Fundamental view

The number of employed people in Canada probably increased by 26 000 last month compared to May, according to the median forecast by experts. In May compared to April, the number of employed in the country rose by 25 800. Creation of new job positions is considered of utmost importance for consumer spending. In case employment in the country increases more than expected, the loonie would be supported.

In addition, the rate of unemployment in Canada probably remained unchanged at 7.0% in June. Lower than expected unemployment would have a bullish effect on Canadian dollar. Statistics Canada is expected to release its official report at 12:30 GMT.
