In this episode of the Canadian Investor Podcast, we start by discussing the 50 bps rate cut by the Bank of Canada last week. We go over our key takeaways from the press conference. Simon and I also discuss the implications of the BoC rate cut, rising bond yields and pressures on the Canadian dollar.

In the earnings roundup, we examine Rogers Communications (TSX:RCIa), where flat revenues and shrinking ARPUs reflect mounting competition, despite modest wireless growth. With high debt levels from recent acquisitions, Rogers faces challenges managing capital, but solid free cash flow keeps its dividend payout sustainable. We then turn to Newmont (TSX:NGT) and go over why the stock went down 15% after its most recent earnings release. We finish with Canadian National Railway’s (TSX:CNR) quarter, with revenue growth driven by long-haul grain exports, though struggles in petroleum, auto shipments, and lumber reflect broader economic headwinds.
