Canada's June CPI Rises 2.8%, Missing 2.9% Forecast Amid Oil Price Decline

GAS0.83%
According to Statistics Canada, Canada's June consumer price index (CPI) rose 2.8% year-over-year on July 20, missing market expectations of 2.9% and declining 0.4 percentage points from May's 3.2%. The softer inflation was driven by a decline in gasoline prices, which fell 10.2% month-over-month as international oil prices stabilized following diplomatic negotiations. However, travel-related services surged due to North American World Cup hosting, with hotel accommodation rising 10.2% and airline fares climbing 9.6%.
