The friendship between the Philippines and Canada is warming up like a Tim Hortons Double Double. Because politics in North America is murky right now, to say the least, Ottawa has been looking to the rest of the world for stronger partnerships. Manila is one bright spot.

An area in which broadening bilateral ties is evident is security cooperation. Naval visits and joint exercises with the Canadians are increasing, and that’s a welcome development. With the US becoming less predictable — i.e. reliable — in most every aspect of international relations including defense cooperation, the Philippines needs credible partners to keep fending off an ever-adventurous China.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut.

She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
