Macklem signals higher inflation forecast as oil shock tests Bank of Canada’s hold
Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem said Saturday the central bank will likely raise its inflation forecast at its Oct. 28 rate decision, with Brent crude trading near $110 USD against the $75 the bank assumed in July. Inflation has since edged higher: Statistics Canada reported Monday that consumer prices rose 3.1 percent year over year in September, up from 3 percent in August. Macklem said the bank cannot move today’s prices and must judge where inflation sits a year out—but economists argue a benchmark rate parked at 2.25 percent for seven straight decisions leaves little room to wait if oil stays near $100 USD and the Middle East conflict keeps the Strait of Hormuz closed. Speaking to reporters on a conference call from the International Monetary Fund and World Bank annual meetings in Bangkok, Macklem signalled that events have overtaken the bank’s July outlook. That forecast had inflation easing to about 2.5 percent in the second half of the year. Instead, the headline rate held at 3 percent through July and August before ticking up in September.
