Canadian Dollar weakens on Tuesday as expectations of Federal Reserve rate cut diminish

The Canadian Dollar (CAD) experienced some softening on Tuesday, but remained close to midrange technical levels. The currency market in Canada seemed to brush off the positive Ivey Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) figures from the country, with focus shifting towards Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers and their stance on potential rate cuts.

Despite an improvement in the seasonally-adjusted Ivey PMI for April, indicating a positive outlook on business activity in Canada, the Canadian Dollar continues to face challenges from fluctuating Crude Oil markets and declining oil prices. Investors are eagerly waiting for insight from the Fed regarding any rate cut signals, which remain a primary focus for the market.

The release of Canada’s Ivey PMI for April showed an increase to 63.0 from 57.5, surpassing expectations. The PMI hit a two-year high, reflecting the highest level of activity since May 2022. However, the overall market focus is on the Fed’s outlook on rate cuts, especially after Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari expressed caution regarding any immediate cuts due to inflation and labor market conditions.

The upcoming Bank of Canada’s Financial System Review on Thursday is anticipated to impact the market, alongside the release of Canadian labor data on Friday. The Net Change in Employment is forecasted to add 20K jobs in April, following a decline in the previous month. Additionally, the Canadian Unemployment Rate is expected to see a slight increase from the previous month’s figure.

Technical analysis of the Canadian Dollar reveals a slight decline on Tuesday against major currencies, with the currency showing particular weakness against the US Dollar. The USD/CAD pair broke through the 1.3700 handle and the 200-hour EMA, despite shedding gains from the previous week. The currency remains trading higher for the year, despite fluctuations in recent weeks.

Factors such as interest rates set by the Bank of Canada, Oil prices, economic indicators, and market sentiment play a significant role in influencing the value of the Canadian Dollar. The BoC’s decisions on interest rates, along with the price of Oil, are key drivers for the CAD. Other factors such as inflation, trade balance, and macroeconomic data releases also impact the currency’s performance in the market. Investors are closely monitoring these factors to gauge the future movement of the Canadian Dollar.
