What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Canadian home sales and prices declined in September, reflecting the impact of higher borrowing costs. Existing home sales remained subdued, though they edged 1.5% higher, with poor affordability continuing to limit transaction activity. Meanwhile, bond markets reflected U.S. developments, where stronger-than-expected inflation contributed to a flattening of the yield curve.
