Canadian Dollar Takes New US Tariffs 'In Stride' With Limited Market Reaction, BMO Says

The Canadian dollar has largely shrugged off the news of new U.S. tariffs and traded marginally stronger early on Tuesday after a brief dip, according to BMO Capital Markets.The loonie traded at C$1.4069 recently, up slightly from the day earlier level of C$1.4071. The White House said late Monday that the U.S. will impose 50% tariffs on a broad range of Canadian goods, effective Aug. 19.The duties target Canadian sectors including alcohol, dairy and autos."For markets, the loonie has taken the news in stride, slightly stronger since the announcement after a brief and mild dip," BMO Senior Economist Robert Kavcic said in the note. "Perhaps the market knows how this game is played now."For the Bank of Canada, the latest trade development reinforces that uncertainty around the U.S. trade relationship remains elevated, following Monday's "well-contained" consumer price index data, Kavcic said.

"The narrative will increasingly focus on whether (artificial intelligence) platforms, cloud providers and key cyclicals can match the strong bank prints without sparking renewed worries about margins or demand."The UK Maritime Trade Operations said Tuesday it has received multiple reports that a tanker was struck by an unknown projectile in the Strait of Hormuz. The US Central Command said Monday its forces completed their latest round of strikes against Iran.A senior official from Tehran told Reuters that mediators have forwarded a 10-day ceasefire proposal to Iran in an attempt to revive the interim deal reached with the US last month.

Emirati Shares Rebound Amid US-Iran De-escalation Hopes

Stocks in the United Arab Emirates rallied on Tuesday, buoyed by prospects of a de-escalation between the US and Iran.At the close of trading, the FTSE ADX General Index gained 0.347%, while the DFM General Index was 0.278% in the green.The US Central Command completed its 10th consecutive night of strikes on Iran, with US President Donald Trump stating in a social media post that the Middle Eastern country will pay "many times over" for the death of American soldiers. However, investors breathed a sigh of relief on news of a 10-day ceasefire proposed by mediators to resume negotiations between the two countries.Oil prices rose and were trading at nearly $90.567 per barrel at 3:40 pm UAE time after Yemen's Houthis threatened a naval blockade against Saudi Arabia, posing further risks of disruption in energy supplies."With the Gulf's primary maritime outlet largely closed, the market is increasingly dependent on Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline and Red Sea terminals to maintain export flows. Any disruption at Bab el-Mandeb would therefore threaten not only Saudi shipments but one of the few remaining routes capable of compensating for the severe reduction in Hormuz traffic," Rystad Energy senior vice president and head of geopolitical analysis Jorge Leon commented. "If a ceasefire does not materialize and Hormuz remains largely closed while the Houthi threat to Red Sea shipping intensifies, the risk of a significant rebound in oil prices would be substantial."Turning to the region's corporate side, Aldar Properties (ADX:ALDAR) launched its new 592-apartment residential community named The Canopies on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. Shares of the real estate developer closed the session 0.53% higher.Meanwhile in Dubai, Emirates Central Cooling Systems (DFM:EMPOWER), d/b/a Empower, awarded a contract for the development of a new district cooling plant in the Al Sufouh 2 area in Dubai.
