On August 21st, it was reported that on August 20th, Wang Xingxing, Chairman, General Manager, and Chief Technology Officer of Unitree Robotics, stated at the 2026 World Robot Conference that Unitree Robotics continues to invest in the field of AI models, which is currently the area where Unitree invests the most funds and human resources. At the conference, Wang Xingxing publicly explained for the first time Unitree Robotics exploration of the concept of "self-evolution of physical AI robots." He stated that while AI has been widely applied to programming and various development processes in recent years, its application in the robotics field remains insufficient. Therefore, Unitree Robotics is promoting the construction of a self-evolution system for physical AI robot models: relying on cutting-edge large-scale models, setting corresponding rules, empirical constraints, and tool boundaries, allowing the model to autonomously search for cutting-edge papers, high-quality research results, and open-source solutions, and automatically generate robot control code.Japans national CPI rose 2% year-on-year in July, below the expected 1.90% and the previous reading of 1.60%.Japans core CPI rose 1.8% year-on-year in July, below the expected 1.80% and the previous reading of 1.60%.Japans July core CPI annual rate will be released in ten minutes.On August 21st, the Loan Prime Rate (LPR) remained unchanged for the 15th consecutive month. The Peoples Bank of China authorized the National Interbank Funding Center to announce on August 20th that the 1-year LPR was 3.0%, and the LPR for maturities of 5 years or more was 3.5%. Analysts believe that considering the current policy interest rates and banks net interest margins, the LPR remaining unchanged is in line with expectations. Since late July, the DR (Deposit-taking Financial Institutions Bond Repurchase Rate) benchmark lending rate has been continuously implemented, and the efficiency of LPR quotations is expected to further improve in the future.

The USD/CAD pair retraced below 1.3450 in the early Asian session as the US Dollar Index (DXY) lost upside momentum after reaching the key resistance level of 102.00. As investors anticipate the release of the United States/Canada Employment data, the Canadian dollar is expected to deliver a dazzling performance.

 

As a consequence of a decline in Job Openings and sluggish additions of new positions, as measured by Automatic Data Processing, firms have slackened recruitment efforts, thereby alleviating the tight US labor market. (ADP). This has led to expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will keep interest rates unchanged at its May meeting.

 

In the interim, S&P500 futures have resumed their downward trend, indicating a cautious market sentiment.

 

Employment data will influence the Canadian Dollar. The consensus estimate for Net Change in Employment is 12K, which is a decrease from the previous release of 21.8K. The estimated unemployment rate is 5.1%, up from 5.0% previously.

 

The USD/CAD exchange rate is exhibiting an Inverted Flag pattern on an hourly time frame. The Inverted Flag is a trend-following pattern that consists of a protracted consolidation followed by a decline. Participants prefer to enter an auction after a bearish bias has been established, and current vendors increase their position size during the consolidation phase of a chart pattern.

 

The Canadian dollar was unable to maintain a position above the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.3458, indicating that further declines are imminent.

 

Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) has an upper limit of 60.00. A violation of the unfavorable 20.00-40.00 range will trigger downward momentum.

 

A break below the low of April 04, 1.3406, would expose the asset to a fresh six-week low around 1.3350, the low of February 6 followed by round-number support at 1.3300.

 

In an alternative scenario, a move above the psychological resistance of 1.3500 would lend momentum to US Dollar supporters, propelling the asset toward the 31- and 29-March highs of 1.3559 and 1.3619, respectively.
