Trump met Carney — and on the surface, nothing happened. No new tariffs, no clear trade progress… just smiles and handshakes. But while everyone focused on political optics, bond yields quietly continued to fall, signaling a major shift for Canadian homeowners and anyone locked into a high fixed-rate mortgage.
In this episode of Make Money Count, Marcus and Justin break down:
- Why "nothing happened" might actually be a good thing
- The real mortgage implications hidden behind the Trump-Carney meeting
- How bond yields are signaling faster rate cuts
- Why waiting for a Bank of Canada update could cost you thousands
- Fixed vs Variable — how to know if now’s the time to break your mortgage
If your mortgage rate starts with a 5, this episode could be your wake-up call. Don’t wait for the market to tell you what to do — run your numbers before the opportunity is priced out.
