The analysis of this issue is too polarized on both sides. There are valid arguments for both hold and cut. Something that continues to be missed in most analyses is that the most recent inflation reading reflects the effect of interest rates 18 - 24 months ago. This is largely because many sectors make pricing and workforce decisions well in advance and for a fiscal year at a time. So 2.7% headline CPI reflects an overnight lending rate of 3.75% in Oct 2032, only mildly restrictive. It is entirely unknown how quickly inflation will fall from this point on, but the rate of change will increase quickly until mid-to-late 2024. One perspective that is worth considering is that 1 - 3 % inflation does not truly constitute price stability from a technical perspective. In a productive, competitive, balanced economy, the cost of many goods and services in real terms should not be increasing, actually. A productive, competitive, balanced economy should be delivering 0% price growth or price declines in real terms due to innovation improvements in efficiency. The idea that 1 - 3 % inflation constitues price stability misrepresents inflation as lower than it really is when the quality of goods produced is taken into account. Just because something costs more does not mean that the productive output of an economy has increased. So GDP is not necessarily a reliable indicator of the performance of an economy. The output gap (% of unused current and potential capacity of businesses) is a much more reliable indicator and is below the historical average. Unused output capacity is a sign of weakness. Some weakness for a short period of time is alright but should not be allowed to linger. Due to supply-demand imbalances, I do not see that freehold detached house peices can fall in the next 3 years. Unlike most industries, residential real estate development is asset light and can easily scale down its output to respond to lower demand. That is exactly what builders and investors have done: stop building single detached. The increase in listings this spring does not indicate any easing in supply-demand conditions but rather a market lull that will eventually be broken. And a balanced market of 53% SNLR does not spell disaster for house prices. Keep in mind that if restrictive policy can only keep the SNLR at 53%, then neutral policy will result in a seller's market. Ex-shelter inflation was 1.2%. there is a limit how long they can wait before they have to cut. The BoC has admitted they will not be able to bring shelter inflation down with a restrictive policy rate. Our economy has been weak for a very long time. It is not healthy or desirable to bolster GDP with outsized, sometimes non-prodictive, spending on housing. If the economy as a whole were productive, competitive, and balanced, shelter inflation, goods inflation, snd services inflation would be in much closer alignment, which would drastically reduce price swings and the frequency and intensity of easing snd tightening cycles. Bottom line: improve the underlying health of the economy and re-calibrate lending rates to a new neutral to allow for productivity improvements.

According to the radio on Thursday, May 30th, 2024. 680 News was saying the Bank of Canada was going to Cut Interest Rates. O my god, Inflation is still going on. This will prolong inflation. We need to get those rates up to 10 to 14% kill off inflation. It was Harper after 2009 that kept rates low which was a big mistake, causing hyper house prices. The rates should have be going up 1.0 to 1.5 percent a year so by 2020 They would have been back at pre 2008 levels 10 to 12 percent. The Government created this mess by holding rates at 1.88% for 10 years. Now we are in a period of hyper inflation with everything from house to food to cars.

This trend will undoubtedly benefit the banks' revenue and performance for the coming decades. Please take a look at Jeff Rubin's latest book, "A Map of the New Normal." I've watched all his interviews, and he believes the BoC will maintain higher rates for longer due to de-globalization.

It is not just about Canada, that BoC is reluctant to cut the rates, it is about growing global geopolitical tensions and brewing conflicts all over the world that could impact the global supply chains, global energy supplies, and global security. Bank of Canada is preparing the country and the public for the worst-case scenario, a "War Economy". All NATO and Western nations' Central Banks prepare the countries and their economies for possible ongoing conflicts. Defense/security spending will be going up and so the government's deficits and taxes. BoC is in direct contact with government officials, the Ministry of Defence, and Canadian Security officials and they get their daily briefing about ever-evolving geopolitical situations. The BoC governor is also in direct contact with NATO nations' central banks to coordinate their monetary policies in case of full-scale conflict. The possibility of the rate cut is increasingly diminishing due to the developing geopolitical situations on the ground in Eastern Europe and West Asia. There won't be any possibility of rate cuts, after the 2024 US Presidential Election in November, things might take a different turn, the global Inflation may skyrocket as it did in 1972 and 1976 during the Vietnam era which led to 1980s high inflation and drastic rise of interest rates. Bank of Canada will be looking for Paul Volker 2.0 to come in and clean up the inflation mess once again. The current BoC governor has been unable to control his own created inflation, he has no clue. Again, NO RATE CUTS for 2024, 2025, and 2026, even if there are one or two, it will be short-lived and the rates will be jacked up again to a much higher level than the current one.

