Canada’s retail sales will be out on Friday at 15:30 MT time. The last report marked the fifth monthly increase in a row, and the first time actual retail sales come out better than the estimates: 1.1% vs. the forecast of 0.2%. These days USD/CAD is trading at its multiyear low levels driven by the weakness of USD. If this time Canada’s retail sales beat expectations again, the pair will fall even deeper.
