Away from major pairs, commodity linked currencies have also seen choppy price action today, with the likes of CAD mirroring the moves in the energy complex whereby Brent and WTI crude futures both saw multi year lows, with the former falling below USD 36.50/bbl and the latter below USD 35/bbl. However, at the NYMEX pit open, oil pared much its losses, with commodity linked currencies following suit, to see the likes of CAD trade relatively flat against the USD, whilst AUD/USD trades in positive territory ahead of the RBA minutes, scheduled for release overnight.
Elsewhere, highlights tomorrow include the Riksbank rate decision, UK and US CPI, Germany ZEW survey, Eurozone employment, US API crude oil inventories and Fonterra dairy auction as well as scheduled comments from BoE’s Haldane.
