Taking the temperature of small business
When you think “high prices,” you might think of stressed family budgets. But small businesses have to pay up too.

Also in this episode: New labor data could signal that interest-rate cuts are imminent, snack companies cook up Ozempic-friendly treats and Canada steps into the crude oil supplier spotlight.
