Toronto’s real estate market may see price surges in late 2026, according to the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board’s chief information officer, citing pent-up demand and limited supply as key drivers. Geopolitical tensions, particularly the Iran conflict, are inflating fertilizer and fuel costs for Canadian farmers, warns the Canadian Federation of Agriculture, squeezing profit margins amid volatile oil markets. Canadian bond yields are rising due to safe-haven demand spurred by global instability, with BMO’s fixed income chief noting a "tug-of-war" between risk aversion and economic uncertainty. Investment managers anticipate double-digit earnings growth this season, per Humilis Investment Strategies’ CEO, as firms focus on fundamentals despite market volatility and geopolitical noise. Analysts project a 20% potential gain for a major TSX oilsands stock amid the Strait of Hormuz crisis, highlighting how energy disruptions are reshaping Canada’s oil and gas sector.
