Canada’s inflation rate ticked up to 3.1% in September.
At first glance, that doesn’t sound great. But gasoline prices were up 27.8%. Take gasoline out, and inflation cooled to 2.2%.
Another reminder that one headline number rarely tells the whole story.

Bank of America ($BAC) shares fell as much as 8% today after a profit miss and a $1.2B regulatory charge—the third-largest in U.S. Treasury history.
It followed failures to report $5B+ in suspicious transactions.
Not every investment risk shows up in the financial statements.
Chip stocks sold off globally this morning while the $TSX rose 0.4%.
The difference? Energy shares helped lift Canada’s large-cap index as bond yields stabilized.
“The market” is never just one story.

Canada lost 68,000 jobs in September, but the $TSX rose 0.9% in early trading. That may sound backwards.
After the report, market odds of a @bankofcanada rate hike this month fell from 40% to 27%.
A good reminder:markets are always looking at what comes next.

An interesting AI story today isn’t about faster chips. It’s about how long they hold their value.
Nvidia says its GPUs can earn revenue for a decade, while banks typically underwrite them over just 3–4 years.
So who ultimately carries the risk?
