Amber Kanwar's Weekly Setup: Canadian inflation and big box retail earnings
This is the first time all summer that my husband and I have gotten away, just the two of us. It is not really for leisure: He's on a work trip and I'm typing on a beach. There is also fallout from Air Canada's labour dispute that could mean navigating a hellscape of travel upon our return. It's funny what passes as a vacation these days. Here are five things to know this week: (CP)I of the storm: With few earnings reports in Canada, inflation will be the main reason for traders to show up to work this week. The Bank of Canada will get its second last look at headline and core inflation on Tuesday morning before the next interest rate decision in September. Headline inflation is expected to cool thanks to lower shelter and gasoline prices. However, core inflation is expected to remain sticky at 3 per cent. We learned last week that the central bank decided to hold interest rates at its last meeting precisely because core inflation remains elevated – it has been above 3 per cent for three months now. 'The BoC needs to see at least a couple of months (and probably three) of decelerating inflation before further rate cuts are on the table,' wrote Benjamin Reitzes, managing director for Canadian rates and macro strategist at Bank of Montreal Capital Markets. Inflation will be a hot topic at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium taking place in Wyoming toward the end of the week. Nearing the end of his term, Jerome Powell will give his remarks for the last time as Federal Reserve Chair. Investors will want to know how Mr. Powell is feeling about inflation after last week's data produced mixed results: lower consumer prices and significantly higher producer prices. The recent softness in the U.S. labour market may be the tipping point with investors betting on a September rate cut. Big box: Walmart Inc. is trading around record highs, while Target Corp. is languishing around a five-year low, and this week we will get a closer look at how these two big-box retailers are faring. While the two companies seem similar on the surface, grocery and everyday low prices have put Walmart in the pole position. But it also means that investors are now paying nearly 40 times earnings for Walmart compared to just 14 times for Target. Having said that, Walmart reports this Thursday and is expected to show an 11-per-cent increase in profit compared to a 23-per-cent drop for Target, which will report on Wednesday. Bank of America doesn't recommend getting lured in by Target's cheap valuation. 'Target is falling behind peers and has tougher challenges,' wrote Robert Ohmes, a senior research analyst at the bank, in an Aug 15. note downgrading Target to underperform ahead of earnings. Mr. Ohmes said Target's compounding sales growth has fallen below Walmart, as Walmart's online sales 'meaningfully outpace' those of Target. Aside from comparing the two, investors will be eyeing what the earnings say about the consumer spending outlook: If nothing else, it may offer a more accurate picture than numbers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, where former commissioner Erika McEntarfer was recently fired by U.S. President Donald Trump. Building blocks: Home Depot Inc. and Lowe's Companies Inc. have been on a tear with both retailers' stocks up about 20 per cent over the last few months. Earnings this week will be a test of whether the enthusiasm around housing is warranted. It is no secret that the U.S. housing market has been in a funk coming off the trading-spaces hype, post-pandemic. Hopes are high that things are starting to turn around. Estimates for comparable sales growth are sitting at a three-year high. Royal Bank of Canada is warning that might be too lofty, in a preview note to clients. 'We're expecting modest comp misses for both names,' wrote Steven Shemesh, equity research analyst at RBC Capital Markets. However, he acknowledges that the buy-side might be prepared for that. Cyberstalking: Palo Alto Networks Inc. will have a chance to calm some nerves when it reports Monday. The cybersecurity giant plunged after announcing a US$25-billion deal to buy Israel's CyberArk in a cash and stock deal at the end of July. Investors are also nervous about volatile tech spending and how that might affect their forecast. Earnings from rivals haven't been a clean sweep and that is putting investors on edge. 'Despite our expectations of a solid quarter, we think shares will likely trade sideways in the near-term, given a combination of a potentially conservative guide, along with long-only investors not rushing to jump into the name,' wrote Adam Borg, managing director of equity research with Stifel, in a preview note to clients.

