December purchases and useful links

January 2, 2023

This post originally appeared in my newsletter.

Too soon to tell how these will work out:

  • Bancolombia (CIB)
  • Grupo Aval (AVAL)

Politics will drive returns here. Interesting note: Scotiabank has operations in Colombia and they don’t seem to be able to compete with the top players in the market.

These Purpose Investments cash ETFs are all yielding over 2% these days.

Forced selling is coming to the Toronto condo market.

Tax brackets are changing in 2023.

Illiquid investments in a liquid wrapper don’t seem to work very well.

Seemed like the right book to pull off the shelf given the state of the world. Give me a few days and I’ll be able to spew uninformed bank hot takes with the best of them.

It's rather incredible that you can run up a $50 billion deficit amid relatively good economic times, and military, health care, housing and any number of other basic metrics remain a disaster, and will remain so into the future.

Canada’s budget gets a big fat F. The tax bite expands. Spending out of control – an added $42bn in the next 5 yrs brings the cumulative burst since 2021 to $345bn! FY24 deficit’s to balloon to $40bn from last Fall’s estimate of $30.6bn and debt/GDP ratio up to 43.5% from 42.4%.
