🧠 Summary
The Canadian dollar dropped 0.5% to a three-week low against the U.S. dollar due to strong U.S. economic data boosting dollar demand. Canadian investors increased foreign securities buying, while oil prices rose and Canadian bond yields showed mixed trends.
💡 Why this signal?
- The robust U.S. economic data strengthens the dollar's appeal, pulling capital away from the Canadian dollar.
- Investor confidence in U.S. assets rises due to steady corporate earnings and consumer spending, weakening USDCAD.
- Despite higher oil prices, which normally support the Canadian dollar, the dominant effect of U.S. economic strength leads to loonie weakness.
