Published 2024-12-30, 05:18 a/m

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, we explore the major investing stories of 2024 that reshaped financial markets. We begin with the Bank of Canada’s aggressive 175-basis-point rate cuts and their ripple effects across the economy. Next (LON:NXT), we analyze the sharp decline of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar, plunging to levels not seen in two decades.

We also dive into Bitcoin’s extraordinary 2024, driven by spot ETF approvals, the halving, and unexpected political tailwinds. Additionally, we highlight gold’s resurgence, the wave of small-cap Canadian acquisitions, and the top-performing sectors in Canadian and U.S. markets this year.
