BoC: Inflation data seen as neutral – Danske Bank

Danske Research Team notes that Canadian headline inflation rose to 2.4% year-on-year in March, slightly below expectations, while core measures stayed stable. Governor Macklem is not worried about a temporary rise in inflation expectations, and the bank expects next week’s Bank of Canada (BoC) meeting to deliver a rate hold, consistent with current market pricing.
