CANADA: GS See USD/CAD At 1.46 Over 12 Months

Jan-13 13:27
  • Goldman Sachs: "We have shifted our forecasts to 1.46, 1.46, 1.46 (from flat at 1.39) in 3, 6, and 12 months" given more focused rhetoric on Canada tariffs from the new Trump administration. 
  • USD/CAD moving lower on last week's resignation news was "sensible , as it extinguished some near-term election risk and may have very marginally raised the probability that the current government lasts through the budget." 
  • However, "with Parliament prorogued and Trudeau in a caretaker role until a new party leader is selected, this could limit the ability of policymakers to challenge tariff rhetoric from the Trump administration."
  • They don't see Trudeau's resignation altering the medium outlook for USD/CAD though.
