The U.S. Dollar is seeing modest gains this morning, driven by month-end flows amidst light holiday trading and a CME outage. Markets are focused on next week’s key economic data, which will influence the Federal Reserve’s December 10th meeting, with an 84.4 percent probability of a rate cut. Meanwhile, the Canadian Dollar has strengthened significantly against the U.S. Dollar, supported by a strong third-quarter GDP growth of 2.6 percent, driven by government defense spending and housing investment.
