Fundamental Analysis
Bullish CAD Factors:


Oil Prices:
  • Canada’s economy is heavily reliant on oil exports. Rising oil prices typically strengthen the CAD.
  • If crude oil prices rebound, CADJPY could move higher.
    Economic Outlook:
  • Recent data might indicate improving Canadian GDP growth or employment figures, supporting CAD strength.
  • The Bank of Canada’s monetary policy stance (e.g., potential rate hikes or a neutral tone) can boost CAD sentiment.


Bearish JPY Factors:

BOJ Monetary Policy:

  • The Bank of Japan continues its ultra-loose monetary policy, suppressing JPY strength.
  • Low interest rates and yield curve control weaken the JPY compared to higher-yield currencies like CAD.

Risk-On Sentiment:
  • During December, markets often exhibit a "Santa rally" (bullish equities). Risk-on sentiment favors CAD over the safe-haven JPY.
  • Seasonality:


Historically, CADJPY trends bullish in mid to late December due to:
Increased demand for risk assets.
Seasonal oil demand, which strengthens CAD.
Year-end positioning and reduced JPY demand in global markets.
