USD/CAD takes another spill after Poloz says rates have been extraordinarily low

The BOC is clearly on some kind of communications offensive

Poloz popped up in an interview on CBC Radio.

  • It's not time to throw a party over the recovery
  • Interest rate cuts have done their job
  • Interest rates have been low to offset shocks

The odds of a Bank of Canada hike before year end have risen above 60% from below 30% pre-Wilkins.

USD/CAD is down 85 pips today despite some sogginess in oil over the past hour.

The April low is the next key support level.
