Here’s a 27 minute podcast:
Is Canada’s housing bubble finally popping?
Or was it never really a bubble in the first place? What we know right now is that sales are falling, prices are dropping (slightly!) and some investors are getting out.
Or was it never really a bubble in the first place? What we know right now is that sales are falling, prices are dropping (slightly!) and some investors are getting out. What we don’t know are the full ramifications of rising interest rates on a market that has been white hot for more than a decade now.
Over the next few months, we’ll see if this is a correction, a cooling or a crash. What will that mean for home owners? For aspiring buyers? For those stuck in a tough rental market? And even, yes, for people using homes as investment properties, which helped drive the market to such incredible highs?
At the end of June where were an estimated 463,000 new homes for sale, a 9.4-month supply at the current sales pace. A year earlier the 350,000-home inventory was estimated at a 5.8-month supply.
‘Shopify Inc. has cut 10 per cent of its staff – about 1,000 people globally – as it deals with challenges posed by the slowing growth of e-commerce and its weakening financial results amid a broad-based stock selloff pummelling the technology sector.’
‘In a memo to staff on Tuesday, shortly before announcing second-quarter financial results on Wednesday, chief executive officer Tobias Lutke said the reduction would take place by the end of the day. Most of the jobs affected are in the sales, accounting and recruiting departments. However, across the company, Shopify will also eliminate “over-specialized and duplicate roles,” Mr. Lutke said, adding that he is assessing “some groups that were convenient to have but too far removed from building products.”
‘On top of that, the Ottawa-based company is considering further layoffs before the end of this year, should the tech slowdown continue to squeeze its profit margins, according to two senior officials at Shopify.’
‘Mr. Lutke believed the share of dollars coming from online retail as opposed to physical, in-store shopping would quickly “leap ahead by five or even 10 years,” compared with previous forecasts, he said. It’s why Shopify doubled employment since early 2020 to more than 10,000 people around the world in order to meet that expected demand.’
‘But now, Mr. Lutke regrets those decisions. “Ultimately, placing this bet was my call to make and I got this wrong,” he told staff in his memo on Tuesday. “As a consequence, we have to say goodbye to some of you today and I’m deeply sorry for that. … For a company like ours, this news will be difficult to digest.”
Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said the move — which will see flows to Germany fall to 20% of its capacity from an already low level of 40% — was tantamount to a “gas war” with Europe. Germany’s economy minister, Robert Habeck, said the excuse that maintenance was the reason for the supply cut was a “farce.”
Moral of the story: don’t wage economic wars you can’t win.
It’s pretty obvious that NATO thought the economic sanctions would quickly bring Russia to its knees and that the rainbow flag would be flying over the Kremlin by now.
There’s never a crisis…. in falling housing prices.
