Fundamental view

Annualized number of housing starts in Canada probably decreased to 192 000 in March from 192 094 in February. Housing starts are considered as a key indicator, reflecting nations housing sector resilience. In case the number of housing starts increased more than expected, this would provide support to the loonie. Canadas Mortgage and Housing Corporation will release the official numbers at 12:15 GMT.

The number of building permits in the country probably declined 2.0% in February compared to a month ago, according to the median estimate by experts. In January permits issued by the government were 8.5% more. Building permits, as an indicator, provide information regarding demand in Canadas housing market. A higher than anticipated number would be supportive for the Canadian dollar. Statistics Canada is to release its monthly report at 12:30 GMT.
