As Unemployment Claims showed a strong US job market on Thursday, the US dollar gained. The yield on two-year Treasury notes, which is influenced by forecasts for interest rates, consequently rose to values last seen in July 2007.

The Federal Reserve is the center of attention, and Raphael Bostic, president of the Atlanta Fed, stated on Thursday that the central bank is prepared to keep raising rates if inflation does not moderate and that it is still considering how recent, higher-than-expected inflation data may affect Fed policy. The Fed should continue with "constant" quarter-point rate rises, even though the effects of higher rates on the economy might not "bite" in earnest until this spring.

 

The internal economy of Canada, meanwhile, experienced growth that was flat SAAR compared to the 1.6% anticipated and a revised 2.3% (was2.9%) in Q3, which was the lowest since Q2 2021.

The next meeting is scheduled for March 8, but according to WIRP, a final 25-bp rise to 4.75% is still factored in for Q3. The BoC has signaled a pause in its increasing cycle, and as a result, the Canadian currency is likely to keep finding it difficult to advance against the USD.
