  "account": "TD Securities analysts forecast the Bank of Canada (BoC) will adopt a dovish tone and deliver limited guidance during a meeting as trade tensions escalate with the United States. They view the Bank as relatively passive, leaving the Canadian Dollar (CAD) exposed as a funding currency. Although TD Securities maintains a 1.39 year-end forecast, they doubt the USD/CAD pair can stay above 1.40 in a bearish USD environment. The BoC's role will be crucial as markets await updates from the Bank following US tariff announcements. Sidelined, the BoC leaves the CAD vulnerable as a funding currency, with the Norwegian Krone (NOK) and Mexican Peso (MXN) supported more by carry and cleaner macro factors. Meanwhile, other currencies face their own challenges: GBP/USD loses momentum after reaching 1.3550, while EUR/USD holds steady around 1.1600 amid Middle East tensions. Gold nears $4,450 in European trading, buoyed by a softer USD and Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's hawkish comments. Dogecoin, meanwhile, struggles near $0.081 following a 12% decline last week, with mixed technical signals and profit-taking among large holders. The oil market remains mixed, with a record US diesel crack spread indicating underlying volatility.",
  "summary": "TD Securities’ macro team, including Andrew Kelvin and Jayati Bharadwaj, expects the Bank of Canada (BoC) to adopt a dovish tone and provide limited guidance as trade tensions with the US rise.",
