-- 周四，原油价格上涨，触及四年高位，原因是市场担忧中东地区的敌对行动可能再次爆发，并延长该地区的供应中断。 布伦特原油价格最新上涨2.9%，至每桶121.48美元；西德克萨斯中质原油价格上涨1.5%，至每桶108.51美元。此前，路透社周四报道称，Axios援引匿名消息人士的话报道称，美国总统特朗普将听取关于对伊朗实施一系列军事打击计划的简报，以推动伊朗重返核问题谈判。 此外，路透社援引一位白宫官员的话报道称，特朗普还与石油公司讨论了如何减轻美国可能实施长达数月的封锁所带来的影响。 报道指出，油价持续上涨可能导致全球通胀再次飙升，并推高燃油价格。路透社援引石油经纪公司PVM的约翰·埃文斯的话说：“如果你认为布伦特原油价格没有潜力达到每桶150美元，那你现在最好别再往下看了。” IG市场分析师托尼·西卡莫尔在一份报告中指出：“伊朗冲突近期内得到解决或霍尔木兹海峡重新开放的前景依然黯淡。”

Canada's Economy Remains on "Shaky Grounds" Based On GDP, While Payroll Data "Paint An Even More Fragile Picture", Says Desjardins
Today's GDP data showed Canada's economy remained on "shaky ground" through the first quarter of 2026, while today's payroll data "paint an even more fragile picture" of the economy, said Royce Mendes over at Desjardins.While Canadian gross domestic product advanced 0.2% month over month in February, in line with consensus, growth tailed off in March, while Statistics Canada's flash estimate points to a flat reading for the final month of Q1. Both the Desjardins quarterly estimate for GDP by expenditure and GDP by industry are tracking an annualized advance of roughly 1.5%, which is consistent with the Bank of Canada's most recent projection, Mendes noted.Given the weak handoff, Desjardins agrees with the central bank's forecast for another quarter of roughly 1.5% growth in Q2, he said.The Survey of Employment, Payrolls and Hours Payroll (SEPH) data, also released Thursday, showed the economy shed 60,000 jobs in February, more than reversing the increase of 44,000 positions in January.Weakness was relatively broad-based across categories, with losses seen in both trade-exposed and non-trade-exposed sectors. In the past few months, Ontario and Quebec have led the way lower, Mendes noted."The GDP and payroll data released today are consistent with an economy unlikely to produce excess inflationary pressures," Mendes said, before adding: "Should oil prices decline in the coming months, the Bank of Canada can remain on the sidelines, confident that the temporary effects of higher oil prices will not generate a sustained period of high inflation."
