For a certain kind of high school grad, paying tuition started looking like a dodgy proposition.<\/p>\n<p>Then the boom went bust.<\/p>\n<p>For one reason or another, the young construction workers and sales agents who skipped college to enter the workforce never went back, opening a schism between the boom-time workers and the college-going generation that came of age after the economy went splat.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the story sketched out in a new working paper, published by National Bureau of Economic Research, from professors Kerwin Kofi Charles and Erik Hurst at the University of Chicago and Matthew Notowidigdo of Northwestern University. The three used Census Bureau, Department of Education, and Labor Department data to track what they call \u201ccollege attainment\u201d through the housing cycle.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The NBER <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nber.org\/papers\/w21587?utm_campaign=ntw&#038;utm_medium=email&#038;utm_source=ntw\">wants five bucks for the paper<\/a>. Good luck with that.<\/p>\n<p>The best economic news all year is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/report-on-business\/tpp-deal-could-mark-start-of-the-end-for-supply-management-in-canada\/article26671722\/\">agreement on the TPP<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A free-trade deal that opens a small part of the Canadian dairy market to cheaper foreign imports could spell the beginning of the end for the country\u2019s dairy supply management system, and push inefficient farmers out of business, observers say.<\/p>\n<p>The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) deal, a trade pact among 12 countries including Japan, Vietnam and Australia that was reached in Atlanta on Monday, will give foreign dairy producers access to 3.25 per cent of the Canadian market while increasing duty-free access for Canada\u2019s agricultural exports.<\/p>\n<p>The deal was welcomed by large swaths of the agriculture sector, including pork and beef producers and grain farmers, who expect to see new demand for their goods overseas. But the negative effects are expected to be disproportionately felt by Canada\u2019s dairy farmers, who face the prospect of cheaper foreign competition and the gradual erosion of prices paid by the large food companies that make cheese, butter and milk.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Now to get it ratified&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>It was a decent day for the Canadian preferred share market, with PerpetualDiscounts gaining 28bp, FixedResets off 2bp and DeemedRetractibles down 4bp. The Performance Highlights table is skewed towards winners. Volume was average.<\/p>\n<p>For as long as the FixedReset market is so violently unsettled, I\u2019ll keep publishing updates of the more interesting and meaningful series of FixedResets\u2019 Implied Volatilities. This doesn\u2019t include Enbridge because although Enbridge has a large number of issues outstanding, all of which are quite liquid, the range of Issue Reset Spreads is too small for decent conclusions.
