  • Known unknowns: Three-minute macro

    Known unknowns: Three-minute macro

    We're in an environment ripe with significant uncertainties that reduce visibility and make it difficult to have high conviction. Banking fragilities continue and the debt ceiling drama will be harmful to growth, no matter how it resolves. Meanwhile, we’re keeping an eye on European equities, which we think are losing their shine.

  • Bank on it: the state of Canadian financial institutions in the wake of bank failures abroad

    Bank on it: the state of Canadian financial institutions in the wake of bank failures abroad

    The financial community was rocked by a string of bank failures in March. The failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in the United States could have been seen as isolated events, given their significant ties to the tech community that had seen a major downturn in recent months. But investors were rattled even further when Credit Suisse, one of the 30 global systemically important banks, was acquired by rival UBS to prevent the former’s collapse, followed weeks later by the collapse of First Republic Bank, which became the second-largest bank failure in U.S. history. The banking community was put on notice, including in Canada, where banks play a huge role in our economy.

  • The signals and the noise: Three-minute macro

    The signals and the noise: Three-minute macro

    With such a strong job market, how can a recession possibly be in the works? Our answer lies in some troubling leading indicators for growth. At the same time, we think oil’s importance in inflation means some reprieve for the Consumer Price Index in the future. Finally, we note that central banks’ bias toward rate hikes may mean more cuts down the road.

  • 4 reasons GP-led secondaries are here to stay

    4 reasons GP-led secondaries are here to stay

    Were GP-led secondaries a function of a buoyant economy and abnormally low interest rates or do they represent a true private market innovation that will survive the downturn and continue to play a role in the future?

    Is the Fed as dovish as the market thinks it is?

    Concerns about the strength of the global financial system have led to a significant shift in market expectations of when the U.S. Federal Reserve might start lowering interest rates. Has the market been too optimistic?

  • The bar to stop hiking is probably lower than the bar to cut rates

    The bar to stop hiking is probably lower than the bar to cut rates

    Concerns about financial stability may not have stopped the Fed from raising rates; however, there's a growing sense that we're now closer to—if not already at—the end of the U.S. rate-hike cycle.
