When the world was mad for commodities, Canada was heralded a shining star on the global stage. Our currency soared and our Central Bank head was courted (and drafted by the UK!) like an Allstar athlete.

Ah well, humility training is important character development. And understanding and anticipating full market cycles is key to lasting financial success.
