Trump: Carney called yesterday and said ‘let’s make a deal’ | Forexlive

• Says Carney will come to the White House within the next week

That’s tentatively a good sign. USD/CAD is at the lows of the day, down 35 pips to 1.3798.

Donald Trump says Mark Carney will visit the White House “within the next week, or less.” He says Carney told him “let’s make a deal” during their phone call yesterday. “He couldn’t have been nicer. He’s a very nice gentleman.”

Trump dismissed Carney’s “betrayal” line as electioneering. “I think we’re going to have a great relationship,” he says. “He was running for office. They both hated Trump — and it was the one that hated Trump the least, I think, that won.”

It’s bizarre that we live in a world where this is market moving stuff.
