TSX Futures Tick Higher Ahead of BoC Rate Decision

Futures tracking Canadian stocks have edged higher on Wednesday, ahead of the Bank of Canada's interest-rate decision.

The central bank is widely expected to hold its key interest rate at 2.25%, a move that will be closely watched by markets for clues on the path ahead.

Canadian bond yields have eased slightly after a global selloff in the previous session, as elevated oil prices and concerns over government debt in major economies pushed global yields to multi-month highs.
