Analysis and Recommendations:
The USD/CAD drifted downward on negative USD sentiment. After several eco reports supported the overall slowdown of the US economic the greenback retreated.
In Canada today the OECD released it notes that Canada has appropriately accommodative monetary policy, but should stand ready to react to signs of inflation; while boosting innovation should be a key focus which will help to improve productivity. The BoC will release the June issue of the Financial System Review, with three articles including one on systemically important financial institutions another on elevated household debt and a third on central counterparty for the fixed income market. None of these are likely to be market moving.
Some stability across markets and a moderation in risk aversion are positive for CAD. Most indicators suggest that we are not moving towards a replay of the spike in risk aversion in the summer of 2011 (when USDCAD jumped from 0.95 to 1.06) nor are we moving towards a repeat of the 2010 experience (when USDCAD jumped from 0.9931 to 1.0850).
