加拿大丰业银行对周一公布的加拿大消费者物价指数(CPI)数据进行预估

By

-- 加拿大丰业银行表示,加拿大将于周一上午8:30(美国东部时间)更新3月份消费者价格指数。 该银行指出,市场普遍预期未经季节性调整的环比涨幅为1.1%,而该行自身预测为0.9%。 丰业银行指出,市场预期区间为0.9%至1.3%。同比涨幅的预测区间为2.4%(丰业银行)至2.8%,中位数为2.6%。 该银行表示,分析师普遍看好环比涨幅,认为汽油和燃料价格上涨是主要驱动因素,此外还有典型的季节性因素。同比涨幅也受到去年4月取消碳税消费者部分基数效应的影响。 加拿大丰业银行补充道,即便在伊朗战争和商品价格上涨可能传导至通胀因素出现之前,核心通胀指标的疲软期也被认为可能是暂时的。核心工业价格已经飙升,并引领了核心CPI通胀。 该银行表示,近几个月来核心指标的下滑并非史无前例——2024年初也曾出现过类似的情况。各项指标并非完全一致,因为传统的核心通胀率通常“偏高”。

EMEA Oil Update: Oil Future Extend Rally as Diplomatic Hopes Fade

Crude oil prices climbed Monday after efforts to revive US-Iran peace talks in Pakistan collapsed over the weekend, effectively erasing hopes for a near-term resumption of energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz.The Brent futures contract gained 2.1% to $107.57 per barrel. Murban closed at $103.59 on April 24 and was not trading as of the time of publishing this oil price update."Oil is trading stronger this morning after attempts to get US-Iran peace talks back on track broke down, erasing hopes for a resumption of energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz anytime soon," ING analysts said.The diplomatic cooling began when President Donald Trump abruptly cancelled a planned trip to Islamabad for top envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, reportedly stating there was no point "sitting around talking about nothing."This withdrawal coincided with the arrival of Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Pakistan, though no direct engagement occurred.The subsequent impact on supply is stark. Bloomberg ship tracking data revealed that only two chemical tankers and one LPG carrier left the Persian Gulf on Friday.Meanwhile ANZ analysts noted that the US blockade continues to sideline about 1.7 million barrels per day of Iranian exports.Despite the breakdown, some market volatility was tempered by reports from Axios and ING suggesting Iran has submitted a fresh proposal via Pakistani mediators.This offer reportedly proposes reopening the waterway and de-escalating the conflict while delaying nuclear negotiations to a later stage."However, there are newswire reports this morning that Iran has offered the US a new proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, while delaying nuclear negotiations for a later stage," ING noted.
