Danske Research Team highlights that USD/CAD remains confined between 1.36 and 1.37 as risk-off sentiment offsets support from Canada’s net energy exporter status. The bank expects the Bank of Canada to keep its policy rate unchanged at 2.25% at an interim meeting without new projections, with attention on forward guidance tone rather than policy changes.
Energy support offsets risk-off Dollar bid
“In the afternoon, focus turns to the Bank of Canada meeting at 14:45 CET – where we, in line with consensus, expect the policy rate to remain on hold at 2.25%.”
“Note that this is an interim meeting without a new Monetary Policy Report, so focus will be on the tone of forward guidance.”
“The CAD remains resilient among G10 currencies against the USD, supported by Canada’s net-energy exporter status.”
“However, risk-off sentiment and broader USD strength have kept USD/CAD rangebound between 1.36-1.37.”
