In this episode, I discuss the Bank of Canada’s decision to cut interest rates by 25 basis points to 3% and end quantitative tightening. Inflation has cooled, but economic growth remains weak, prompting the central bank to shift gears. What does this mean for homebuyers, businesses, and the economy? And will more cuts follow?

Also in this episode:

📉 The Federal Reserve holds interest rates steady—why is it pausing after three rate cuts in 2024?

🔮 Will the Fed cut rates again in 2025, or is a longer pause coming?

In this episode, I review the current stock market valuation using standard deviation to assess risk. With major indices trading at extreme levels, history suggests a correction could be imminent. Are we in for a market downturn, or is this just another dip before more gains? I break down the data and what it means for investors.

Also in this episode:

📉 Dot-Com Bubble Collapse – How extreme valuations led to the Nasdaq crashing nearly 80% in 2000 and the lessons investors can learn.

🏡 2008 Financial Crisis – Overvaluation and excessive speculation drove markets to unsustainable highs before the crash—does this sound familiar today?

📊 Current Market Risks – The S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow, and TSX are all above +2 standard deviations—what this means for future returns.

💡 Investor Strategies – Why now may be the time to rebalance, take profits, or prepare for volatility before markets revert to the mean.

📆 What’s Next? – Markets always correct eventually. The question is when—and how severe the pullback will be.

In this episode, I look at the latest Canadian retail sales report for November. Overall sales were flat, grocery stores, liquor stores, and big-box retailers struggled, while car sales saw a boost. Online shopping also dipped slightly.

Also in this episode:

🚚 Amazon shuts down in Quebec—Nearly 2,000 workers are losing their jobs as Amazon moves to outsource deliveries, raising questions about unionization and labor laws.

💰 Jamie Dimon backs tariffs—The JPMorgan CEO says tariffs aren’t a big deal and could actually help U.S. interests, despite concerns about inflation and global trade tensions.

🍫 Hershey’s Cherry Blossom discontinued—The classic Canadian candy is being phased out after more than a century, leaving fans (and critics) with mixed feelings.

In this episode, I look at Canada’s latest inflation numbers, which hit a new low of 1.8% in December. Food prices are slowing dramatically, rent inflation is easing, but rising gas prices could complicate future rate cuts. With the Bank of Canada’s next decision coming up, will inflation stay low enough for more easing?

Also in this episode:

🪙 Bank of America’s CEO on Crypto – Brian Moynihan says banks are ready to embrace crypto, but regulatory uncertainty is holding them back. Will clearer rules change the game?

🏠 B.C. Cracks Down on Short-Term Rentals – A new registration system aims to free up housing, but Airbnb hosts argue the rules are too strict. What will this mean for renters and investors?
