Market Action

December 29, 2023

TXPR closed at 540.41, up 1.07% on the day. Volume today was 1.63-million, fourth-lowest of the past 21 trading days.

CPD closed at 10.76, up 0.66% on the day. Volume was 104,520, below the median of the past 21 trading days.

ZPR closed at 9.12, up 0.88% on the day. Volume was 71,900, second-lowest of the past 21 trading days.

Five-year Canada yields were down to 3.19%.

It was a valiant effort on the last trading day of the year, but the TXPR price index closed below the 2022-12-30 value of 544.36. Still, it’s well above the year’s low close on 2023-10-30 of 487.48, so that counts for something.

Not much else happened:

Canada’s main stock index ended higher on the final trading day of the year, wrapping 2023 with gains, powered by a boost in energy and financial stocks.

The Toronto Stock Exchange’s S&P/TSX composite index was up 29.06 points, or 0.14%, at 20,958.44, a third consecutive weekly gain.

Although battling inflationary winds, Canadian stocks snapped last year’s declines to climb 8% in the year, entering 2024 with fresh hopes of an interest rate cut by the Bank of Canada.

U.S. stocks closed modestly lower on the last trading day of 2023 and capped a robust year-end rally as investors eyed easier monetary policy in the year ahead.

Happy New Year, everybody!

Market Action

December 28, 2023

There was a decent little pop in the market today, as the end of tax-loss selling season reduced a certain amount of selling pressure. I think. You can never be sure!

Market Action

December 27, 2023

PerpetualDiscounts now yield 6.96%, equivalent to 9.05% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates yielded 4.72% on 2023-12-15 and since then the closing price has changed from 15.88 to 15.70, a decline of 69bp in price, with a Duration (BMO doesn’t specify Modified or Macaulay – I will assume the former) of 12.60 implying an increase of 5bp in yield to 4.77%, so the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread”) has narrowed to 430bp from the 440bp reported December 20.

Market Action

December 22, 2023

A bit of good news on US inflation:

The Federal Reserve’s preferred measure of prices fell last month, another sign that inflation is easing and that Americans should benefit from reduced interest rates and get relief from painful price shocks in 2024.

Friday’s report from the Commerce Department showed that U.S. consumer prices slid 0.1 per cent last month from October and rose 2.6 per cent from November, 2022. The month-over-month drop was the largest since April, 2020, when the economy was reeling from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Excluding volatile food and energy prices, so-called core inflation last month rose 0.1 per cent from October and 3.2 per cent from a year earlier.

The numbers show somewhat more progress against inflation than economists had expected. Inflation is steadily moving down to the Fed’s year-over-year target of 2 per cent and appears to be clearing the way for Fed rate cuts in 2024. That, in turn, could translate into lower rates on everything from mortgages to credit cards.

… and Merry Christmas, everyone!

Market Action

December 20, 2023

We might be getting a new SplitShare fund:

Ninepoint Partners LP (“Ninepoint”) is pleased to announce that Canadian Large Cap Leaders Split Corp. (the “Company”) has filed a preliminary prospectus dated December 19, 2023 in connection with an initial public offering of preferred shares (“Preferred Shares”) and class A shares (“Class A Shares”). A receipt for the preliminary prospectus has been issued by the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces and territories of Canada.

The Company will invest in an initially equally-weighted portfolio comprised primarily of equity securities of Canadian Dividend Growth Companies (as defined below), selected by the portfolio manager, that at the time of investment and immediately following each periodic reconstitution and rebalancing: (i) are listed on a Canadian exchange; (ii) pay a dividend; (iii) generally have a market capitalization of at least $10 billion; (iv) have options in respect of its equity securities that, in the opinion of the portfolio manager, are sufficiently liquid to permit the portfolio manager to write options in respect of such securities; and (v) have a history of dividend growth or, in the portfolio manager’s view have high potential for future dividend growth (“Canadian Dividend Growth Companies”).

The preferreds have been provisionally rated Pfd-3(high) by DBRS

PerpetualDiscounts now yield 6.97%, equivalent to 9.06% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates yielded 5.03% on 2023-12-8 and since then the closing price has changed from 15.18 to 15.86, an increase of 448bp in price, with a Duration (BMO doesn’t specify Modified or Macaulay – I will assume the former) of 12.41 implying a decrease of 36bp in yield to 4.67%, so the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread”) has widened to 440bp from the 430bp reported December 13.

Market Action

December 19, 2023

It seems inflation isn’t quite dead yet:

Canada’s inflation rate unexpectedly held steady in November as the services sector put upward pressure on consumer prices, a slight hiccup as the Bank of Canada looks to tame inflation.

The Consumer Price Index rose 3.1 per cent in November from a year earlier, matching October’s increase, Statistics Canada said Tuesday in a report. Analysts on Bay Street were expecting the inflation rate to ease to 2.9 per cent.

On a monthly basis, the CPI rose 0.1 per cent in November, whereas analysts were expecting a slim decline.

Beneath the surface, however, there were signs of progress. Various core measures of inflation – which remove volatile price movements from the CPI – continued to slow.

The services side of the economy is a major source of inflationary pressure. Over all, prices for services rose 4.6 per cent in November from a year earlier, matching the increase in October.

Rents climbed by 7.4 per cent over the past year, down from 8.1 per cent in October, but still well above typical levels. Mortgage interest costs are still rising by around 30 per cent, year over year.

Grocery prices rose 4.7 per cent on an annual basis – the first reading below 5 per cent since November, 2021. This moderation was foreshadowed by pricing at earlier stages of the supply chain.

One of the more promising signs in Tuesday’s report is that some measures of core inflation are simmering down. The Bank of Canada’s preferred measures – CPI-median and CPI-trim – rose at three-month annualized rates of 2.3 per cent and 2.6 per cent, respectively. They were in the 3.5-per-cent range in recent months.
