Standard Chartered economist Dan Pan analyzes the Bank of Canada’s 25bps rate hike to 2.5%, which came despite subdued core inflation and soft growth. The bank now expects another 25bps increase in December, taking the year-end rate to 2.75%, and sees the BoC pausing in 2027, with scope for further hikes if growth momentum is confirmed.
Scotiabank strategists Shaun Osborne and Eric Theoret say the Canadian Dollar (CAD) is flat versus the US Dollar (USD) but firmer against other commodity currencies, supported by a modestly hawkish Bank of Canada (BoC) hike.
USD/CAD attracts buyers during American trading hours on Thursday as traders digest the latest US economic data, which keeps hawkish Federal Reserve (Fed) expectations intact and supports the US Dollar (USD).
Norman Liebke at Commerzbank reports that the Bank of Canada raised rates to 2.5% and signalled a data-dependent approach. Inflation is projected above target until mid-2028, with growth risks centred on US tariffs but supported by energy investment.
Francesco Pesole at ING highlights that the Bank of Canada’s (BoC) 25bp hike to 2.50% is unlikely to be the last, with another move expected in early 2027 and risks of an earlier increase if energy prices stay high.
USD/CAD remains subdued for the second successive day, trading around 1.3990 during European hours on Thursday.
