CAD to USD 2025 Forecasts

Analysis of recent loonie → dollar forecasts for 2025. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest Canadian dollar to US dollar performance and trends.

 

The CAD to USD exchange rate has recently demonstrated resilience, currently near 0.7257, reflecting a 7-day high and remaining within a stable range of 0.7188 to 0.7369. This stability is particularly notable given the recent volatility in oil prices, with crude oil fluctuating within a significant 25.6% range from $62.78 to $78.85, currently priced at $68.05, which is 1.0% below its 3-month average. As one of the world's largest oil exporters, Canada's economic health closely correlates with oil price movements, and analysts suggest that a recovery in oil prices typically strengthens the Canadian dollar.

Recent forecasts highlight a complex interplay influencing the Canadian dollar. The drop in Canadian inflation to 1.7% has spurred speculation of potential interest rate cuts by the Bank of Canada, with the likelihood of a cut rising to 70%. Market sentiment is cautious, given the increasing trade tensions with the United States, especially after the U.S. raised tariffs on Canadian goods to 35%. Economists indicate that these trade dynamics may add additional pressure on the CAD, especially in light of recent disappointing U.S. producer price data that has shielded the U.S. dollar.

The USD itself has been buoyed by risk-averse trading sentiment, amid rising tariff concerns and cautious economic outlooks, particularly related to U.S.-China trade relations. Experts suggest that upcoming U.S. GDP estimates and jobless claims data could further influence the dollar's strength, particularly if outcomes diverge from expectations.

In summary, while the CAD has shown resilience thanks to oil prices and potential monetary policy changes, ongoing trade tensions and U.S. economic data may introduce volatility. As the markets navigate through these mixed signals, stakeholders should remain alert to shifts in sentiment and policy that could significantly impact the CAD to USD exchange rate in the coming weeks.
