USD/CAD Reversal from March Low Still in Focus Following BoC Testimony

CANADIAN DOLLAR TALKING POINTS

USD/CAD is little changed from the start of the week amid the limited reaction to the semi-annual testimony with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, but recent developments in the Relative Strength Index (RSI) warn of a larger correction as the indicator bounces back from oversold territory and offers a textbook buy signal.

USD/CAD appears to be stuck in a narrow range as Chairman Powell largely refers to the June policy statement in front of Congress, and it seems as though the central bank has little intention of deploying more non-standard measures as the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) pledges to “evaluate our monetary policy stance and communications as more information about the trajectory of the economy become available.”

The Bank of Canada (BoC) appears to be on a similar path as Governor Tiff Macklem tells Canadian lawmakers that “market functioning has improved considerably,” with the prepared remarks revealing that the central bank has “scaled back the frequency of some operations because financial market participants are not using them.”

However, Governor Macklem warns that there’s “a long way to go, and not all the jobs that were lost are coming back” even though the central bank expects “economic growth to resume in the third quarter.” As a result, the BoC may utilize its balance throughout 2020 as officials are “committed to continuing purchases of Government of Canada bonds until the economic recovery is well underway.”

Nevertheless, Governor Macklem insists that “any further policy actions would be calibrated to provide the necessary degree of monetary policy accommodation required to achieve the inflation target,” and the comments suggest the BoC will carry out a wait-and-see approach over the coming months as “the Bank’s policy actions are designed to complement the government’s fiscal efforts.”

In turn, BoC officials may continue to rule out a negative interest rate policy (NIRP) for Canada, and Governor Macklem and Co. may soften the dovish forward guidance at the next meeting on July 15 as the unprecedented efforts taken by monetary as well as fiscal authorities “will position the economy for recovery.”

With that said, USD/CAD may face range-bound conditions as the FOMC and BoC appear to be taming speculation for additional monetary support, but recent price action raises the scope for a larger correction as the exchange rate reverses at the March low (1.3315), while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) bounces back from oversold territory and offers a textbook buy signal.
