There are massive protests happening in Iran right now and I'm genuinely confused why this isn't leading every news outlet.
People are risking their lives in the streets right now, and the world is barely watching. That's worth questioning.

@MPelletierCIO National security and low oil price … having a huge reserve is always prudent
English
China’s normal oil consumption is around 16 million barrels per day (bpd), making it the second-largest consumer globally after the U.S. BUT:
· Since March 2025, China has been adding close to 1 million barrels per day (bpd) to its reserves, according to Gunvor and IEA estimates.
· Bernstein reports China has added ~100 million barrels this year, bringing total reserves to 1.38 billion barrels, equal to 112 days of import cover.
· China’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) currently holds about 500 million barrels, and Beijing plans to add another 150 million barrels while Brent remains below $70.
Commercial storage is also expanding: 11 new sites with 169 million barrels capacity are under construction through 2026.
Makes you wonder why are they stockpiling so much oil?

@Jabuyers @JayGenXer @chansoo Dont forget that you would pay 2-4% tax on property in Texas. For a $1.2M property, its between $24,000-$48,000 in tax annually.

Today we learned both will be rewarded with a cabinet position that includes a $100k top-up.

Canadians reelected Sean Fraser who destroyed our immigration system, and Chrystia Freeland who destroyed our finances. Help me understand this.

@SteveSaretsky That's hilarious. Carney has the same idea. bunch of geniuses ...

I thought you get back more than you pay. Why would she do this?

We tanked the economy so you can have cheap mortgages once again.

Canada Fin Min Freeland: "We have been working really hard to create the economic conditions which would make it possible for the Bank of Canada to lower rates and today we see the fruit of that hard work."

The Federal government’s Under Utilized Housing tax was projected to collect $200M in taxes. So far it’s collected $49M and cost CRA $59M to administer.
Homeowners are spending more than $500 in accounting fees just to remain compliant. advisor.ca/tax/tax-news/u…

@AmericanCdn @BenRabidoux I understand that Alberta is absorbing that many people because of affordability issue but those provinces are seeing 10x more population growth from out of the country still.
English
@Bitter_Money @BenRabidoux Interprovincial migration != Immigration. The above is net figures for people moving from one province to another, not outside Canada to Canada.
While total population grew in each province by far larger figures, net interprov seems to show ppl seeking better housing per $
English
You don't have to guess where 🇨🇦 housing is (relatively) affordable. Just look at the inter-provincial population flows...

@margot_rubin @bankofcanada Bank and government of Canada are bunch of incompetent people!! 2/3 of inflation is self-inflected at this point …
English
Remember when Tiff Macklem said the carbon taxes impact on inflation was “quite small?” @bankofcanada
Scott Moe@PremierScottMoe
SK’s decision to remove the Trudeau carbon tax on home heating dropped SK’s inflation rate in Jan to 1.9 per cent, down from 2.7 per cent in Dec and well below the national rate of 2.9 per cent. According to StatsCan: “In Saskatchewan, the collection of the carbon levy ceased in January 2024, contributing to the province's year-over-year price decline of natural gas (-26.6%).” The Trudeau carbon tax was over a quarter of the cost of natural gas in SK. If the feds are actually serious about fighting inflation, they would scrap the carbon tax on everyone and everything.
English
@TaraNWeber Wow that’s crazy!! Although with the government trend we should have expected this
English
For more context, we haven't seen prices this high since February 5, 2014. Almost a decade ago. #OOTT #naturalgas
English
Brrrrrrrrr. Natural gas prices at the AECO hub have just SOARED over the last few days during this deep freeze in Western Canada - daily prices are sitting at ~$14 / gigajoule. #oott #naturalgas

Hey Calgarians ⬇️
Dan McLean@DanWMcLean
Today at City Council I was presented with the 2024 City Budget which is proposing a nearly 8% PROPERTY TAX INCREASE for next year. I find this completely unacceptable in a time when many Calgarians are struggling with housing affordability. Higher property taxes not only means home owners pay more, but also renters. The fact is, this City has a spending problem, not a revenue problem. I will not be supporting a budget with record tax and spending increases. If you also have concerns I urge you to make a public submission by visiting forms.calgary.ca/content/forms/… by November 20th.

@PrinceParfait3 @MPelletierCIO Looks like Bitcoin etf is the catalyst… nothing solid though

@MPelletierCIO Honest question....what is the catalyst? I can't find anything...not complaining though

Dividends as % of Total YTD Capital Returns vs YTD Performance Including Dividends
-The median YTD performance for companies on this list that distributed 50%+ of their capital in terms of dividends is ~ 11%, while less than 50% is ~10.5%.
However, the median YTD performance for companies that distributed 75%+ of their capital in terms of dividends is only 7%, while those companies that distributed 75% of their capital in terms of buybacks have a median YTD return of ~16%. 🤷♂️
