Royce and Ian take stock of the recent FOMC meeting, and discuss what new information they heard from the Fed. Royce explains the key drivers of inflation differentials between Canada and the United States, while Ian vents his frustration over the lack of response in the bond market. The new repo facilities are discussed within the context of how the sequencing of QE impacts the timing of U.S. rate hikes, and both Ian and Royce opine on what that means for the Bank of Canada.
