On the back of lingering trade jitters between the US and Cadana because of looming tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, the pair is likely to trade with higher volatility in the nearest days. Canada's GDP report is due tomorrow. According to flash estimates, Q1 GDP is expected to decrease to 0.0% from the previous value of 0.3%. So, CAD is currently trying to regain footing. Though Bank of Canada's Governor Poloz did not speak about upcoming rate hike in July, his comments injected indecision in the market momentum.
