Five things to watch for in the Canadian business world in the coming week – Winnipeg Free Press

TORONTO – Five things to watch in the Canadian business world in the coming week:

Bank of Canada

The Bank of Canada is expected to release its Business Outlook Survey and Canadian Survey of Consumer Expectations on Monday. The central bank cut interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point last month to 2.5 percent, saying the balance of risks had shifted toward the downside. It said the economy had weakened and while there were still some mixed signals, inflation pressures appeared more subdued.

Inflation

Statistics Canada will release inflation data for September on Tuesday. The consumer price index rose 1.9% year-on-year in August, compared with a 1.7% year-on-year rise in July.

Test results

It is expected that Teck Resources Ltd. will release third-quarter results on Wednesday before financial markets open. Last month, Teck announced a merger agreement with British miner Anglo American PLC, but the deal is still subject to review under the Investment Canada Act.
