Alphabet(GOOG.O)高管：運營現金流受到爲TPU系統銷售而增加庫存的負面影響。

David Watt, former HSBC Canada chief economist, called the BOC's 25bp hike to 2.50% "weak", saying the bank framed the move as precautionary because current inflation indicators show limited pass‑through of fuel‑cost rises into non‑energy goods. Watt said if the BOC judges action necessary to curb inflationary pressure it should be explicit and decisive; the bank's language that further increases are possible but decisions will be taken meeting‑by‑meeting suggests, he argued, the move does not mark the start of a new tightening cycle. Watt wrote: "If rates are going to rise they should say so with conviction."
