- On March 8th, the Bank of Canada (BOC) is anticipated to maintain its interest rates at 4.5%, following a record-breaking pace of 425 basis point rises over the previous ten months.

- The psychological support level of.6700 is preventing the AUD/USD pair from reaching new lows, and on the daily time frame, the 100 SMA appears poised to cross above the 200 SMA.
- The AUD/USD pair could either rebound from its present levels and retest prior areas of interest, depending on market expectations and risk-taking behaviour, or it might shatter its.6700 support and fall to prior support levels of.6600 or.6550.
- ADP’s report is anticipated to indicate an increase of 195K, but JOLTS job vacancies are anticipated to decline on March 10 from 11.01M to 10.61M, which could reduce NFP rumours.
- The Fed may have more ability to hike interest rates even higher or to keep them there for longer than anticipated if the NFP report is another solid one.
