标准普尔/多伦多证交所综合指数周三小幅上涨,收于29322点,投资者消化了加拿大银行和美联储普遍预期的25个基点的降息,并权衡了每家银行的前瞻性指引。在国内,新的数据表明劳动力市场疲软和经济增长放缓,强化了进一步宽松的预期,并促使市场为降低利率制定了更明确的路径。与此同时,美联储降息25个基点,其预测表明今年将再降息两次,但对实际增长、失业率下降和核心通胀上调的更强劲预测,缓和了对更陡峭宽松周期的押注。行业走势喜忧参半,矿商和银行领涨,巴里克矿业上涨约2.3%,道明银行上涨约0.8%,而星座软件下跌1.7%,加拿大太平洋和加拿大国民银行各下跌0.9%。
The S&P/TSX Composite edged marginally higher to close at 29,322 level on Wednesday as investors absorbed the widely expected 25 basis point cuts by both the Bank of Canada and the US Federal Reserve and weighed each bank's forward guidance. Domestically, fresh data pointing to a weakening labour market and slowing growth reinforced expectations of further easing and prompted markets to price a clearer path to lower rates. Meanwhile, the US Fed cut by 25 bps and its projections flagged two additional cuts this year, but stronger forecasts for real growth, a lower unemployment path and upward revisions to core inflation tempered bets on a steeper easing cycle. Sector moves were mixed with miners and banks leading gains, Barrick Mining up about 2.3% and TD Bank adding roughly 0.8%, while Constellation Software fell 1.7% and Canadian Pacific and Canadian National lost 0.9% each.
