RBC Previews This Week's Merchandise Trade Data in Canada

BY MT Newswires | ECONOMIC | 03/09/26 09:15 AM EDT

09:15 AM EDT, 03/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Canada will publish its international merchandise trade data for Janaury on Thursday, said RBC.

Canada's January merchandise trade balance is expected to show exports and imports slowed following stronger readings late last year, noted the bank.

Energy prices surged in January, which likely drove much of the movement in the trade balance, given Canada's role as a major energy exporter, stated RBC.

At the same time, motor vehicle production appears to have softened early in the year, consistent with signals from Statistics Canada's advance manufacturing indicators, although a jump in December production could see exports rising with a lag in January, added the bank.

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.
