The euro gave back earlier gains resulting from the development of an anti-crisis tool by the ECB and a speech by President Lagarde. A spotlight is on the Canadian dollar this morning as PM Trudeau indicated expansion of energy infrastructure.
“We aim above the mark to hit the mark.”

The Bloomberg Dollar Index, a gauge which tracks the performance of ten leading global currencies vs. the USD, is higher despite recent speculation of a slowdown in the US on higher interest rates.

GBPGBP is weaker on overall US dollar strength and the UK government passed the first stage of abandoning parts of the Northern Ireland Protocol, an element of the Brexit deal which has and will continue to undermine the pound.
EURThe euro reversed earlier momentum on positive reports of an ECB plan to drain cash from the banking system to offset bond purchases made to confine borrowing costs for euro members. Hawkish comments by Governing Council member Martin Kazaks were neutralized by ECB President Lagarde vowing nimble policy.
CADThe loonie is on course for its strongest level against the dollar in two weeks as German leaders indicated hopes to shift its energy reliance towards Canada. PM Trudeau indicated that Canada may expand its energy infrastructure to support Europe.
