We have to-date seen Riksbank and SNB move policy but with the Bank of Canada (BoC) now entering the rate cut movement \u2013 the race is now well and truly on and the interest rate differentials that come into play with currencies will ramp up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Potential for Further Cuts<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a move that surprised some analysts but aligned with market expectations, the Bank of Canada (BoC) has reduced its policy rate from 5.0% to 4.75%. It\u2019s the first time the BoC has cut rates since March 2020. It is a clear shift in thinking and reflects a much more dovish stance than anticipated. It also sends a clear willingness to further lower rates if inflation continues to ease and confidence in reaching the 2% inflation target grows.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The impact on the CAD and Canadian bonds post the decision is stark.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>USD\/CAD<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-406294\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gomarkets.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"899\" height=\"283\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(source Refinitiv)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However the post-reaction even more interesting. The spike and then sell off is a clear recognition from FX traders and fund managers that if the BoC is moving rates the Fed is not far off it either. (More on this below)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>A Dovish Turn<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what has led to the dovish turn from the BoC and what can been extrapolated to over similar geographics from the BoC Decision?<\/span><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on current domestic inflation data, headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) is expected to moderate, helped by factors such as easing mortgage costs. The primary reason for the rate cut was the slowing of core inflation and the reduction in broad-based inflation increases. We should point out that Europe, the UK and Canada are seeing this \u2013 Australia and the US not so much.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is uncertainty about whether core inflation will continue to improve as favourably in the coming months \u2013 and the more hawkish BoC watcher were keen to point this out The Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) suggest that core inflation might stabilize around 2.5-3% which is above the levels most would predict for further cuts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, history shows the BoC like most central banks never really goes \u2018one and done\u2019 it is normally coupled with two or three moves. Which again suggests CAD crosses against those economies that are not likely to see rate cuts in the coming months will benefit as the CAD falls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>South of the Board &#8211; US Economic Activity<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A weakening US labour market and economic activity are expected to spill over to Canada, potentially impacting Canadian economic growth. This development is currently not in the BoC\u2019s base case, which expects stronger growth in Canada this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BoC Governor Tiff Macklem&#8217;s comment that \u201cthere is room for growth even as inflation continues to recede\u201d suggests that officials expect a scenario of stronger growth with easing inflation in the coming months. Any deviation from this expectation towards weaker growth would likely prompt more dovish policy actions. Recent data suggests Macklem and Co. might have to rethink this view<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Data Dependence and Future Rate Decisions<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like all central bankers looking for their \u2018get out of jail free card\u2019 &#8211; BoC officials have consistently emphasised data dependence in their making decisions. Which is interesting as recent Canadian activity data, was showing strong job growth, yet this was somewhat downplayed in the decision \u2013 this could also feed into the reaction of the CAD in the hours post the decisions as the initial dovishness was evaluated with a hard lens. Employment is described as growing at a slower pace than the working-age population, a trend that has persisted even pre-pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If activity data continues to evolve as it has recently and core inflation picks up in May and June CPI data, the BoC may forego a rate cut in July. However, the base case scenario anticipates some slowing in activity and particularly weakening US data, which could result in updated growth forecasts in the July Monetary Policy Report (MPR) being less favourable than in April. This alone could lead the BoC to cut rates again in July.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Where does that leaves us?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The BoC cut to 4.75% marks a shift towards more accommodative monetary policy amidst a complex economic landscape. With inflation showing signs of moderation and potential headwinds from the US economy, the BoC remains vigilant and data dependent. Future rate decisions will hinge on the evolving economic conditions and inflation trends, with further cuts likely if the current trajectory of easing inflation and economic activity persists.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CAD now very much sits in the dovish and weaker end of the G10 currencies. That bias is unlikely to change again the likes of the AUD which is clearly sitting at the higher end of the G10 spectrum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>So that\u2019s Canada \u2013 what about Europe?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All things being equal &#8211; the European Central Bank (ECB) is poised to start cutting interest rates for the first time in nearly five years tonight.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a move well forecasted to the market it is expected to stimulate the eurozone economy that is now flirting with, or in some case already in recession.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To put this decision into some context &#8211; the ECB had previously raised its benchmark deposit rate to a historic high of 4% to combat significant inflation caused by supply side issue out of COVID and the war in Ukraine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consensus suggest that the scope of economic stimulus will depend almost purely on the extent of the total rate reductions rather than other programs the ECB has engaged in in the past. For example something that might hamper the economic recovery through rate cuts in Europe is rapid wage growth leading to high inflation limiting the number of cuts expected.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is certainly impacting the thinking of traders, the EUR has a known cut cycle in front of it \u2013 yet its holding relatively well suggesting traders are not as dovish on rates as economist and the ECB is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus it\u2019s not the announcement that traders and investors will focus on. It\u2019s the guidance from ECB president Christine Lagarde regarding future monetary policy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The stated aims currently in lowering rates is to invigorate housing markets, business investment, and consumer spending, which have been restrained by high borrowing costs. Which have significantly impacted economic activity, but with inflation pressures now easing slightly, the bank sees an opportunity to support growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is also a growing amount of evidence that is suggesting the economic behaviour of Europeans is already changing from the expected cuts. The public awareness of the cuts is boosting sentiment among households and businesses and may also mean rates don\u2019t have to move as much to stimulate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The eurozone economy showed signs of recovery in early 2023, with a GDP increase of 0.3% in the first quarter, ending a period of stagnation. This growth was largely due to subsiding energy and food price shocks coupled with a global trade recovery. But it was also aided by the anticipated rate cuts lowering mortgage and corporate loan costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Germany, house prices, which have dropped by 10% following the ECB\u2019s rate increases, have started to stabilize as mortgage rates have fallen from nearly 4% to below 3.2%. This has led to a noticeable increase in mortgage financing demand, spurring a housing market upturn.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, in the Netherlands, rising wages, housing shortages, and lower mortgage costs are expected to push house prices to new highs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And as mentioned &#8211; the eurozone&#8217;s robust labour market is contributing to persistent inflation, with wage growth hitting a record pace and unemployment reaching a low of 6.4% in April. This strength may prompt the ECB to slightly adjust its inflation and GDP growth forecasts upward \u2013 which again supports the markets view that the EUR may perform better than against a CAD for example.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus the ECB is likely to proceed cautiously with rate cuts. Influential ECB officials suggest a gradual pace, with only a few cuts anticipated this year to maintain flexibility and ensure inflation continues to decline towards the 2% target.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ECB&#8217;s approach contrasts with previous rate cuts cycles in the zone, which were typically reactions to economic crises. This time, the cuts are being made in a context of improving economic conditions, suggesting a measured approach to avoid overheating the economy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overall, while the initial rate cut is seen as a certainty, the future path of ECB policy will depend on ongoing economic developments and inflation trends, with the bank aiming to balance stimulating growth and controlling inflation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A tough fundamental backdrop for EUR traders.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FX and indices traders are now on notice \u2013 the race to restart economies is upon us.
