Saskatoon berry update - strange times
With not much to report from the raspberry market, we can turn to the Saskatoon berry crop for a little market insight. What is strange is the reports of total market disaster from our former champions over in Vancouver and the GTA. Houses down 25% in a few months? Well, never should have been happening was drab townhouses selling outside of Toronto for $1.25 million. Those would be under $400k in Calgary. So why does the head banker feel the need to smash the market with a 0.75% interest rate increase? Trashing the housing market won’t make wheat grow, natural gas liquify and arrive in Europe, or the Japanese yen to appreciate vs the USD. And we also have the Prime Minister jetting around incessantly flipping pancakes, while back room machinations give Russia back key components to further screw with the Europe gas supply. So giving the nasty bully back a cudgel by the dumbest and most cowardly group of feckless politicians is the state of affairs. Given the macro backdrop, we should all focus again on our Saskatoon crop.
