CAD to USD Market Data
Canadian dollar (CAD) to US dollar (USD) market data - latest interbank exchange rate, trend, chart & historic rates.
Bias
CAD/USD remains range-bound near the 90-day average, near the lower end of its 3-month range. Oil strength supports CAD, but firm US payrolls cap gains; narrower BoC/Fed gap cushions CAD if oil stays firm.
Key drivers
- Rate gap: The BoC has moved toward a balanced stance, while the Fed is still expected to ease over the next cycle; the narrower policy gap provides a modest cushion for CAD if oil stays firm.
- Oil: Oil now sits above its longer-term average and has shown swings; a sustained lift in crude prices tends to lift CAD via stronger export prospects.
- Macro: US employment data that shows the job market remains firm puts dollar demand on the radar and can cap CAD strength.
Range
CAD/USD is likely to drift within the 3-month range, with a tendency to hover near the lower end.
What could change it
- Upside risk: a fresh oil rally or clearer signs that the Fed will delay further easing could lift CAD.
- Downside risk: stronger US payrolls and a hawkish Fed signal keep the USD firm and CAD softer
