or service, this channel may receive compensation for the referral.
