USD/CAD climbs above 1.25 for the first time since April

July 11, 2021 by admin 0 Comments

USD/CAD helped by oil decline

Oil is at the lows of the day at $71.48 in a dramatic turnaround from $76.98 just over 24 hours ago.

The drop in crude and broad US dollar bid have combined to boost USD/CAD to 1.2514, but 50 pips on the day. The pair is trading at the highest since April 21 on broadening weakness in commodites and a message from the bond market that inflation isn’t coming.

Technically, there isn’t much standing in the way of a return to 1.2630-1.2660 now.
