加拿大国家银行表示,卡尔加里4月份房屋销售反弹,但尚未出现持续复苏的迹象。

By

-- 根据卡尔加里房地产委员会 (CREB) 提供的卡尔加里经济区数据,加拿大国家银行估计,经季节性调整后,3 月至 4 月的房屋销售额反弹了 6.8%,此前一个月下降了 5.9%。 尽管有所增长,但房屋销售额基本恢复到 2 月份的水平,这是自新冠疫情爆发以来最低的水平之一,但仍高于历史平均水平。加拿大国家银行上周指出。 加拿大国家银行认为,当月销售额的增长更像是此前大幅下滑后的反弹,而非上升趋势的开始。 尽管加拿大央行在秋季降息,但卡尔加里房地产市场的短期内似乎没有复苏迹象,这可能是由于持续的经济不确定性以及最近的地缘政治动荡所致。 该银行补充道,如果贸易关系改善,该地区劳动力市场的强劲表现以及消费者信心的潜在提振可能会刺激住宅市场活动。 然而,国家银行指出,近期由于通胀上升导致固定抵押贷款利率上涨,可能会限制这一复苏。

EMEA Oil Update: Crude Climbs as Traders Assess Project Freedom

Crude oil futures rose on Monday as traders showed skepticism that the US Project Freedom initiative can restore normal trade through the Strait of Hormuz.Front-month Murban crude futures rose 1.7% to $105.49 per barrel, while Brent futures were up by 2.2% to $110.59/bbl."The market is steadier at the start of the new trading week, despite continued noise around developments in the Persian Gulf," ING said.Sentiment was briefly shaken by the announcement of 'Project Freedom', a US plan to guide commercial ships out of the Strait of Hormuz.However, initial sell-offs were quickly reversed as the market looked unconvinced by the plan's scope.Analysts note that without active US Navy escorts for inbound vessels, the move likely only provides temporary relief by clearing out existing floating storage rather than restoring normal trade flows.Supply concerns are further exacerbated by a lack of progress in diplomatic channels and shifts within OPEC+.Although the group announced a 188,000 b/d supply increase for June, its first meeting since the UAE's surprise exit, market experts doubt the full volume will reach the market.Over half of the scheduled increase is tied to Persian Gulf producers currently restricted by the Strait of Hormuz blockade.With President Trump reportedly labeling Iran's latest peace proposal "unacceptable" and Tehran refusing to discuss nuclear terms until port blockades are lifted, crude prices continue to hold a significant risk premium.
