We had a net securities inflow of $58B in October, the fourth straight - with $47B of foreign investment and $12B of Canadian divestment abroad…

… which comes after eight months of investment in a row. The outflow was concentrated to U.S. exposure, with $6B of selling in equities…

… while foreign investors added Canadian equity exposure for a second straight month ($13B), concentrated in resources and financial services names.

The demand for Canadian paper keeps humming along, this time to the tune of $34B - spread across both public and private issuers.
