Fundamental view

Annualized number of housing starts in Canada probably declined to 190 000 in June from 198 324 in the previous month. Housing starts are considered as a key indicator, reflecting nation’s housing sector’ resilience. In case the number of housing starts rose more than expected, this would provide support to the loonie. Canada’s Mortgage and Housing Corporation will release the official data at 12:15 GMT.
