On Wednesday, September 8, the Forex market was once again hot. However, the major currency pairs - EUR / USD has not changed much. Players have become interested in the peripheral currencies. For example, the Canadian dollar. Bank of Canada raised a key interest rate Wednesday by 25 basis points - up to 1%. Of course, it is a call to strengthen "Canadian", and on the session Tuesday, it closed at 1.0375 Canadian dollar / US dollar. However, on Thursday began weakening Canadian currency after the Bank of Canada reports that the low growth in the U.S. slowed the recovery of the Canadian economy. Time pair is trading at around 1,039 Canadian dollars / U.S. dollars. USA.
Another interesting aspect was the strengthening of conservative Japanese yen and Swiss franc. Players continue to flee from risk, and one dollar could buy 83.75 yen or 1,011 Swiss francs.
Thus, despite the general optimism on stock markets, the players continue to maintain skepticism about the economic growth of developed countries, so far away from the conservative buying currency. And even to improve the profitability of risky currencies (such as the Canadian dollar), can not compel the bidders refuse to let the low-income, but safe zones.
