EURCAD Euro vs Canadian Dollar

The Canadian dollar climbed against its most major counterparts in the Asian session on Tuesday amid rising risk appetite, as news that U.S. lawmakers reached a deal on border security funding to avoid a government shutdown lifted sentiment.

The deal reportedly include $1.375 billion in funding for Trump's border wall.

If approved by Trump, the deal would keep the government funded through September 30.

Hopes that a new round of U.S.-China trade talks would help resolve trade dispute propped up Asian shares.

Two days of high-level talks starting Thursday would involve U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Chinese Vice Premier Liu He.
