USD/CAD trades around 1.4210 on Monday at the time of writing, as investors remain on the sidelines ahead of a series of key US labor market releases, culminating with Thursday's June Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report. The US Dollar (USD) is edging lower, while the Canadian Dollar (CAD) is not finding support from rebounding Oil prices.
Market participants are now focused on the May JOLTS Job Openings report, the ISM Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) and the June ADP Employment Change data, all of which will precede the official employment report. These releases could shape expectations for the Federal Reserve's (Fed) monetary policy after Chairman Kevin Warsh recently said the central bank should refrain from providing forward guidance under the current policy environment.
On the geopolitical front, investors are watching Tuesday's talks between the United States (US) and Iran regarding the situation around the Strait of Hormuz. The improved diplomatic outlook has reduced safe-haven demand for the US Dollar, although markets remain highly sensitive to any renewed escalation in the Middle East.
The Canadian Dollar is also not benefiting from the recovery in Oil prices. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) trades around $70.60 at the time of press, up 0.68% on the day, after rebounding from an earlier decline triggered by reports that Washington and Tehran would resume negotiations. Higher Crude prices typically support the Canadian currency, given Canada's status as a major Oil exporter, but the Loonie remains weighed down by earlier Crude losses.
According to Scotiabank strategists Shaun Osborne and Eric Theoret, the Canadian Dollar may also benefit from narrower short-term US-Canada yield spreads. The bank estimates USD/CAD's fundamental fair value at 1.4135 and notes that positioning indicators point to an extremely overbought US Dollar. Scotiabank argues that this could cap further gains toward the 1.4250-1.4300 area and open the door to a modest pullback toward 1.4075-1.4080.
