Martin Pelletier(@MPelletierCIO):My @financialpost this week. Why Canadian investors should worry about the Jekyll-and-Hyde U.S. economy. Away from the AI headlines, much of Main Street America is hurting. Consumers are becoming increasingly selective with their spending after years of elevated inflation eroded purchasing power. Just as conditions appeared to be stabilizing, the conflict with Iran sent energy prices sharply higher, once again squeezing household budgets.
