TORONTO — Five things to watch in Canadian business next week:
inflation
Statistics Canada is scheduled to release its latest inflation figures on Tuesday, coinciding with the release of the consumer price index for January. The consumer price index increased by 3.4% in December, following a 3.1% increase in November compared to the same month last year.
Gildan
Gildan Activewear Inc. is scheduled to report fourth-quarter and full-year earnings and hold a conference call with financial analysts before the market opens Wednesday. Gildan is embroiled in a battle with shareholders who want founder Glenn Chamandy to return as chief executive.
Suncall
Suncor Energy will report fourth-quarter and full-year results Wednesday night, followed by a conference call with investment analysts scheduled for Thursday morning. Earlier this month, Colorado fined the company $10.5 million for air pollution violations from July 2019 to June 2021.
Loblaw
Loblaw Cos. Ltd. plans to announce its fourth quarter and full year results on Thursday morning and hold a conference call to discuss the report. The gains come as the grocery industry faces increased scrutiny over the cost of food products.
tech resources
Teck Resources Ltd. is scheduled to report fourth-quarter and full-year results on Thursday morning and hold a conference call with investors. The company announced last month that 2023 copper production was lower than this year’s forecast, while zinc production was also slightly lower than expected.
