Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce shares are sliding as traders lock in gains after a sharp rally tied to Ottawa’s massive $500 billion defense spending plan and the bank’s role in the new Defence, Security and Resilience Bank. Sentiment turned cautious after the Bank of Canada’s latest Senior Loan Officer Survey reignited worries about credit quality and CIBC’s sizable exposure to Canada’s housing market.
Analysts say this looks more like a stock-specific correction than the start of a broader selloff, as investors revisit what they are willing to pay for the bank in an environment of tighter lending standards. The reassessment comes amid ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, prompting some to question whether the recent run-up in CIBC’s valuation went too far, too fast.
