🧠 Summary
The Canadian dollar strengthened sharply against the U.S. dollar, reaching a two-week high due to a gloomy U.S. economic outlook and expectations of Fed rate cuts, despite weaker oil prices and easing Canadian bond yields.
💡 Why this signal?
- The USDCAD pair gained strength as a major investment bank forecast slower U.S. economic growth and significant Fed rate cuts, undermining the U.S. dollar.
- Investor risk sentiment shifted away from the dollar benefiting the Canadian dollar despite lower oil prices and caution in Canadian business investment.
- The Fed rate cut expectations and weakening USD prompted capital flows favoring the Canadian dollar, propelling it to its highest in two weeks.
