New motor vehicle sales and manufacturing indicators printed softer than expected today, reflecting that a strong Canadian dollar is taking its toll on Canadian business. The quarter of a percent rate hike the Bank of Canada is proving to be effective. Further hikes are expected from the central bank, but if economic indicators continue to show a slowing economy, Bank of Canada may postpone an active policy. There are no indicators scheduled in the next 24 hours.
