Foreign investors increased their holdings of Canadian securities by C$26.7 billion in July of 2025, gaining traction from the revised C$1 billion in the previous month, to mark the sharpest net investment since September of 2024. The surge was carried by a C$14.8 billion net increase in holdings of debt securities, mostly through money market instruments (C$11.1 billion) as the Bank of Canada held its key rates unchanged, while net holdings of bonds rose by C$3.7 billion. Additionally, holdings of equity in Canadian companies rose by C$11.8 billion, aligned with the record-high levels in benchmark TSX indices during the month. In the meantime, Canadian investors increased their holdings in foreign financial assets by $17.4 billion.

The STOXX 50 pared early gains to trade near the flat line at 5,370 points on Wednesday, while the broader STOXX 600 was little changed at 551, as investors adopted a cautious stance ahead of the US Federal Reserve’s policy decision later today. The Fed is widely expected to deliver its first rate cut in nine months, reducing rates by 25 basis points to their lowest level since late 2022 amid a slowing labor market. Markets will also scrutinize the Fed’s quarterly “dot plot” projections for clues on the trajectory of future policy.
