Deutsche Bank Says It's Bearish on Canadian Dollar as the Bank of Canada May Cut Rates

BY MT Newswires | ECONOMIC | 02/19/26 12:33 PM EST

12:33 PM EST, 02/19/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Canada stands in stark contrast with Australia as its population actually shrank in Q3, after robust growth for years, said Deutsche Bank.

The Canadian government is prioritizing capital expenditure, but it's yet to show up as business surveys point to growth staying "soggy," noted the bank.

Canada also has about the "softest" export growth in the world, it added.

The inflation pulse is now softening, which could lead to another Bank of Canada cut, according to the bank.

Deutsche Bank pointed out it's bearish on the Canadian dollar.

All Fixed Income News

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.
