Canadian Dollar buying could fuel a rebound against the US Dollar, but JPMorgan’s trading desk doubts the recovery has lasting economic support. JPMorgan’s trading desk has spotted a shift towards Canadian Dollar buying, but remains unconvinced that a rebound would develop into sustained strength against the US Dollar. Its 6 October commentary describes clients selling USD/CAD across all customer categories, a change from the persistent selling of the Canadian currency seen recently.

The dollar remains supported as September showed a Fed firmly expecting to hike the policy rate again later in the year. French debt markets are still unsettled and remains fragile. Expect more focus on political events in Paris today and also on Bank of England speakers, where centrists could turn more hawkish USD: Clean, Hawkish Read From the FOMC Minutes September FOMC minutes published last night reflect a hawkish Fed. One sentence which caught our eye was: “Most participants assessed that another increase in the target range for the federal funds rate would likely be appropriate by year-end.” This followed…

USD The dollar’s Tuesday pause proved short-lived. Wednesday saw the rise around 0.4 as Treasuries sold off again, with the touching 5.36% before a strong auction prompted yields to retreat. The September FOMC minutes added little: all 19 participants backed the hike to 3.75-4.00%, and most judged a further move would likely be appropriate by year-end, with the Middle East energy shock, AI investment and tariffs all cited as upside inflation risks.

Prime Minister Mark Carney was in Fort McMurray, Alta., this week to announce the first proposal to be deemed in the national interest under legislation passed last year: the million-barrel-per-day Pacific Link pipeline from Alberta to a tanker export terminal in southern B.C.  The designation means the proposal will be subject to a streamlined review process, shepherded by the Calgary-based major projects office.  The pipeline’s economic fate hinges on oilsands companies being willing to spend on expanding their output. At a news conference, Carney was asked whether he expected a return to boom times in the northeastern Alberta oilsands hub…
