Canadian Dollar News - Loonie nudges higher as USD weakens on CPI miss

The Canadian dollar rate today is holding firm, with the loonie inching higher as the greenback fades at the start of the week. The US dollar rate today remains under pressure after Friday’s softer-than-expected CPI print, with markets now looking ahead to key durable goods and housing data. For the moment, USD/CAD appears to be finding a tentative floor, but the absence of heavyweight Canadian releases leaves oil-price swings and U.S. macro surprises in charge of the near-term direction.

Today's Global Currency Highlights

A quick view of the Canadian dollar performance against the USD and other major currencies.

USD: US dollar comes under pressure at the start of the week after Friday’s CPI miss, as investors eye key central bank decisions, durables data next on the radar.
CAD: Canadian dollar edges higher amid fading USD demand, upside capped in the absence of domestic data, leaving oil price swings and US data as key drivers.
EUR: Euro attempts a recovery on USD softness but fails to capitalize on deepening French political crisis as markets eye ECB’s rate verdict later this week.
GBP: Sterling extends last week’s rebound, holds its bullish tone as stronger UK retail sales and upbeat flash PMI readings offer the BoE a measure of relief.
JPY: Yen rebounds from two-week lows but remains fragile, with upbeat PPI doing little to offset concerns over fading confidence in BoJ tightening prospects.
AUD: Australian dollar rallies as optimism around US-China trade relations provides a lift after reports that 100% tariffs on Chinese goods are off the table.
