The Inflation Debate: Predicting the Fate of Interest Rates

Welcome back to the "Make Money Count" podcast by Cannect Home Financing, Toronto's leading Mortgage Brokerage.

In this insightful episode, Marcus delves into the key details of the Stats Can report, analyzing the recent changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), and how it affects the Bank of Canada's interest rate decisions. With a focus on the probability of interest rate increases and their subsequent effects on the market, Marcus provides valuable insights to help you make informed decisions regarding your mortgage.

Learn how stripping out components like gas, food, and mortgage interest can paint a clearer picture of Canada's inflation rate, and discover why the Bank of Canada might be looking for a "soft landing" for the economy.
