Analyst: If core inflation falls, the Canadian dollar may weaken.
Jin10 data reported on August 19, FP Markets analyst Aaron Hill stated in a report that if the data released later today indicates an unexpected decline in Canada’s core inflation for July, the Canadian dollar may weaken. He pointed out: "If the core inflation indicator falls below 3.0%, it may prompt investors to increase their bets on interest rate cuts, thereby putting pressure on the Canadian dollar." LSEG data shows that the market currently expects a 31% chance of the Central Bank of Canada cutting rates by 25 basis points at the September meeting, with a 69% chance of maintaining the interest rate.
