From the Canadian end, its latest Gross Domestic Product for the month of October came in flat at 0%, falling short of expectation for a rise of 0.2%. However, the blow on Canadian dollar was soften after US latest inflation data fell short, solidifying market\u2019s bearish expectation towards the Feds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In November, the Core PCE Price Index (Fed preferred inflation data) rose by 0.1% while its annual rate ticked up to 3.2%. The data is well below market expectation for a rise of 0.2% and 3.3% respectively. Recent signs of diminishing inflationary pressure in the US may bring up discussion on the need to keep interest at high level for longer period. This has also sparked expectation that the Federal Reserve may cut its interest rates sooner to reach a balance in between economic progression and healthy inflation levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Consequently, Canadian dollar received a bump in market demand during early trading hours due to rising tension in the Middle East. Oil prices jumped more than 2%, hitting its highest level in a month following attacks on cargo ships in the Red Sea. Rising geopolitical tension in the region sparked speculation of possible disruption in oil supply, thus lending support for the commodity and Canadian dollar (Canada is a major oil exporting country).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"color:#ddd\" class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-spacer gb-block-spacer gb-divider-solid gb-divider-size-1\"><hr style=\"height:30px\" \/><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>USD\/CAD Technical Analysis<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color\"><strong><em>USD\/CAD Daily Chart Insight<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-9044df1c\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-9044df1c\" src=\"https:\/\/www.umtradings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/USDCAD-Daily-Chart-Insight.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"USDCAD-Daily-Chart-Insight\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-1a8bf330 gb-headline-text\"><strong><em>USD\/CAD Daily Chart Insight<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\"><b>Price action: <\/b><span lang=\"EN-US\">USD\/CAD fell through previous stronghold at 1.3370, which opens ample space for further downside.
