  • El USD/CAD permanece bajo cierta presión de venta alrededor de 1.3376 debido al USD más débil. 
  • The US S&P Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index came in better than expected in January.  
  • El PMI manufacturero global del S&P de Canadá llegó a 48.3 en enero desde 45.4 en diciembre.
  • Las nóminas no agrícolas (NFP, por sus siglas en inglés), la tasa de desempleo y los ingresos promedio por hora de EE. UU. se publicarán más tarde el viernes. 

The USD/CAD pair remains on the defensive below the 1.3400 mark during the early Asian trading hours on Friday. The pair snaps a four-week winning streak as the Dólar estadounidense (USD) loses its recovery momentum and drops to 103.00. Traders await the US Nóminas no agrícolas (NFP) report for January. This event might trigger the volatility in the market. USD/CAD currently trades near 1.3376, down 0.09% on the day. 

Data released on Thursday revealed that the US Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) improved sharply in January. The US S&P Global Manufacturing PMI came in at 49.1 versus 47.1, beating the market expectation of 47.0. The overall growth was mainly driven by renewed growth in new orders and a slowdown in production contraction. The upbeat Manufacturing PMI figure failed to lift the Greenback as traders digested the information from the January Fed cita. 

On Thursday, the Canadian S&P Global Manufacturing PMI improved to 48.3 in January from the previous reading of 45.4. Earlier this week, the nation’s real Producto Interno Bruto (GDP) expanded by 0.2% in November. The growth numbers indicated a resilience in the Canadian economy and could take the pressure off the Bank of Canada (BoC) to cut interest rates. Meanwhile, a decline in los precios del petróleo might weigh on the commodity-linked Loonie as Canada is the largest oil exporter to the United States. 

Market participants will closely monitor the US labor market data on Friday. The US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) is estimated to see 185k job additions in January. The Unemployment Rate is expected to rise to 3.8%, and finally, the Average Hourly Earnings are projected to show an increase of 0.3% MoM. Also, the US Factory Orders and the final reading of the Michigan Consumer Sentiment will be due. Traders will take cues from these figures and find trading opportunities around the USD / CAD par.
