The Canadian Investor

In this episode of the Canadian Investor Podcast, we go over the US May CPI data and the US Federal Reserve's rate hike announcement. We break down the latest CPI figures, highlighting the trends in energy, services, and food prices, and discuss what these mean for the inflation outlook. Following this, we delve into the Federal Reserve's decision to keep rates unchanged, examining the nuances of their quantitative tightening and economic activity assessments.

Additionally, we discuss Nvidia's significant impact on the S&P 500, Adobe's impressive earnings report, and Dollarama's resilient performance amidst economic challenges. We also cover National Bank's ambitious bid to acquire Canadian Western Bank and its implications for the Canadian banking sector.

The episode finishes with Simon going over the recent downgrade of Allied Property REIT's debt and what it means for the office REIT going forward.
