Have a hard time wrapping my head around this https://vancouver.citynews.ca/video/...-in-vancouver/
So the feds give a billion dollar loan to private enterprise? How is this any different than giving Bosa a loan?

It's hurting right now, and it'll hurt some more time when I need to renew because I'll be so behind.

To get a sense of how big the increase has been in the past year (since March actually) the cumulative increase in rates (3%) is an effective 20-30% increase in housing prices assuming normal sized downpayment (eg. the size of the monthly payment has increased by 20-30%). In other words housing prices need to drop more than 30% in order to improve affordability and a 30% drop in housing prices is probably really bad for the economy. We're likely to still end up in a state where housing costs more than it did a year ago.

Remember the primary intent of the interest rate hikes is to curb inflation, not increase house affordability.

BMO is “pencilling in” a half-percentage-point increase in October, but stronger or weaker inflation data could sway that call before then, according to Benjamin Reitzes, the bank’s managing director of Canadian rates and macro strategist.
TD Bank senior economist James Orlando said in a note that the bank now expects the key policy rate to hit 4.0 per cent by the end of the year, a move which would take even more steam out of Canada’s economy.
“This implies even more growth sacrifice as the BoC attempts to achieve its goal of price stability,” he wrote. https://globalnews.ca/news/9110765/b...ate-sept-2022/ | |

Price stability? lawl. We went straight up and we're going straight down with the upcoming recession. Then we'll go straight up again.
We can rely on them to overshoot in either direction.

I'm not an economist but I assume in the long term, uncontrolled inflation is more of a threat than housing prices, and so they have to make the difficult tradeoff of getting inflation under control knowing full well it threatens the housing situation of many people.
I guess that's why they had the stress test in place, they knew something like this would be coming.

Anyone follow the 10-2 yield?
Based by what history has shown us, and if the yield stays negative for another x months, there's gonna be some shit going on 12-24 months from now
