USDCAD Completes A Correction Within An Uptrend

USDCAD Completes A Correction Within An Uptrend

Globe and Mail10-04-2025
The USD/CAD came nicely to the downside last week out of a bearish triangle that was placed in wave B. But then the market made a sharp reversal; We see a strong and interesting rebound away from the 1.40 region, which raises the possibility that a low is in place, especially as price already recovered above the 1.4230 level, where an overlap invalidated any higher-degree bearish impulsive interpretation. That's a strong indication that a bottom may be forming and that we should be aware of more upside after the current intraday retracement which can be close to a support. So from a minimum perspective, we expect at least one more leg up to around 1.44.
The reason why USDCAD can stay in the uptrend is because of bearish Crude oil, which can keep Canadian dollar weak. If we also consider a bigger corrective recovery for the USdollar Index, then USDCAD can be easily headed higher.

George Weston Limited Announces Three-for-One Stock Split Français

TORONTO, July 29, 2025 /CNW/ - (TSX: WN) – George Weston Limited ("Weston" or "Company") announced today that its Board of Directors approved a stock split of the Company's outstanding common shares ("Common Shares"). The split will be implemented by way of a stock dividend where Weston will issue to shareholders two additional Common Shares for each Common Share held (i.e. a three-for-one stock split). The stock split will be effective at the close of business on August 18, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 14, 2025. Weston is undertaking the stock split to ensure its Common Shares remain accessible to retail investors and employees who participate in the Company's Employee Share Ownership Plan, and to improve the liquidity of the Common Shares. The stock split will not dilute shareholders' equity. As the aggregate declared amount of the stock dividend on the Common Shares is nominal, there will be no Canadian income tax payable by shareholders related to this transaction. For more information, shareholders should consult with their own tax advisor. The Common Shares will begin trading ex-dividend (post-split) on the Toronto Stock Exchange at the opening of business on August 19, 2025. Common shares will trade on a "due bill" basis from the opening of business on August 14, 2025 until the close of business on August 18, 2025, inclusively, where shares will carry the right to receive the additional shares to be issued in connection with the stock dividend.

Loblaw to Install Canada's Largest Rooftop Solar System Français

The solar array is expected to generate up to 25% of the total energy consumed at the company's largest distribution centre while contributing to its net-zero goals. BRAMPTON, ON, July 29, 2025 /CNW/ - Loblaw Companies Limited is taking a powerful step towards expanding its renewable energy ambitions, with the planned installation of Canada's largest rooftop solar system at its East Gwillimbury Distribution Centre in Ontario. The 7.5 MW installation will cover approximately 435,000 square feet of roof space – equivalent to the size of more than seven football fields – and generate over 8,500,000 kWh annually of clean on-site power. This installation is targeted to generate up to 25 per cent of the total electricity consumed at the Distribution Centre (DC). "From the moment we began construction on our East Gwillimbury Distribution Centre, we knew we needed to take full advantage of the rooftop space to generate clean, renewable energy for the facility," explained Tom Marson, VP, Building Technology & Energy, Loblaw Companies Limited. "This solar installation will work alongside several other sustainable features at the DC, including fully-electric shunt trucks, and advanced building energy management systems." "This installation clearly demonstrates our commitment to taking decisive action as we work to achieve net-zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2040 for our enterprise operating footprint," added Marson. Loblaw will partner again with Great Circle Solar, a leader in Canadian renewable energy, to develop, own and operate this system. The two companies have worked together since 2012 to achieve a growing number of distributed energy solutions, including rooftop solar energy, at over 90 projects at our facilities and communities across Canada. "This marque project will be operational in 2026. It is by far the largest of its kind ever contracted in Canada and one of the largest on a single rooftop in North America. It marks a significant milestone in our important partnership with Loblaw," said Clarke Herring, President, Great Circle Solar. "For over a decade, we've worked side by side to bring renewable energy solutions to communities across Canada. Loblaw's continued leadership and long-term commitment to clean renewable energy is consistent and evident." For nearly two decades, Loblaw has remained committed to fighting climate change. In 2024, the company achieved a 16% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions (vs. 2020 baseline) and invested over $40 million in more than 500 carbon reduction projects.

Saskatchewan remains Canada's most attractive jurisdiction for mining investment

VANCOUVER, BC, July 29, 2025 /CNW/ - Saskatchewan remains Canada's top-rated jurisdiction for mining investment, ranking 7 th globally in the Annual Survey of Mining Companies released today by the Fraser Institute, an independent, non-partisan Canadian public policy think-tank. Finland is the top-ranked jurisdiction worldwide for mining investment in this year's survey, followed by Nevada. "The Fraser Institute's mining survey is the most comprehensive report on not only mineral potential but also government policies that either encourages or discourages mining investment," said Elmira Aliakbari, director of the Fraser Institute's Centre for Natural Resource Studies and co-author of the study. This year's report ranks 82 jurisdictions around the world based on their geologic attractiveness (minerals and metals) and government policies that encourage or discourage exploration and investment, including permit times. On overall investment attractiveness, Saskatchewan ranks in the global top ten for the sixth time in seven years, followed by Newfoundland & Labrador at 8 th. In terms of policy factors alone, Saskatchewan ranks in the global top three while Newfoundland & Labrador ranks sixth and Alberta ranks 9 th. However, some Canadian jurisdictions are not capitalizing on their strong mineral potential due to a lack of a solid policy environment that would attract investment. For instance, Yukon and Manitoba, despite being among the top ten most attractive jurisdictions for mineral endowment, rank 40 th and 43 rd respectively when considering policy factors alone. In addition, British Columbia continues to perform poorly on the policy front largely due to investor concerns over disputed land claims and protected areas. Overall, uncertainty surrounding protected areas, land claims disputes and environmental regulations along with regulatory duplication and inconsistency continue to hinder mining investment in various Canadian jurisdictions. "A sound and predictable regulatory regime coupled with competitive fiscal policies help make a jurisdiction attractive in the eyes of mining investors," said Aliakbari. "Policymakers in every province and territory should understand that mineral deposits alone are not enough to attract investment." Overall investment attractiveness for Canadian provinces and territories The Fraser Institute is an independent Canadian public policy research and educational organization with offices in Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, and Montreal and ties to a global network of think-tanks in 87 countries. Its mission is to improve the quality of life for Canadians, their families and future generations by studying, measuring and broadly communicating the effects of government policies, entrepreneurship and choice on their well-being.
