BOC’s Macklem: Canada's inflation remains too high, more rate hikes needed

“Canadian inflation remains high and broad-based and more interest-rate increases will be needed to cool the overheating economy,” said Bank of Canada (BOC) Governor Tiff Macklem in a testimony at the House of Commons late Wednesday, reported Reuters.

Additional comments

We expect our policy rate will need to rise further.

How much further policy rates would need to rise will depend on how monetary policy is working to slow demand.

Inflation in Canada remains high and broad-based, reflecting large increases in both goods and services prices.

We have yet to see a generalized decline in price pressures.

Canadian economy is still in excess demand and it’s overheated.

Higher interest rates are beginning to weigh on growth.

Effects of higher rates will take time to spread through the economy.

Expect growth will stall in the next few quarters; once we get through this slowdown, growth will pick up.

We are trying to balance the risks of under- and over-tightening.

The tightening phase will come to an end, and we are getting closer, but we are not there yet.

with inflation so far above our target we are particularly concerned about the upside risks.

BOC balance sheet peaked in March 2021 at CAD575bn, as of last week it was around CAD 415bn, a drops of around 28%.

There is a risk that inflation in Canada is more embedded, more entrenched; also some possibilities that inflation could come down faster.

Expecting to see businesses pass on input price decreases as quickly to consumers as they did with increases on the way up.

USD/CAD bears take a breather

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
