The US dollar is at the best levels of the day as North American traders greet a double-day of central bank decisions. First up is the Bank of Canada at 9:45 am ET and then at 2 pm ET we get the FOMC.
The dollar bid undoubtedly highlights some angst about tariffs as the White House continues to talk about imposing them on Mexico, China and Canada on the weekend. Treasury yields pulling in the opposite direction of the dollar as they decline 2-3 bps across the curve.
Here's BMO's Ian Lyngen on tariffs:
