Quick Glance: Canadian Inflation Rises Due to Increase in Gasoline Prices
- Canadian consumer prices saw a slight increase, primarily due to higher gasoline prices. Core metrics indicated further progress in disinflation, prompting the central bank to prepare for a shift to looser monetary policy as early as June or July.
- In March, the consumer price index rose by 2.9% compared to the previous year, up from the 2.8% reported a month earlier. Excluding gasoline, the index slowed to 2.8% from the previous year, in contrast to February's 2.9%.
- However, indications of underlying price pressures decreased. The averages of the Bank of Canada's two core measures decreased to an annual rate of 2.95%, weaker than anticipated. Following the release, yields on two-year Canadian government bonds dropped by approximately 10 basis points to 4.18%.
- The March inflation data suggest that the decline in core metrics this year is not temporary. Bank of Canada officials are now waiting to be convinced that the path to the 2% target can be sustained before making adjustments to monetary policy.
