In June, the Bank\u00a0dropped<\/a>\u00a0the interest rate from a longstanding 5% to 4.75%. That move was the first in more than four years, following six rate holds. Another quarter-point cut followed in July, bringing the rate to 4.5%. Then, in September, the BoC\u00a0cut the key interest rate to 4.25%<\/a>.<\/p>\n

CIBC economists and other industry experts expect a quarter-point cut in October.<\/p>\n

This means we could potentially see the rate drop to 3% in January.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s in contrast to a prior forecast that had rates easing at 25 basis points at a time, and we no longer expect any pauses on the path to less restrictive rates,\u201d CIBC economist Avery Shenfeld said in the report.<\/p>\n
