A bullish theme in USDCAD remains intact and the pair is holding on to the bulk of its latest gains. Recent gains have resulted in the breach of a key resistance at 1.3925, the May 20 high and bull trigger. The break confirms a resumption of the bull cycle that started Jun 16. This paves the way for a climb towards 1.4019, a Fibonacci retracement point. On the downside, first key support lies at 1.3810, the 50-day EMA.    

Stocks actually stage late session recovery - as focus turns toward fundamentals instead of political turmoil:

• DJIA up 87.76 points (0.19%) at 46284.74
• S&P E-Mini Future up 27 points (0.4%) at 6719.5
• Nasdaq up 61.3 points (0.3%) at 22588.13

• US Govt likely to shutdown at midnight tonight - the first time since late Dec 2018 when the government shutterd for 35 consecutive days. Senate majority whip Barrasso: "SENATE TO VOTE THIS WEEKEND ON REOPENING GOVERNMENT", Bbg.
• The BLS plans to postpone key economic releases in the event of a shutdown: "BLS will suspend all operations. Economic data that are scheduled to be released during the lapse will not be released. All active data collection activities for BLS surveys will cease. The BLS website will not be updated with new content or restored in the event of a technical failure during a lapse." LINK
• That said, most of Wednesday's scheduled data should be released as most are generated by non-govt firms, Construction Spending the lone exception tomorrow as the U.S. Census Bureau the source. Updates to follow if/when an announcement of a closing is made.
• Treasuries trading mixed after the bell, curves twist steeper (2s10s +2.591 at 54.207) as Bonds led the decline in the second half, Tsy Dec'25 10Y contract (TYZ5) currently trades at 112-15.5 (-1) on decent cumulative volumes of 1.68M. 10Y yield at 4.1483% (+.0096).
• A short-term bear cycle in Treasury futures remains in play. Last Thursday’s sell-off resulted in a print below the 50-day EMA, currently at 112-10+. A clear break of this average would undermine a bull theme and signal scope for a deeper retracement. This would open 111-13+, the Aug 18 low and the next key support. On the upside, initial firm resistance to watch is 113-00, the Sep 24 high.
• Projected rate cut pricing gaining vs. late Monday levels (*): Oct'25 at -24.2bp (-22.7bp), Dec'25 at -44.2bp (-41.3bp), Jan'26 at -53.7bp (-50.7bp), Mar'26 at -64.7bp (-60.9bp).
