USD/CAD fell below 1.2680 in the past week after the Bank of Canada raised its benchmark rate by 25 basis points to 0.75%. While markets had priced in a rate hike, the central bank’s a much more hawkish rhetoric was a real surprise for them and busted the CAD further.

From the US we will get the US empire state manufacturing index on Monday, some housing data on Wednesday and Philly Fed Manufacturing index on Thursday.
