Headlines are noisy. Operations are not.

In this episode, Corey breaks down five real, dated economic and market stories and translates them into decisions you can make this week if you lead an SMB or mid‑market business.

Using verified datapoints (Canada’s CPI mix, the Bank of Canada rate hold and growth outlook, fast-moving tariff/surcharge rules with USMCA/CUSMA exemptions, Hormuz-driven shipping/fuel risk, and a sharp spike in DRAM/SSD contract pricing), Corey connects them to the same three internal levers every leadership team can control:

Pricing & demand

Cash & financing

Contracts & supply-chain dependencies
