Key Quotes

“Headline CPI is expected to be flat, but the base effect would lift the year-over-year rate to 1.7% from 1.2%.  Retail sales were likely lifted by auto sales, without which they would be flat.  We suspect the risk is on the downside after November's outsized 1.1% rise (1.4% excluding autos).  The US dollar is advancing against the Canadian dollar for the third consecutive session.  The greenback is snapping a three-week decline against the Loonie.  The CAD1.3380 area is an important retracement target, and surpassing it could spur a move toward CAD1.3460-CAD1.3500 initially.”
