On the podcast today, Director of ETFs Andrei Bruno unpacks the current ETF landscape, and discusses emerging trends that are on his radar.  Andrei explains to host Bryan Borzykowski that Bank of Canada rate hikes weren’t a shock to the market, and inflation in both the U.S. and Canada remain above the 2% target. The European Central Bank, however, faces worse inflationary pressure, with inflation continuing to run higher than their 2% projection.  As consumption slows, Andrei explains, the extent and outcome of economic cooling will depend on various factors including the effectiveness of central bank policies, consumer behaviour, and global economic conditions.
