Earn Daily Interest While in this Currency Investment

Written by: Sean Hyman

Article Overview: Invest in this currency pair and not only will you profit from the exchange rate moving, but you will also be paid interest on a daily basis. It's at the beginning of an uptrend, and fundamental forces will support it as it continues this trend.

Earn Daily Interest While in this Currency Investment

As I go through my day as a currency trader/investor, I scan the long term charts to see what may be emerging. Today, I ran across a great way to earn some interest EVERY DAY and be in an investment that is headed higher. Not many investments in the world can boast that right now.

However, the AUD/CAD currency pair (Australia vs. Canada) can boast just that.

The downtrend (red line) has been broken. A spike low was put in place back in October and the price hasn’t looked back ever since. How many investments can say that? Most stocks, mutual funds and ETFs sure can’t right now!

Yet in stocks, at best you normally earn QUARTERLY interest but in this currency pair, you earn it DAILY each day at 5pm EST.

What are the fundamental forces at work that have produced this uptrend?

Here’s why I believe the uptrend will continue overall. There are several factors but I will hone in on two very important ones right now: Interest rates and Quantitative Easing.

Why interest rates? Australia’s currency yields 3% a year right now while Canada just cut theirs today to 0.25%. Therefore, that 2.75% difference can be earned on a daily basis. That’s enticing to investors and will encourage them to buy the higher yielding currency and to sell the lower yielding one.

Think of it this way. If you had a savings account at your bank that earned 0.25% and across town there was a bank offering 3%, which bank would you be inclined to stick your savings into? Of course, the 3% one. Currency investors are no different.

So interest rates will favor the Aussie dollar over the Loonie (nick name for the Canadian dollar).
What the heck is Quantitative Easing? Even though this phrase sounds complicated, it’s actually very simple. It’s simply when a central bank prints a ton of money. In this case 125 billion Canadaian dollars (thus far).

The concept is simple. Anytime you make more of something, it’s value gets diminished because it’s so prevalent. However, the more rare something is, the more it tends to rise in value because it’s so scarce.
So when the Canadian central bank prints more dollars (aye!), it dilutes the the value of that money. This now bringsa about two very serious road blocks for the Canadian dollar. Interest rates don’t give you an incentive to hold Canadian dollars (CAD) when there are others out there that literally pay 12 times higher (3% vs. 0.25%)! Also, Australia has resisted emploring Quantitative Easing while Canada is embracing it.

Therefore, when one country purposefully “waters down” their currency and another does not, it only makes sense that the latter should rise against the former.

Now there are other economic factors too that favor Australia over Canada...however, I wanted to point out two that were so important that they alone could help to keep this uptrend intact.

Advertisement that sales - Plan your marketing programme. It should include commitment to capital resources. If you run a small business, you aren't likely to have a generous enough advertising budget that will allow you to run costly branding or campaign ads. Every advertisement you run must convey to your prospect a solid offer and attractive reasons to act quickly, and result in increased sales and an enhanced image of your company. Good advertising always pays its own way through increased sales and profits, improved cost-effectiveness, reduced selling costs and shortened selling cycles. A useful formula that will help you increase the effectiveness of your advertising efforts is A-I-D-A, which stands for Attention, Interest, Desire and Action. When creating an advertisement, always remind yourself that it should: (1) capture your prospects' Attention, (2) arouse their Interest in your offer, (3) create their Desire for your product or service, and (4) provide a powerful spur to Action, that is, turn your prospect into buyers. Remember, bad advertising is an unproductive expense, and good advertising is an investment in future profits!
