The Canadian Dollar shows little movement against the USD amid declining crude oil prices, pressuring the commodity-linked currency.
USD/CAD traded flat around 1.3630 in Asian hours Thursday, following modest gains in the prior session. The pair’s stability comes despite downward pressure on the Canadian Dollar from falling crude oil prices.
Canada, the largest crude exporter to the U.S., relies heavily on oil revenues, making the CAD sensitive to energy market fluctuations. Recent declines in oil prices may limit the currency’s upside as traders assess the impact on economic growth and trade balances.
No immediate market reaction was reported, with the pair remaining within a tight range.