Reducing interest rates is akin to adding fuel to the persistent fire of inflation. I often liken inflation to our blood pressure. The inflation, or blood pressure (BP), skyrocketed due to an unprecedented amount of money being printed (Quantitative Easing or QE). Then, the medication (higher interest rates and Quantitative Tightening or QT) managed to lower the BP (inflation to 2.7). We understand that our BP should ideally be 120/80, which equates to a 2 percent inflation rate. Now, picture this: the doctors (or so-called experts) are suggesting that it’s okay to start eating red meat again. We all know the consequence - the BP will inevitably rise (inflation will swiftly increase from 2.7 percent to 3 percent and higher..). The BOC is aware that it needs to maintain higher interest rates to stabilize the market, and then it needs to persistently keep the rates high (four hundred basis points) to ensure the economy’s well-being. BOC's message is very clear, its the delusional low rate addicts who want more booze..

Why do you change your so called technical analysis every time it doesn't fit your narrative? Last year it was all about the head and shoulders model. That ended up wrong so now you just don't talk about it anymore?

does technical analysis ever work for housing? it really only works in the stock market because traders use it. chicken or the egg situation. housing is completely different and i don't believe it has ANY relevance at all for predicting the future prices. prove me wrong.

Technical analysis requires a leap of faith with one closed eye. It’s not about stocks vs houses, people move in herds in either case when someone gives them a reason (a good chart). It’s about the fact that history is a one way street- it doesn’t repeat, although it does rhyme. Given the existence of Black Swan events etc etc the idea that TA has predictive power is laughable. But yes, if you tell enough people to buy or sell many will follow the herd….until they don’t. So…TA works, until it doesn’t. But because it doesn’t contain within herself an explanation (until after the fact, which is easy) *why* its predictive power ends, it is nothing better than astrology.

If history is to repeat itself, when inflation rises, interest rates go up, and deficits balloon. So all else being equal, higher inflation means higher interest rates - meaning ever deeper deficits. This is vicious feedback loop with interest rates, inflation, and deficits. More inflation, more deficits. More deficits, higher inflation thus higher hard asset prices. Most homes in Canada have very little leverage. Even if interest rates go to 20%, it won't bother most home owners at least not enough to create a fire sale to drop prices materially across the board. We've lived through this in the seventies / eighties. Of course, should that happen today, it would trigger an inflationary depression which the world has never seen.

My target on the national average residential price is $575,000 which is considerably less than where we are The Canadian real estate pumpers on KZbin will have you believe that all is well and now is the best time to buy because as soon as the BoC reduces rates by 25 basis points, people will be lined up to buy homes.

If the BoC's top priority is to maintain the value of money (assuming they are actually referring to the Canadian dollar) then they should not cut rates. The $CAD is hovering around a very pathetic 73¢. While some say a low $CAD is good for exports, it's actually not because exporters use the low dollar as a crutch to disincentive efficiency, productivity and innovation. Meanwhile, anything we import, which is just about everything, costs more. Also, no matter what the BoC does, they also have to contend with a completely insane and irresponsible federal government that likes to spend money like drunken sailors. It's called fiscal dominance and it means that monetary policy is overpowered by government spending.

*As I see it, from all the talking heads I’ve watched* The fundamental assumption of technical analysis is that there are historical patterns that allow us to make predictions about future…stock price movements for instance. But stocks (and houses) aren’t traded in a vacuum. Humans trade them. So while human behaviour has an element of predictability because pattern seeking has enabled us to survive, there is nothing that says the external conditions (society, the economy, the weather!) in which humans trade stocks or buy houses, will remain the same, yet this is a requirement of technical analysis - that external factors remain the same (or close). You can give me all the technical analysis you want telling me house prices are going down, but then we get an external shock and interest rates drop and they go up instead. So your chart might make sense but the real world rarely conforms. Technical analysts will say “but that rate drop fit within our theory” but the reality is that there is a lot of backward looking justification for successes and failures and any theory that can explain anything and everything is more akin to astrology than science. I would submit that TA is not worth much because external factors can be pulled in to explain its failures so most of it isn’t internally consistent or coherent to begin with.
