I did not interpret this firm support as bearish for the Canadian dollar because at the time I assumed oil would at worst remain in a tight trading range. Even as <a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/2015\/07\/08\/t2108-update-150708\/\" target=\"_blank\">I began to transition my trading bias on oil to bearish<\/a>, I did not even consider another rate cut as a real enough possibility from the Bank of Canada. This blind spot was a result of my commitment to a longer-term bullishness on Canada, its economy, and its currency; I described my change from bearishness to bullishness in several pieces this year. The headwinds blasting at this bullishness remind me why in almost all cases I prefer to trade currencies with a short leash!<\/p>\n<p>After reviewing the Monetary Policy Report (MPR), reading <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankofcanada.ca\/2015\/07\/opening-statement-150715\/\" target=\"_blank\">the opening statement<\/a> of Governor Stephen S.

The Bank is leaning ever more heavily on leveraging its exchange rate to push exports of non-energy related products into catalyst for GDP growth.<\/p>\n<p>Three charts from the MPR that essentially tell the entire story for me.<\/p>\n<p>{snip}<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_29460\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29460\" style=\"width: 543px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaTermsOfTradeAndIncomes.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaTermsOfTradeAndIncomes.png\" alt=\"A marked decline in Canada&#039;s measures of incomes\" width=\"553\" height=\"381\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaTermsOfTradeAndIncomes.png 553w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaTermsOfTradeAndIncomes-300x207.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 553px) 100vw, 553px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-29460\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A marked decline in Canada&#8217;s measures of incomes<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<strong>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankofcanada.ca\/2015\/07\/mpr-2015-07-15\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bank of Canada Monetary Policy Report, July, 2015<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>{snip}<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_29463\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29463\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaExportsByExchangeRateSensitivity.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaExportsByExchangeRateSensitivity.png\" alt=\"Only a lower exchange rate has prevented Canada&#039;s economic performance from being even worse\" width=\"550\" height=\"433\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29463\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaExportsByExchangeRateSensitivity.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaExportsByExchangeRateSensitivity-300x236.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-29463\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Only a lower exchange rate has prevented Canada&#8217;s economic performance from being even worse<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<strong>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankofcanada.ca\/2015\/07\/mpr-2015-07-15\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bank of Canada Monetary Policy Report, July, 2015<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>{snip}<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_29462\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29462\" style=\"width: 543px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaComponentsOfExports.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaComponentsOfExports.png\" alt=\"A dangerous decline in exports\" width=\"553\" height=\"415\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29462\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaComponentsOfExports.png 553w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/150723_CanadaComponentsOfExports-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 553px) 100vw, 553px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-29462\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A dangerous decline in exports<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>The dynamics shown in the above charts suggest to me that the Canadian dollar likely DOES need to get even weaker for Canada&#8217;s economy to regain its footing.
