USD/CAD Falls for Third Day as Safe-Haven Demand and December Fed Hike Bets Ease
Binance News - According to Jin10, USD/CAD fell for a third consecutive trading day during Friday’s Asian session, trading near 1.3970. Despite renewed diplomatic efforts in the Middle East easing pressure on oil markets and weighing on the commodity-linked Canadian dollar, the pair continued to decline.

Traders currently put the probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike at nearly 75%, down from 84.2% the previous day.
