The Canadian dollar was rangebound in overnight currency exchange markets. Oil is at $94.14 and gold is at $1,392. NY futures are lower today. Today, there are no major data releases today.
The short term Canadian dollar technicals are bearish. For today, USD resistance is at 1.0450, and 1.0599. Support is at 1.0235, 1.0150, and 1.0010.
Decent US data released yesterday has many wondering what that means for the FED and their quantitative easing program pullback schedule. The OECD has warned that pullback of quantitative easing could hurt bonds and global growth. US bond yields are higher and the yield curve is steeper implying that the FED could reduce quantitative easing in the near future. The Bank of Canada policy announcement is today and no change is expected but markets will focus on the tone of the announcement.
Today’s Suggested Range USD/CAD: 1.0350 – 1.0450
