Market outlook
The Canadian economy is continuing to benefit from supportive fiscal policy and, notably, solid employment gains, which are nearly back to pre-COVID-19 level. As well, Canada has one of the most hawkish major central banks among developed-market economies. But how will Canadian housing impact the economy? What macro factors will drive the economy? How can I position for it?

As a result, Manulife Private Wealth has brought together a team of industry experts to help identify the key themes that could influence the markets in the coming year so you are better prepared when making financial decisions.
