USD/CAD has edged lower after failing to hold its overnight recovery, with the US dollar rate today still struggling for direction following this week’s softer inflation data. Attention now turns to US housing starts, building permits and industrial production for fresh signals on the economy and Federal Reserve outlook. Meanwhile, the Canadian dollar rate today remains supported by rising crude prices as escalating US-Iran tensions revive concerns over disruption to oil supplies through the Strait of Hormuz. However, the same geopolitical risks are generating some safe-haven demand for USD, helping limit further downside in the pair.
