Interest rates are staying put: but for how long?

This week, Ashish Utarid, Assistant Vice-President, Investment Strategy at IG Wealth Management discusses the reasons why the Bank of Canada and U.S. Federal Reserve both decided to maintain the interest rate status quo.

Ashish also explores what this will mean for the markets and your portfolio.
