ZPR closed at 9.63<\/a>, up 0.21% on the day. Volume was 150,370, slightly above the median of the past 21 trading days.<\/p>\n

Five-year Canada yields were were up to 3.48%<\/a> today.<\/p>\n

It was a poor day all ’round, abetted by Fed commentary<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Adding to recent worries about monetary policy, Fed Governor Michelle Bowman said the central bank will need to keep raising interest rates until it makes much more progress tackling inflation. Richmond Fed President Thomas Barkin said the central bank still needs to raise interest rates, but that it could stick with quarter-point increases.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

… and the Canadian Industrial Product Price Index<\/a> announcement didn’t help:<\/p>\n

In January 2023, the Industrial Product Price Index increased 0.4% month over month, following two consecutive months of declines, and rose 5.4% year over year.<\/p>\n

Prices for energy and petroleum products rose 0.4% month over month, following a 10.2% decline in December. Year over year, prices were 19.8% higher in January compared with January 2022. In January 2023, the price of finished motor gasoline was up 8.8% and jet fuel rose 14.1%, while diesel fuel fell 4.8%. The price of conventional crude oil, the raw material used to make refined petroleum products, rose by 1.3% in January. In late December, US refinery utilization dropped as a result of severe cold weather conditions, putting upward pressure on refined product prices. The 14.1% jet fuel price increase was the largest January month-over-month increase on record, and the sixth-largest month-over-month gain overall. Jet fuel prices rose partly due to higher global travel demand, as COVID-19 travel restrictions in China were lifted. According to data from Canadian Air Transport Authority, 3.9 million passengers travelled through Canada’s eight largest airports in January, more than double the number from January 2022.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Guess what’s still going through the courts<\/a>?:<\/p>\n

Almost 20 years since harmful market-timing trading in mutual funds was first exposed by U.S. authorities, an Ontario court has found that fund managers breached their duties to investors when they failed to prevent market-timing trading by allowing hedge funds to use their funds to engage in the practice.
\n…<\/b>
\nLater, a class action was filed against the five major fund managers that had reached settlements with the Ontario Securities Commission over the practice \u2014 IG Investment Management Ltd., CI Mutual Funds Inc., Franklin Templeton Investments Corp., AGF Funds Inc. and AIC Ltd. Three of those five firms have since settled.
\n…<\/b>
\nWhile the mutual funds\u2019 prospectuses warned about the harm from frequent trading and threatened 2% fees to prevent it, \u201cthe defendants not only failed to take steps to prevent frequent trading or charge the fees set out in their prospectuses when it occurred, they facilitated frequent trading by entering into \u2018switch agreements\u2019 which allowed certain investors to switch in and out of funds for a fee of only 0.2%,\u201d the court noted.<\/p>\n

According to the court\u2019s ruling, the firms argued they weren\u2019t aware that the frequent traders were engaged in \u201ctime zone arbitrage.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, the court found that the specific form of market timing didn\u2019t matter \u2014 it was the frequent trading that harmed long-term investors.<\/p>\n

\u201cHad the defendants taken steps to prevent or prohibit frequent trading, they would have prevented time zone arbitrage as well,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the court ruled that while the fund firms were negligent, they did not breach their fiduciary duties to investors.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do not find that their negligence rises to a breach of honesty or good faith,\u201d the court said in its decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe defendants may have acted with considerable hubris in thinking that their own \u2018knowledge\u2019 of the market was superior to that of experienced, sophisticated hedge funds. They acted with a lack of knowledge that fell below the standards of care in failing to recognize the dangers of frequent short-term trading. They acted with carelessness in failing to understand what the frequent traders were telling them. They acted negligently in failing to examine past or current trading records to test their random walk thesis, but I am not persuaded that they acted in breach of their fiduciary duties,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

Based on the finding that the companies breached their duties of care, however, the court directed the case to proceed to a trial to determine investors\u2019 damages.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, I haven’t read the actual decision, so I won’t comment too much. Let’s just say that these guys were either crooked or stupid and the most surprising thing is that any of these firms are still in business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
