The Bank of Canada's July 15, 2026 decision to hold the overnight rate at 2.25% for a sixth consecutive meeting, paired with futures markets pricing in negligible odds of a September 2 move, reflects trader consensus around contained inflation pressures and a gradually improving but still sub-capacity economy. Core CPI measures near the 2% target, limited pass-through from elevated energy prices tied to geopolitical factors, and anchored long-term expectations have reinforced the Bank's patient stance, with GDP forecasts showing modest rebound without immediate policy adjustment. This positioning aligns with the current policy rate path since late 2025 and forward-looking data indicating inflation easing toward 2% by early 2027. A material upside surprise in upcoming CPI or labor reports, or sharper-than-expected growth acceleration, could introduce volatility, though such shifts remain low-probability given recent releases.

This market will resolve according to the change in basis points in the target for the overnight rate resulting from the September 2026 interest rate announcement of the Bank of Canada, relative to the level it was prior to this announcement.
The resolution source will be official information from the Bank of Canada, including the statement or release from its September 2026 interest rate announcement, scheduled for September 2, 2026, as listed on the official Bank of Canada calendar (https://www.bankofcanada.ca/core-functions/monetary-policy/key-interest-rate/#target-dates). This market may resolve as soon as the statement or release of the Bank of Canada resulting from its September 2026 interest rate decision with relevant data is issued.
If the specified rate is defined by an upper and lower bound, the relevant change will be the change to the upper bound.
If the specified rate is changed to a level not expressed in the displayed options, the change will be rounded according to the following guidelines. Increases or decreases of less than 25 bps will be rounded to 25 bps (e.g. an increase or decrease of 10 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 25 bps). Increases or decreases of greater than 25 bps will be rounded to the nearest 25 bps and will be rounded away from 0 in cases of equidistance (e.g., an increase or decrease of 37.5 bps would be considered to be an increase or decrease of 50 bps). Displayed options of “Increase” or “Decrease” will include policy rate increases or decreases of any size.
If the specified announcement is postponed to a date and time before the start of the next scheduled announcement, this market will resolve based on the outcome of that postponed announcement. If the specified announcement is cancelled, or postponed such that no decision is announced by the start of the next scheduled announcement, this market will resolve to the “No Change” bracket.
