Canada Fell Into a Recession? Not So Fast. What It Means for America

Canada fell into a recession, so could the US economy be next? Capital Nexus breaks down Canada’s recession revision, US jobs data, 3.7% inflation, Fed rate hike odds and the October 28 central bank decisions for American households. Inside this analysis: how Canada’s technical recession vanished after a revision, with second-quarter growth of 3.3%, why Canada still lost about 110,000 jobs in two months, and why US hiring slowed to just 29,000 jobs in September. We cover the Sahm rule, stagflation fears, the Fed’s first hike since 2023, the Bank of Canada’s dilemma, and three scenarios for the US economy: soft landing, stagflation-lite and hard landing. Plus what it means for your borrowing costs, savings, paycheck and portfolio. Subscribe to Capital Nexus for data-driven finance analysis and turn on notifications.
