Canada’s Housing Reset, AI Circular Financing and the Fed’s Impossible Choice

1mo ago50m
In this episode of Canadian Macro, Simon and Dan break down the disconnect between headline economic data and what households are actually experiencing.
They discuss why strong jobs and GDP numbers may not tell the full story for Canadian consumers, how mortgage renewals and rising housing costs are putting pressure on household finances, and why the Bank of Canada may be stuck waiting for clearer signals before making its next move.
They also dive into the growing debate around the AI boom — including Nvidia’s massive AI financing plans, the risks of circular financing, whether AI companies can eventually generate enough profits to justify current spending, and what could happen if investor expectations shift.
Plus, they discuss oil markets, inflation risks, bond yields, the Fed’s difficult choices, and what a potential slowdown could mean for investors.
