The Bank of Canada is implementing significant interest rate cuts to stimulate the sluggish housing market, a key driver of the economy. With low inflation returning, policymakers are accelerating these reductions, signaling a potential shift in the monetary cycle, despite not explicitly indicating further cuts.
New York City's pension funds are poised to expand their fossil fuel divestment strategy by prohibiting future investments in midstream and downstream fossil fuel infrastructure, following a recent court victory. Comptroller Brad Lander emphasized the financial risks posed by climate change, advocating for this policy to protect beneficiaries and mitigate systemic risks. The trustees are set to vote on the new policy in 2025 after assessing its implications.
The Bank of Canada is poised to implement a significant interest rate cut, with expectations of a half-percentage point reduction to 3.75%. This move reflects a response to declining inflation and stagnant economic growth, marking the first such cut since the Covid-19 pandemic.
Canada and the US are expected to have disagreements in trade talks, particularly on peripheral issues, but will likely find common ground in free-trade negotiations, according to RBC CEO Dave McKay. He emphasized the importance of the longstanding trade relationship, noting that Canada is the top trading partner for many states across the political spectrum. McKay believes that both nations recognize the mutual benefits of collaboration.
Industries are increasingly recognizing the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly Generative AI, which creates new content from vast datasets. A report by RBC Wealth Management highlights the long-term implications of Gen AI, noting challenges such as data accuracy, user privacy, and economic feasibility, especially regarding entry-level job replacement. While short-term benefits may be exaggerated, the profound long-term effects are often underestimated.
UBS Group's Relative Strength (RS) Rating improved from 69 to 72, still below the preferred benchmark of 80.

The company ranks No. 8 in the Banks-Money Centers industry group and is set to release its latest financial results around October 30.
