Fundamental view

Canada

The deficit on Canadian trade balance probably contracted to 0.300 billion CAD during May from 0.638 billion CAD in the prior month. The trade balance, as an indicator, measures the difference in value between nation’s exported and imported goods and services during the reported period. It reflects the net export of goods and services, or one of the components to form country’s Gross Domestic Product. Exports probably increased to 43.00 billion CAD in May from 42.83 billion CAD in April. Generally, exports reflect economic growth, while imports indicate domestic demand. In case the trade balance deficit shrank more than expected, this would provide support to Canadian dollar. Statistics Canada will release the official figure at 12:30 GMT.
