We’ll be getting both GDP release from Canada and U.S.  I would be more interested in the U.S. release as it is the Adv. GDP quarterly release and it has more potential of moving the market than the Canada GDP m/m release… It is important that you only concentrate on one of these releases instead of both, as the market will be very tough to read with one release, let along 2 releases together.

Here is the forecast for Canada GDP

Canada GDP m/m 03/31/10

by Henry Liu on March 30, 2010

8:30am NY Time Canada GDP m/m   Forecast 0.5%      Previous 0.6%
ACTION: USD/CAD         BUY 0.2%     SELL 0.8%

We’ll be trading the Canadian GDP release (m/m) today, and GDP is defined (by wikipedia) as:

“the market value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time. It is also considered the sum of value added at every stage of production of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time.”

Canada GDP m/m 03/01/2010

8:30am NY Time Canada GDP m/m   Forecast 0.4%      Previous 0.4%
ACTION: USD/CAD         BUY 0.1%     SELL 0.7%

We’ll be focusing on a possible trade from the Canadian GDP release (m/m) today, and GDP is defined (by wikipedia) as:

“the market value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time. It is also considered the sum of value added at every stage of production of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time.”

Canada GDP m/m 11/30/09

by Henry Liu on November 30, 2009

8:30am NY Time Canada GDP m/m   Forecast 0.4%      Previous -0.1%
ACTION: USD/CAD         BUY 0.1%     SELL 0.7%

Today we’ll be trading the Canadian GDP month on month release, which is defined (from wikipedia) as “the market value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time. It is also considered the sum of value added at every stage of production of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time.”  As GDP is basically the measurement of the “economy” as a whole and it certainly has a strong impact on the cash rate of the CAD, it’ll be a highly anticipated news event.
