The yield on Canada’s 10-year government bond fell to about 3.60% from an over one-month high of 3.66% on July 23rd as the oil rally paused, easing energy-driven inflation concerns. Meanwhile, Canada’s annual inflation rate eased to 2.8% in June 2026 from 3.2% in May, slightly below forecasts of 2.9%. Gasoline prices increased at a slower pace, while the Bank of Canada’s preferred core inflation measures fell to their lowest levels in more than five years, reinforcing the BoC’s view that higher energy costs stemming from the Middle East oil supply crisis are not spreading broadly throughout the economy. The softer inflation data also reduced expectations of further Bank of Canada interest rate hikes this year.
