Bank of Canada likely to lead the U.S. Fed in rate cuts
Quick Glance: Bank of Canada Likely to Lead U.S. Fed in Rate Cuts
  • The Bank of Canada is likely to move ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve on its first rate cut, as tepid economic growth and cooling inflation are priming up conditions to ease borrowing rates sooner, economists and analysts said.

  • Canada may also need deeper cuts in the current cycle, since the economy is much more sensitive to interest rates due to its household debt, which as a percentage of net disposable income is the highest among G7 countries.

  • Canada is expected to cut more aggressively over a longer time frame than its neighbor.

  • Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem has said that despite two back-to-back soft inflation prints, underlying price pressures in the economy still persisted and it was still too early to consider a cut.

Quick Glance: Melting Ice Slows Earth's Rotation, Affecting Time
  • A new study reveals that ice loss due to climate change has slightly slowed the Earth's rotation and could impact time measurement.

  • Researchers found that the melting of polar ice - a trend accelerated by human-induced climate change - has caused the Earth to spin less quickly than it naturally would.

  • The study suggests that human influence has disrupted a force that has been considered a constant for millennia, delaying the possibility of a 'negative leap second.'

  • Melting polar ice has counteracted the trend, postponing any decision on a negative leap second by three years.

Annual inflation rose to 3.2 percent in February, hotter than expected
Quick Glance: Inflation Decline and Consumer Impact
  • Inflation in Germany continues to decline, primarily due to cheaper energy prices. Experts predict a further decrease in the year ahead, but with potential challenges. Higher inflation rates diminish consumer purchasing power.

  • In February, energy and fuels decreased in price, while food prices increased. Services also became more expensive. Consumer prices rose by 0.4 percent compared to the previous month.

  • The German government forecasts rising consumer prices and wage increases above the inflation rate. The expectation is that employees will spend the money and boost private consumption. However, the Bundesbank President warns against premature interest rate cuts.

  • Despite the decline in inflation, the Bundesbank cautions against premature interest rate cuts. The European Central Bank aims for price stability in the medium term. Higher interest rates can curb demand but also burden the economy.

Quick Glance: French Senators Reject EU-Canada Free-Trade Deal
  • France's Sénat overwhelmingly voted against a free-trade agreement between the EU and Canada due to a unique alliance opposing President Macron.

  • The rejection of the CETA agreement, which has been provisionally in force since 2017, does not affect its application.

  • While a setback for the government, the no-vote does not nullify the agreement, requiring official EU notification for effectiveness.

  • Opposition to the pact mainly centered around food safety concerns, criticizing Canada's standards compared to the EU.
