bit canadian corporate dollar fairly interest rally seen sell thin
I think we've seen a little bit of a Canadian dollar rally on some of the crosses, so that's been a benefit, and there's been some corporate interest to sell the U.S. dollar (versus Canada) in a fairly thin market.
bit general seen
I think in general what we have seen is a little bit of profit-taking,
against canadian dollar driving euro seems seen since
Since Friday, we've seen the Canadian dollar do very well against the crosses, particularly against the euro and the sterling. That seems to be driving most of the Canadian dollar gains right now.
came data initially market seen
It weakened off initially when the data came out, and then we've seen the market come back a little bit.
claims costs dollar elevated given initial labor level print rally reaction seen short supportive unit viewed
We have not seen much reaction but given the elevated level of unit labor costs as well as the lower-than-expected print of initial claims data, that would be viewed as dollar supportive and may see the dollar rally over the short term.
amount canadian dollar fact gains given last oil prices recent result saw seen weakness week weighed
Last week we saw oil give back a sizable amount of recent gains and I just think that given the fact that we have seen some weakness in oil prices as a result of that, that's weighed on the Canadian dollar as well,
deficit maintain minds move question surplus
I think the question on most people's minds is what are they going to do to be able to maintain the surplus and not overspend so that we move back into a deficit situation.
avoided catch low man stayed
We catch a lot of flak, ... They give us a lot of ribbing over that. I just say, 'I'm just the low man on the totem pole.' I don't feel responsible. I don't know if we would have stayed if we would have avoided that or not.
break couple cross days last past starting tried
Over the last couple of days we've tried to break past C$1.1650 (85.83 U.S. cents) and we really haven't been able to do it, and I think what we're starting to see now is some profit-taking, not only on dollar/Canada positions, but on cross positions.
cuts pay tax worried
I think the tax cuts were too big, and I am worried about the deficit. You have to pay it back at some point.
market terms tone
I think in terms of tone it was a little more dovish than what the market was expecting.
dollar peak reached
I think it's more of a short-term thing. I don't think it is something that really indicates that the dollar has reached a peak and it's about to depreciate significantly.
allowed basically canadian dollar early high move saw toward
That allowed the Canadian dollar to basically move back toward the 14-year high that we saw in early March.
bit happening relax wish
It doesn't get any easier. I wish this thing would have a little bit of a corrective bounce, and I could relax a little bit, but it's not happening here.
