Canadian Dollar drifts higher on quiet Monday
- Canadian Dollar found room up top, bolstered by floundering Greenback.
- Canada to deliver update on CPI inflation on Tuesday.
- Risk appetite remains subdued as markets await signs of rate cuts.
The Canadian Dollar (CAD) found some room on the high side on Monday, easing higher as the US Dollar softly receded across the board. Investors have little meaningful information to chew on to kick off the new trading week, leaving market sentiment adrift.
Canada will deliver an update on Canadian Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation on Tuesday. Outside of Friday’s upcoming Canadian Gross Domestic Product (GDP) print, this week's agenda includes little else, save for a Monday appearance from Bank of Canada (BoC) Governor Tiff Macklem. USD traders will also have a long wait for US Durable Goods Orders and US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, both of which are due on Friday.

- Canada’s CPI inflation is expected to tick lower to 2.6% from 2.7% for the year ended in May.
- BoC’s own CPI core inflation metric is forecast to hold flat at 0.2% MoM.
- Broad-market focus will be looking ahead to Friday’s US PCE Price Index inflation print as investors continue to cling to hopes for a September rate cut from the Federal Reserve (Fed).

Canadian Dollar FAQs
The key factors driving the Canadian Dollar (CAD) are the level of interest rates set by the Bank of Canada (BoC), the price of Oil, Canada’s largest export, the health of its economy, inflation and the Trade Balance, which is the difference between the value of Canada’s exports versus its imports. Other factors include market sentiment – whether investors are taking on more risky assets (risk-on) or seeking safe-havens (risk-off) – with risk-on being CAD-positive. As its largest trading partner, the health of the US economy is also a key factor influencing the Canadian Dollar.
The Bank of Canada (BoC) has a significant influence on the Canadian Dollar by setting the level of interest rates that banks can lend to one another. This influences the level of interest rates for everyone. The main goal of the BoC is to maintain inflation at 1-3% by adjusting interest rates up or down. Relatively higher interest rates tend to be positive for the CAD. The Bank of Canada can also use quantitative easing and tightening to influence credit conditions, with the former CAD-negative and the latter CAD-positive.
The price of Oil is a key factor impacting the value of the Canadian Dollar. Petroleum is Canada’s biggest export, so Oil price tends to have an immediate impact on the CAD value. Generally, if Oil price rises CAD also goes up, as aggregate demand for the currency increases. The opposite is the case if the price of Oil falls. Higher Oil prices also tend to result in a greater likelihood of a positive Trade Balance, which is also supportive of the CAD.
While inflation had always traditionally been thought of as a negative factor for a currency since it lowers the value of money, the opposite has actually been the case in modern times with the relaxation of cross-border capital controls. Higher inflation tends to lead central banks to put up interest rates which attracts more capital inflows from global investors seeking a lucrative place to keep their money. This increases demand for the local currency, which in Canada’s case is the Canadian Dollar.
Macroeconomic data releases gauge the health of the economy and can have an impact on the Canadian Dollar. Indicators such as GDP, Manufacturing and Services PMIs, employment, and consumer sentiment surveys can all influence the direction of the CAD. A strong economy is good for the Canadian Dollar. Not only does it attract more foreign investment but it may encourage the Bank of Canada to put up interest rates, leading to a stronger currency. If economic data is weak, however, the CAD is likely to fall.
