The loonie awaits the important release
Canada will release the level of CPI on August 21, at 15:30 MT time.

Last time, the indicator declined by 0.2%. Despite that, the release was still better than the forecast of -0.3%. As a result, the Canadian dollar strengthened.
• If the level of CPI is higher than the forecasts, the CAD will rise;
• If the level of CPI is lower than the forecasts, the CAD will fall.
