Scotiabank Previews Monday's CPI Data in Canada

BY MT Newswires | ECONOMIC | 12/15/25 08:00 AM EST

08:00 AM EST, 12/15/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Canada will release one of two consumer price index readings ahead of the next Bank of Canada meeting on Jan. 28 on Monday at 8:30 a.m. ET, Bank of Montreal (BMO) said.

While the data could move markets, Scotiabank said it does not expect any major policy implications, with the BoC signaling a prolonged pause and a more forward-looking stance.

The November reading out on Monday is expected to post a soft headline gain of 0.1%-0.2% month-over-month seasonally unadjusted, which would leave the year-over-year rate around 2.25%, stated the bank.

Key will be the core measures, added Scotiabank. They're not exactly "cool" as in month-over-month terms and seasonally adjusted at annual rates.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
