The path of least regret

Ian is joined this week by Craig Bell, and the duo cover a lot of ground heading into the Bank of Canada interest rate decision next week. The episode begins with an in-depth discussion on why the Bank can credibly delay rate hikes in January. Craig goes on to discusses the path ahead for swap spreads, while Ian spends some time walking through what balance-sheet rolloff will look like in Canada, and why it isn’t as big a deal for the bond market as in the United States. The co-hosts spend some time discussing the misalignment in the front-end of the CAD curve, and Craig provides his favorite trading expressions over the next week.
