CIBC pulls from Equifax. Amex hits up your TU profile. So, if you're applying within days of each other, it shouldn't make a difference, since they normally won't pull the other bureau to see your recent credit enquiries.
For churning CIBC, I'm one of the multi-players...if you'd like I can send you some info in private, away from the prying eyes of the CIBC moles.
