Fawad Razaqzada November 15, 2018 12:31 PM

Although at the moment the Bank of Canada is clearly more hawkish than the Reserve Bank of Australia, the recent sell-off in oil prices has dented the appeal of the Loonie a little. Meanwhile economic data from Australia has improved – as indicated, for example, by the 32,800 jump in October employment – while hopes have risen that the nation’s larg...

Matt Weller, CFA, CMT November 13, 2018 3:25 PM

Fawad Razaqzada November 12, 2018 7:36 AM
