Disconnected markets and the real economy debate
The piece argues investors and media are detached from a robust Canadian economy, noting 4.3 percent quarterly growth, 400,000 new jobs, and strong housing demand. It contrasts investor caution with consumer confidence, cites Greenspan warnings, tech bubble bursts, and a shifting fear pendulum in Bay Street and mutual funds.
