The inflation data for January, due for publication today, is likely to once again underpin the necessity of a rate step by the Bank of Canada (BoC). This should underpin the Canadian dollar in the long-term, in the view of economists at ING.
“The January CPI report in Canada today should see headline inflation stabilise marginally below 5.0%, while core measures may see a mild acceleration. All this should continue to underpin the need for the BoC to tighten policy quite aggressively in 2022.”
“We expect USD/CAD to hover around 1.2700 this week, but we continue to see downside risks prevailing in the longer run as the BoC tightening cycle should offer support to the loonie.”