B.C. canola growers brace for new Chinese tariffs as harvest approaches
B.C. canola farmers are staring down millions in losses after China slapped new anti-dumping duties on Canadian canola just weeks before harvest begins. The retaliatory 75.8 per cent tariff on canola seed is the latest volley in the ongoing trade fight between the two countries. While farmers brace for the hit, experts are asking whether Canada's own 100 per cent tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles (EVs) are worth the cost, and if they should be scrapped in hopes China will reverse its canola tariff. Ernest Wiebe, who farms 800 acres of canola in Montney near Fort St. John, B.C., says producers are feeling discouraged by a recent drop in price for their crops. The price per bushel had been $15 to $16 earlier this year, but it's since dropped to about $12.50 to $13.20 a bushel, Wiebe said. And it's a long way off from the highs of $27 a bushel seen in 2022. "With all the uncertainty and stress of tariffs, and anti-dumping duties, we have seen a significant slide in our prices," he said. Doing the math A price drop by about $3 per bushel can wipe out between $120 and $180 an acre, depending on yield, according to Wiebe, who sits on the board of the Canadian Canola Growers Association. For the roughly 290 producers in the Peace Region, who seed up to 110,000 acres a year and grow 95 per cent of B.C.'s canola, that's a massive hit. Most of the crop is bound for China, where it's crushed and processed into cooking oil. Meanwhile, input costs keep climbing. Fertilizer alone is up $200 a metric ton this year, Wiebe said, on top of higher bills for land, fuel, equipment, and taxes. The growing price gap could mean tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, in losses for the average farmer, and millions for B.C.'s economy. WATCH | Canola farmers brace for tariff impact: Chinese tariffs on Canadian canola have farmers bracing for the worst 3 days ago A new Chinese tariff of over 75 per cent on Canadian canola seed takes effect today, effectively closing Canada's biggest export market for the product. The tariffs are an escalation in a mounting trade dispute between the two countries. "Overall, farmers [are] incredibly discouraged, and looking at it and going, 'Well, how are we going to make this all work?'" said Wiebe. B.C. growers are hoping for an average or slightly above-average crop this year. But a very dry May followed by late June rains has delayed maturity, raising the risk that bad weather — possibly even snow — could interfere with harvest. Pressure on Ottawa Werner Antweiler, an associate professor at University of British Columbia's Sauder School of Business, says he is worried about farmers suffering the consequences of "arbitrary" Canadian tariffs. The canola tariffs came after Canada's 100 per cent tariffs on Chinese EVs, and Antweiler says the EV tariffs weren't based on a proper investigation under World Trade Organization (WTO) principles. "We should definitely revisit this issue and, in that way, also maybe reduce the countervailing duties that we now see on canola exports." Stuart Smyth, a professor of agriculture and resource economics at the University of Saskatchewan, believes China's new tariffs are a strategic move to push down international canola prices before China buys large volumes at a discount. Similar tariffs in 2019 and 2020 cost the canola industry $2.3 billion, he said. "If this stays in for six or eight months, we could be looking at billions of dollars in costs," Smyth told CBC Radio West host Sarah Penton. China claims Canada is dumping canola below the cost of production, which the federal government denies. Smyth says Canada doesn't subsidize crops like other countries do, nor does it promote exports with subsidies. Canada and China are challenging each other at the WTO, and while Prime Minister Mark Carney says his government is working with industry to find solutions, Smyth doesn't expect much of a response. He believes Carney is prioritizing the steel, aluminum, and auto sectors to save jobs in southern Ontario, where there's a high density of voters. "The federal government has been very reserved on reaching out to China, having consultations, or even trying to set up discussions with them," Smyth said. Farmers running out of time Wiebe says the federal government needs to strike a deal with China soon, even if that means walking back its EV tariffs. "If that could be resolved, and the tariffs, or the anti-dumping duty in this case, lifted, I believe our canola price would probably jump $2 to $3 a bushel probably within the next week." Some may pivot from canola if profitability keeps sliding, Wiebe said, but planting other crops like wheat or oats has risks of its own. Flooding those markets could only end up driving down those prices too. "We're price takers," he said. "We can only sell at what the market offers."

Letters to the Editor, Aug 18, 2025
MAKE A DEAL Why don't we open up a finite number equal to say 15% of the EV sales in Canada to China? Some conditions have to apply. They must meet our crash and safety standards, contain some Canadian content such as Canadian-made tires, and be winter-proven. We will apply a reasonable import tariff to keep the playing field somewhat level. Market forces will be the true litmus test of sales and acceptability. Now what do we get in return, like canola exports. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

Create Account William Divitcoff Toronto (The current federal government has no plan) KILL EV MANDATE PM Carney's refusal to rescind the legislation compelling the sale of EVs shows that the liberal nonsensical thinking continues despite the new leader. EVs are impractical and virtually unworkable in cold, rural environments. Imagine the government passing a law that forced all citizens to run 10 kilometres in under 45 minutes. They'd cite the health benefits and lower medical costs associated with better health ignoring the fact the standard was totally unattainable. Show some leadership, Mark — drop the EV requirements.
