Pip Diddy

Looks like the Loonie took cues from both risk sentiment and Canadian data last week. Will the same thing happen again this week? Here are potential catalysts.

The ECB minutes didn’t do much to push the shared currency in a clear direction, so traders might turn to this week’s batch of catalysts. What’s in store for the euro and franc?

With no economic data on the docket, forex traders took on a bit more risk but continued to sell the Canadian dollar. What’s up with that?!

Sterling had a pretty stellar run over the past week despite weaker than expected economic reports. Can positive Brexit updates and hawkish BOE expectations keep propping the U.K. currency up?

The yen might have clocked in another positive week, but it was knocked off its top spot. What can move the lower-yielding currency this time?

The Aussie tagged its fifth consecutive losing week last week on the back of lower gold prices and a concerned RBA. What’s in store for the comdoll this week?

Overall risk aversion helped drag Kiwi lower and end its winning streak last week. Will this week’s reports bring back the bulls to its yard?

The pound price action was a bit wonky. Even so, it was the top-performing currency of the morning London session. The Swissy, meanwhile, was broadly lower, likely because of prevalence of risk appetite.

Risk-taking was the name of the game during the Asian session. Kiwi missed the memo, however, and dropped sharply against its major counterparts.

Well that seemed too good to last! The dollar let go of its winnings from earlier in the week as U.S. bond yields ticked lower while risk appetite peeked back in.
