The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps issued an emergency statement announcing a large-scale missile attack on US-related oil and energy facilities in the region. This operation was a direct and reciprocal retaliation for the earlier attacks on Iranian energy infrastructure on March 18. The statement indicated that the retaliatory action aimed to target energy facilities "with US interests and US ownership." The statement emphasized that Iran originally did not want the war to escalate to the energy sector, nor did it wish to affect the economies of neighboring countries, but the enemys provocations have led the war into a "new phase." The statement confirmed that the Iranian armed forces have carried out multiple rounds of strikes to ensure that the damage suffered by the enemy is on par with the damage to Iranian infrastructure. The statement also warned that if the attacks continue, Iran will expand the scope of its strikes to all energy infrastructure of US and Israeli allies, until it is "completely destroyed."PetroReconcavo, Brazils oil company, estimates its proven oil reserves at 80.1 million barrels by the end of 2025.Security sources say Iraqi air defense forces intercepted and shot down a drone that was approaching Baghdad airport.According to The Information, a spokesperson for Meta Platforms (META.O) confirmed the security incident, stating that no user data was improperly handled.

USD/CAD Bears Anticipate Additional Losses Towards $1.34

Following a three-day losing trend, the USD/CAD continues to trade near the weekly low around 1.3440 in the early hours of Thursday.

 

In doing so, the Loonie pair justifies yesterday's pullback from the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the February-March uptrend, as well as yesterday's retreat from the 100-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA), in conjunction with negative MACD signals.

 

Notably, the RSI (14) line is approaching the oversold region, indicating the USD/CAD exchange rate has limited downside potential.

 

Consequently, a horizontal area containing multiple lows marked since March 3 around 1.3400 becomes the most crucial support for pair traders to track. In addition, the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level encircling 1.3390 provides immediate support.

 

A irregular decline towards February's low of 1.3262 cannot be ruled out if the USD/CAD defies RSI conditions and descends below 1.3390.

 

In contrast, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level around 1.3490, also known as the golden Fibonacci ratio, restricts immediate USD/CAD recovery movements prior to the 1.3535 100-exponential moving average (EMA) barrier.

 

If the USD/CAD exchange rate remains firmer than 1.3535, a convergence of the 200-exponential moving average (EMA) and 50% Fibonacci retracement around 1.3565 will pose a formidable obstacle for buyers.

 

At the time of publication, USD/CAD investors should remain cautious unless they observe a clear break above the previous support line from early February, which was near 1.3670.
