Inflation Stays Below 3% and Aritzia Rebounds

View descriptionShare

In this episode of The Canadian Investor, we analyze the Canadian Consumer Price Index (CPI) for June 2024, which saw a headline CPI drop to 2.7% year-over-year, with notable changes in food, shelter, services, and energy prices. We also discuss the acquisition of Heroux Devtek by a private equity firm for $1.35 billion, reflecting a 28% premium.

Next, we review MTY Food Group's earnings, which revealed slight declines in revenue and system sales, alongside efforts to reduce debt and interest expenses. Aritzia reported a strong first quarter with 7.8% revenue growth, driven by U.S. operations and improved margins.

We preview BlackRock's anticipated 8% revenue increase, driven by higher assets under management, and cover Goodfood's ongoing struggles with declining revenue and a shrinking customer base despite improved profitability.

Tickers of Stocks & ETF discussed: MTY.TO, ATZ.TO, BLK, FOOD.TO
