CANADIAN DOLLAR ON THE FIRM SIDE IN THIN MONDAY MARKET ACTION

· Views 24




  • Canadian Dollar sees thin gains with support from steady Crude Oil bids.
  • Canada sees a data-light economic calendar this week.
  • Markets kick off the new trading week on a quiet note ahead of key US inflation data.

The Canadian Dollar (CAD) found some room on the high side on Monday, drifting into the green against most of its major currency peers in thin Monday trading. Markets have opened on a quiet note as investors gear up for a smattering of US economic data, with Tuesday’s US Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation print a key focus for markets heavily invested in betting on rate cuts from the US Federal Reserve (Fed).

Canada has a light showing on the economic calendar this week, and CAD releases on the data docket are strictly low-impact. Thursday’s Housing Starts are expected to slightly improve, while Friday’s Wholesale Sales are forecast to tick slightly lower. Overall, CAD flows can expect to see Crude Oil markets and US Dollar (USD) risk appetite take the wheel this week
