Canada’s inflation rate edged higher in July, but much of the increase appears temporary. Higher gas and travel costs drove the rise, while underlying price pressures remained close to the Bank of Canada’s 2% target.

What does a weaker yen have to do with Canadian housing affordability?
The U.S. and Japan took the unusual step this month of jointly intervening to support the yen — the first such action since 1998. The move highlights how Japanese capital flows can ripple through global markets, potentially putting pressure on Canadian bond yields and fixed mortgage rates.
Our latest Housing Affordability Watch explores what this could mean for Canadian borrowers and housing affordability.

Mortgage arrears are rising — but is a crisis looming?
Our latest Housing Affordability Watch examines the findings of a recent Desjardins report on the outlook for Canadian mortgage arrears.

Kevin Warsh is reshaping the Federal Reserve’s communication strategy, scaling back forward guidance in favour of letting economic data drive market expectations.
But markets have struggled with the shift, questioning whether less communication signals greater discipline — or greater uncertainty. The result has been increased volatility in bond markets, with ripple effects beyond the U.S.
This week’s Market Monitor examines the Fed’s new approach, the market reaction, and what it could mean for Canadian borrowers.

Institutional investors are often cited as a factor influencing housing affordability, but how large is their role in Canada’s housing market?
