Happy Monday Morning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We got more encouraging news on the inflation front. Consumer prices in Canada fell on a seasonally adjusted basis, dropping -0.1% month over month, the first drop since July 2020. Yes, annual inflation still looks very high at 6.3%, but that only tells us what happened a year ago. We discussed these big fat, laggy indexes<\/a> last week so no need to beat a dead horse. Let\u2019s try to filter through the noise here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As my good friend Ben Rabidoux points out, Consumer prices have been nearly flat over the past 6 months. Remember, prices don\u2019t have to drop, they just have to stop going up a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
