Here is their view, courtesy of eFXnews:

Societe Generale FX Strategy Research argues that if the USD can keep at least a modest bid going into this week’s FOMC meeting, there is a risk USD/CAD can see a further spike higher in USD/CAD towards 1.40 before the absolute level of CAD becomes irresistible.

“Long USD/CAD is at best playing with fire, even if it looks as though the place to go short is closer to 1.40,” SocGen adds.

USD/CAD is trading circa 1.3667 as of writing.
