Selloff in loonie recently is great news for Cdn export competiveness. For cattle feeders wishing to guard the weakness in the loonie, here's an update on June call options.
June 76 1/2 cent calls trading around 1.25 cents or $1,250 U.S. per $100,000 Cdn dollar contract.
June 77 cent call trading around 1 cent or $1,000 U.S.
June 77 1/2 cent call trading around 8/10ths or $800 U.S.
Should the loonie continue to drop, improved strike prices will be available to currency hedgers.
Should the loonie recover this spring, these (near-the-money) strike prices would perform well covering potential currency-related losses in the cash cattle market.
