The Japanese economy has also shown signs of improvement. As the global economy continues to expand and oil producers maintain production quotas, the world price of crude oil and the North American price of natural gas have been higher than expected. In contrast, prices for most non-energy commodities have been below expectations. In the United States, core inflation, which excludes energy and food prices, has continued to edge up. Recent data indicate that the pace of U.S. activity remains robust. However, there have been signs of slowing in interest-rate-sensitive sectors. Whether the slowing will be sufficient to reduce inflation pressures is not yet clear. Given the tight labour market, the balance of risks suggests continued upward pressure on U.S. core inflation. 000004183 538__ $$aSystem requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader. 000004183 650_0 $$aMonetary policy$$zCanada.$$aPolitique monétaire$$zCanada. 000004183 7102_ $$aBank of Canada. 000004183 7750_ $$iFrench version$$tMise à jour du Rapport sur la politique monétaire : août 2000$$w4204 000004183 8301_ $$aMPR Update 000004183 8564_ $$uhttps://www.oar-rao.bank-banque-canada.ca/record/4183/files/mpr_up_aug2000.pdf$$9b8cdbe00-f437-4f3f-84ec-a5ce0f569bfc$$s96768$$zFile Source: Bank of Canada website, 2024 000004183 909CO $$ooai:www.oar-rao.bank-banque-canada.ca:4183$$pbibliographic 000004183 980__ $$aIR 000004183 980__ $$aMonetary Policy Report 000004183 991__ $$aPublic
