The Bank of Canada cut interest rates sharply for the second time in a row this month, and hinted that policymakers are prepared to slow down the pace of monetary easing. The bank cut interest rates by 50 basis points to 3.25%, bringing borrowing costs to the upper part of their expected range of neutral interest rates.

"Looking ahead, we will evaluate the necessity of further reducing the policy interest rate one by one."German Foreign Minister: The truce between Kurds and Turkey is good news.Zhuoran shares: the settlement amount of order change is 15,685,900 yuan.
