FxWirePro: USD/CAD climbs as loonie weakens

• USD/CAD rose higher on Monday   as   the Canadian dollar weakened as lower oil prices offset a weaker greenback.

•Oil prices fell as concerns over Russia and the Middle East were countered by oversupply jitters.

•Canada, a major energy exporter, remains highly sensitive to oil price fluctuations. Lower oil prices typically weigh on the loonie, as reduced energy revenues dampen demand for the Canadian dollar.

• This week, all eyes will be on Canada’s domestic GDP data, set for release on Friday. Economists and analysts are widely anticipating that the data will reflect continued economic softness, as the country grapples with trade uncertainties and subdued growth momentum.

• The report is expected to provide further insight into the health of the Canadian economy and could influence the Bank of Canada’s policy outlook in the near term.Top of FormBottom of Form
