How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| CADUSD | A weaker industrial cycle reduces expected Canadian growth and lowers the probability of persistent Bank of Canada tightening. | Down1-5d | Canada's manufacturing PMI fell to 49.6, below the 50 expansion threshold, after three monthly declines. |
| USDCAD | The weaker Canadian growth signal widens the relative macro advantage of the United States and supports the US dollar against the loonie. | Up1-5d | Canadian manufacturing entered contraction while US manufacturing expanded. |
| XIU | Contraction in manufacturing can weigh on Canadian industrial and cyclical earnings expectations. | Down1-4w | The national manufacturing PMI declined to 49.6 in October. |
