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 (NASDAQ:ABNB) and VRBO hosts argue the rules are too strict. What will this mean for renters and investors?
