Another week brings us to yet another set of all-time highs for the S&P and DJIA! Despite a mid-week dip caused by the Federal Reserve’s decision to keep US interest rates steady, and caution it was unlikely the rate would go down in March, these indexes rebounded to set new records.

While my initial intention was to primarily focus on the Canadian and American economies, it’s important to recognize that the global economic landscape is interconnected. Recent turbulence in the world’s second-largest economy, China, has the potential to reverberate and impact both Canada and the US. When China, a major economic player, faces challenges, it can trigger a cascade of effects that extend beyond its borders.
