Canada’s 10-year government bond yield rose above the 3.2% mark, the highest in almost two months, as investors continued to brace for aggressive rate hikes by major central banks. Hawkish remarks by Federal Reserve policymakers and somewhat upbeat economic data out of the US strengthened bets that the central bank will remain on its aggressive tightening path for the time being. The market movement came ahead of the Bank of Canada monetary policy meeting later this week, with markets expecting another mammoth rate hike as the central bank seeks to tame sky-high inflation. Money markets are now pricing in a 75 bps rate increase, bringing borrowing costs to 3.25%.
Historically, the Canada Government Bond 10Y reached an all time high of 12.44 in March of 1985. Canada Government Bond 10Y - data, forecasts, historical chart - was last updated on September of 2022.
