CAD review

An indecisive greenback helped the loonie eke out a gain though it remained largely little changed on the week. 

The loonie has consolidated its big gain from last week that stemmed from a less dovish sounding Bank of Canada whose better outlook was backed up in data showing slightly above forecast inflation and the strongest month of retail spending in eight. 

Canada's light week of data can leave it prone to profit-taking though oil movements should also dictate direction.
