USDCAD eased amid rate hike from Bank of Canada.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

USDCAD slumped from its recent high since Wednesday following the rate hike from Bank of Canada (BoC). According to Bank of Canada statement, Canada Interest Rate notched up from the previous reading of 0.50% to 1.00%, which fulfilled the market forecast of 1.00%. The Quantitative Tightening would begin on April 25. Besides, the BoC Governing Council judges that rates need to rise further and emphasizes that interest rates would be the bank\u2019s primary tool for setting monetary policy. The BoC reiterated that they would guide the timing and pace of further rate hikes, as the BoC remains committed to achieving the 2% inflation target. The war-driven inflation risk had led to the spike of commodities price such as crude oil. Thus, BoC decided to increase interest rate in order to combat inflation risk by diminishing money circulation in the market. Rate hike from BoC would likely to bring positive prospects toward Canadian Dollar, prompting investors to shift their capitals towards Canadian Dollar. Investors would continue to scrutinize the latest updates with regards of interest rate decision from BoC in order to gauge the likelihood movement of the pair. As of writing, USDCAD depreciated by 0.13% to 1.2550.<\/p>\n

In commodities market, crude oil price edged down by 0.82% to $103.39 per barrel as of writing following US Crude Oil Inventories came in at the reading of 9.382M, exceeding the previous reading of 2.421M and the market forecast of 0.863M. Besides, gold price depreciated by 0.33% to $19787.10 per troy ounces as of writing. Nonetheless, overall trend for gold price remained bullish over the backdrop of rising tension between Russia-Ukraine.<\/p>\n
