Inflation, energy, and bond market interventions
About this episode
The episode discusses the latest consumer price index data, inflation rates, bond yields, and market news, featuring insights from a Canadian business owner on the trade war.
This morning, we got consumer price index data for August. Prices went up 0.4%, and annual inflation is running at 3.4% — in line with expectations, but still way above what the Fed would like to see. Today, we'll break down the fresh inflation data, as well as rising bond yields, global interest rates, energy price fluctuations, and more of this week's market news. Plus, a Canadian business owner reflects on how his government is handling the trade war. Every story has an economic angle. Want some in your inbox? Subscribe to our daily or weekly newsletter .
