Tightening monetary policy slows price growth by reducing overall demand, slowing cost increases and raising competitive pressure on firms. But high inflation expectations may encourage large price increases if firms believe that cost growth will remain high after a tightening of monetary policy. If left unchecked, high inflation and elevated inflation expectations could cause a wage-price spiral, anchoring high inflation with harmful economic consequences.1 Because of this risk, understanding whether high inflation expectations are influencing firms\u2019 price-setting behaviour is critical to know for an inflationtargeting central bank.<\/p>\n<p>We investigate whether the recent period of high inflation has changed how Canadian firms set prices for their products and services.<br \/>\n<b>&#8230;<\/b><br \/>\nWe find little evidence that firms\u2019 price setting is directly based on high inflation expectations. However, we find that widespread growth in input prices during a period of strong customer demand and reduced competition may have contributed to price increases that were larger than usual. This may explain some of the inflationary pressure observed in 2021 and early 2022. Furthermore, early evidence suggests that in the second half of 2022, price-setting behaviour was gradually returning to pre-pandemic practices, supporting a path for inflation to return to the inflation-control target range. However, the risk remains that high inflation may start to be reflected directly in output prices, which would make it more difficult for monetary policy to reduce inflation.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>OMERS <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/business\/article-omers-pension-fund-earnings-2022\/\">had a good year<\/a> &#8230; as long as their valuation of private equity is accurate!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The return OMERS reported for 2022 fell short of an internal benchmark of 7.2 per cent that was set at the end of 2021, when market conditions looked rosier. But it compares favourably with widespread investment losses across the sector after stock and bond prices plunged in the first half of last year.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Quebec-based pension giant Caisse de d\u00e9p\u00f4t et placement du Qu\u00e9bec reported a 5.6-per-cent loss in 2022. On average, Canadian defined pension plans performed much worse, with an average annual loss of 10.3 per cent, as measured by a typical mix of publicly held stocks and bonds tracked by Royal Bank of Canada\u2019s RBC I&amp;TS All Plan Universe.<br \/>\n<b>&#8230;<\/b><br \/>\nOver 10 years, OMERS has averaged returns of 7.5 per cent, after expenses, which beat its multiyear benchmark of 7.4 per cent. The fund had assets of $124.2-billion as of Dec. 31, up from $119.5-billion at the end of June.<br \/>\n<b>&#8230;<\/b><br \/>\nThough OMERS suffered losses in its equity and bond portfolios, which fell 5.4 per cent for the year, they were offset by returns from its investments in private assets, which include infrastructure, real estate and private equity.<\/p>\n<p>Private equity investments returned 13.7 per cent, ahead of an internal benchmark of 11.2 per cent, and the companies OMERS invests in through the portfolio broadly held their valuations during the year. Infrastructure investments gained 12.5 per cent, beating a 7.7-per-cent benchmark. And real estate investments gained 13.6 per cent, topping a 7.1-per-cent benchmark.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Canaccord shareholders <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/business\/article-canaccord-management-buyout\/\">want more money<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A special committee of Canaccord Genuity Inc.\u2019s CF-T +0.79%increase<br \/>\nboard of directors has said a bid to take the independent Canadian investment bank private is too low, after a group of the company\u2019s senior leaders officially launched the takeover attempt early Monday.<\/p>\n<p>More than 50 members of the company\u2019s management team, including chief executive Dan Daviau and board chair David Kassie, first announced plans last month to collectively launch the takeover bid, for $11.25 a share. The management group\u2019s offer values the company at roughly $1.13-billion, despite a subsequent valuation prepared by Royal Bank of Canada RY-T +0.60%increase<br \/>\nfor the special committee that found Canaccord to be worth significantly more.<\/p>\n<p>While the offer price represents a nearly 42-per-cent premium over the 20-day average price of Canaccord\u2019s stock as of Jan. 6 \u2013 the last trading day before the management group announced its intention to take the company private \u2013 it is roughly 32 per cent below Canaccord\u2019s November, 2021, value of $16.52 a share. Canaccord stock has been consistently trading above the proposed offer price since the planned takeover bid was made public on Jan. 9, suggesting investors expect the initial offer price to rise.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>My Facebook feed lit up today with people as far south as Montana, Wyoming and Illinois posting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/02\/27\/world\/europe\/northern-lights-uk.html\">glorious, once-in-a-lifetime shots of the Aurora Borealis<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Pictures shared online showed a bright green glow that seemed to be radiating from the grassy hilltops of Scotland. Others showed pink shades filling the sky behind the Neolithic site of Stonehenge in England and above the sharp cliffs on the coast of Ireland. The northern lights were seen across Sussex and Wales; above a cemetery; and from bedroom windows, backyards, a university and even planes.<\/p>\n<p>It is quite common for northern lights to be spotted in Scotland and parts of Northern England, but it is much rarer to see them in southern parts of England. The display on Sunday was one of the best in a very long time, according to the BBC\u2019s weather watchers, a crowdsourced weather club.<br \/>\n<b>&#8230;<\/b><br \/>\nThe northern lights are produced by charged particles from the sun that hit Earth\u2019s magnetic field. They are generally visible by the poles, but if the geomagnetic storm is particularly strong, the particles can travel farther south, experts told The New York Times this year.<\/p>\n<p>The European Space Agency said that Sunday night, an expulsion of material from the sun arrived at Earth just as a high-speed solar wind stream whipped through the space around our planet.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here&#8217;s one of my favourites, taken last night in Red Lake, Ontario:<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><a
