The Bank of Canada Is Watching — And So Should You Markets are closely parsing every signal from the Bank of Canada ahead of its next rate announcement. With inflation holding stubbornly above target in key categories like shelter and groceries, economists are split on whether another cut is on the table or a longer hold is in store. If you're carrying variable-rate debt or sitting on a GIC renewal, now is the time to model both scenarios. What to do: Don't lock into a long-term rate product until after the next announcement. A few days of patience could save you thousands. 2. Spring Housing Market: More Listings, Less Panic After years of near-empty inventory, more Canadian sellers are finally listing — particularly in the Greater Toronto Area and Greater Vancouver. The uptick in supply is giving buyers breathing room they haven't seen since pre-pandemic times. That said, prices haven't mean...
You must be careful when dealing with financial and business matters over the coming year. Fortunately, Saturn will make it easy for you to avoid making any serious errors but there will still be times when you are tempted to take unnecessary risks.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20):
Do you know a friend as well as you think you do? The planets indicate you are about to discover something about them that you find hard to believe but which is evidently true. What other secrets might they be keeping from you?
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):
Where there is confusion there is also opportunity and because some of the people you work and do business with clearly have no idea what is going on that is your invitation to make a financial killing. You can profit from their stupidity.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):
If you are smart you will listen to what a colleague has to tell you today, even though their advice is likely to be the opposite of what you want to hear. They are in a much better position to see what is going on than you are.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23):
Find out what the facts are and act on them, even if you want to believe that the opposite is true. It could do your reputation a great deal of harm if you stubbornly stick with an explanation of events that has no basis in reality.
LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):
There is no point trying to change a situation that has almost worked itself out. If you are smart you will put it behind you and move on to the next big challenge. Just because you have lost a battle doesn’t mean you will lose the war.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):
The more a colleague tells everyone what a wonderful human being you are today the more suspicious you will become. It could be the reason they are bigging you up is because they think they will benefit from being your closest associate.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):
Before you sign up for something new make sure you know everything about it. With mind planet Mercury at odds with Uranus, planet of surprises, there is a danger you might overlook a small detail now that could cost you big money later on.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):
It may be true that a colleague has let you down but making a song and dance about it won’t change a thing. Instead, put a mark beside their name in your little black book so they are the last person you go to for help in the future.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):
You are in no mood to listen to advice now that Mercury is moving into your sign. But while you may think you know everything about your current situation the cosmic picture will soon change dramatically, so don’t shun guidance completely.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):
It will pay you to steer clear of power struggles on the work front, because if you back one faction over another today you could find yourself on the wrong side tomorrow. Make it clear to everyone involved that you intend to stay neutral.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):
Do you blaze your own creative trail or do you join forces with people who objectives coincide with your own? The choice is yours to make but the planets suggest you will gain more in the long term if you choose a team now.
PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):
You cannot possibly win every competition you enter. There are people out there who are every bit as ambitious as you and you won’t get the better of them every time. Lower your sights just a little today – you’ll be happier for it.
