标准普尔/多伦多证交所综合指数周五小幅下跌0.1%,收于26175点,在周三创下历史新高后第二天小幅回落。下降之际,强于预期的经济数据强化了加拿大央行将在下周会议上保持利率稳定的预期。加拿大第一季度国内生产总值年化增长率为2.2%,超过了1.7%的增长预测。然而,大部分扩张是由出口和商业库存的前期增加推动的,部分原因是对美国潜在关税的预期,而在持续的经济不确定性和高利率的滞后影响下,国内需求仍然疲软。稳健的数据促使利率交易员加大了对暂停宽松政策的押注。在繁忙的财报周之后,银行股涨跌互现:加拿大皇家银行、加拿大帝国商业银行和加拿大丰业银行各上涨约0.5%,而道明银行则小幅下跌。本周,多伦多证交所上涨0.6%。
The S&P/TSX Composite edged lower by 0.1% to close at the 26,175 mark on Friday, pulling back slightly for second day after hitting a record high on Wednesday. The decline came as stronger-than-expected economic data reinforced expectations that the Bank of Canada will hold interest rates steady at its meeting next week. Canada’s GDP grew at an annualized rate of 2.2% in the first quarter, outpacing forecasts of 1.7% growth. However, much of the expansion was driven by a front-loading of exports and business inventories—partly in anticipation of potential US tariffs—while domestic demand remained soft amid ongoing economic uncertainty and the lagging effects of high interest rates. The solid data prompted rate traders to increase bets on a pause in policy easing. Bank stocks were mixed following a busy earnings week: RBC, CIBC, and Scotiabank each rose around 0.5%, while TD Bank edged lower. For the week, the TSX advanced 0.6%.
