Macro Background

Important Issue
Due to ongoing Government Shutdown, the Federal Reserve will be in no position to appropriately assess the next rate hike. Thus, it is likely that the Federal Funds Rate will remain at 2.50% next week during FOMC. Instead, focus on the press conference to receive possible hints on the next rate hike.

Day 3 of the World Economic Forum annual meeting. Comments made by highly influential figures may cause market volatility.

USD/CAD tested and rejected the resistance level of 1.33570.
