USD/CAD attracts buyers during American trading hours on Thursday as traders digest the latest US economic data, which keeps hawkish Federal Reserve (Fed) expectations intact and supports the US Dollar (USD).
Norman Liebke at Commerzbank reports that the Bank of Canada raised rates to 2.5% and signalled a data-dependent approach. Inflation is projected above target until mid-2028, with growth risks centred on US tariffs but supported by energy investment.
Francesco Pesole at ING highlights that the Bank of Canada’s (BoC) 25bp hike to 2.50% is unlikely to be the last, with another move expected in early 2027 and risks of an earlier increase if energy prices stay high.
USD/CAD remains subdued for the second successive day, trading around 1.3990 during European hours on Thursday.
The USD/CAD pair loses ground to near 1.3975 during the early Asian trading hours on Thursday. The Canadian Dollar (CAD) strengthens against the US Dollar (USD) after the Bank of Canada (BoC) delivers a rate hike.
The Bank of Canada (BoC) raised its rate to 2.50% on Wednesday and the Fed held at 3.75%-4.00%, so the Fed's lead shrank by a quarter-point in one session.
