USD/CAD Surges After NFP

The US Dollar appreciated by 95 basis points against the Canadian Dollar on Friday, following the US and Canadian Employment data set release on Friday at 13:30 GMT.

The Bureau of Labor and Statistics released the US Non-Farm Employment Change data, which came out better-than-expected of 266K compared with the forecast of 181K.

According to the official release: “Notable job gains occurred in health care and in professional and technical services. Employment rose in manufacturing, reflecting the return of workers from a strike.”

By and large, the pair will likely to make a brief retracement down within this session.
