The RBC focus on FDI also elides over Canada's net capital & financial account surpluses (i.e., net inflows) from 2008 to 2020. theglobeandmail.com/business…
Apparently the RBC created this chart, people are quoting it, and I cannot understand how a group of professional economists at one of our Big Six banks could get the sign of Canada's net international investment position wrong. 1/2

A 10% cap on credit card interest rates sounds like instant relief for US consumers. It risks becoming a negative shock to credit access.

In @CNBC, I spoke with @jdickler about what another Fed rate cut could mean for household borrowing. A small move from the Fed won't help everyone: variable-rate debt may ease a bit, but rates on longer-term loans like mortgages depend on bond-market yields and inflation. cnbc.com/2025/12/08/what-ano…

New York’s new mayor is promising sweeping reforms — from rent freezes to expanded child care. In Life with Mamdani from @Columbia_Biz, I noted the new child care plans could improve access for families, but the full economic cost isn’t yet clear. youtube.com/watch?v=D8kprQhF…
