USD/CAD trades higher on President Trump's comments on trade conflict with China
CAD - Canadian Dollar
USD/CAD is trading higher towards 1.35 on President Donald Trump's comments over the weekend on the trade conflict with China. In his twitter thread, Trump said that tariffs on Chinese goods are set to increase to 25 percent from 10 percent on Friday and that he would not let China renegotiate the deal. Concerns over a long lasting trade war are also impacting the price of oil today, putting further pressure on the Loonie.
