More from GS :
- USD/CAD broke below a few key levels last week as a pro-risk rotation across markets supported higher-beta currencies. But we continue to expect any further rally to be short-lived.
- The Bank of Canada will likely ease policy in the coming months, and Canada still has domestic fragilities-housing market risks, energy sector recession-as well as other less favourable fundamentals than other economies with similar currency drivers (e.g., NOK).
