The Canadian Dollar (CAD) strengthens against the US Dollar (USD) on Wednesday as the Greenback remains under broad pressure amid a firmly dovish Federal Reserve (Fed) outlook. At the time of writing, USD/CAD is trading around 1.3950, edging close to one-month lows as bearish momentum builds.
Gold (XAU/USD) trades slightly softer on Wednesday as investors adopt a cautious stance ahead of the upcoming US economic data releases due later in the day. At the time of writing, XAU/USD is consolidating around the $4,200 psychological mark after easing from an intraday high near $4,228.
The USD/JPY pair struggles to capitalize on the previous day's move higher to levels beyond the 156.00 mark and edges lower during the Asian session on Wednesday. Spot prices currently trade around the 155.75 region, though the downtick lacks follow-through or a bearish conviction.
