Fundamental analysis:
With high inflation and increasing risk of economic recession, the market generally expects the Federal Reserve to raise the policy interest rate from 3.25% to 4.00%. The market will find out from the monetary policy statement of the Bank of Canada whether it is ready to turn to doves, and everyone will focus on the economic forecast of the Bank of Canada. If the Central Bank of Canada raises interest rates by 75 basis points, the US dollar may return to 1.3850 against the Canadian dollar. If the committee members are cautious about the risk of recession and suggest that the pace of tightening policy may slow down in the future, then the currency pair may accelerate its rise. In addition, if the Central Bank of Canada said it would rely on economic data while raising interest rates by 75 basis points, it would be regarded as a dove's attitude
