GFX Afternoon FX Commentary

Good afternoon,

Below are the current daily levels vs. the other major currencies.
USD.CAD 1.0465up 0.35%

GBP.CAD 1.6871 up 0.45%
EUR.CAD 1.4171 up 0.61%

The Canadian dollar fell slightly versus most major currencies as the nation’s largest export, crude oil, touched the lowest level in more than five months.  Crude oil has fallen a little over .6 percent in NY.
The Euro has enjoyed gains in early trading following the European Central Banks statement it would need to be “very careful” when considering using negative interest rates to counter the issue of low inflation.

October’s US retail sales figures are due out tomorrow morning, with the expectation being that they will have increased on the previous month when they experienced a decline. The positive figure could drive the US dollar higher against the Canadian and will need to be monitored closely.
The overnight expected range for the Canadian dollar against the USD dollar 1.0415-1.0500

The overnight expected range for the Canadian dollar against the Euro is 1.4140-1.4221
The overnight expected range for the Canadian dollar against Sterling is 1.6850-1.6921

Have a great afternoon,
