Understanding CAD to USD Exchange Rates
The Canadian Dollar (CAD), often called the 'Loonie' after the loon on the one-dollar coin, is the currency of Canada. CAD/USD exchange rates are heavily influenced by commodity prices, particularly oil, as Canada is a major oil exporter. The pair is also affected by Bank of Canada monetary policy, US Federal Reserve decisions, economic data from both countries, and cross-border trade flows. The Canadian dollar tends to correlate with commodity prices, making it a commodity currency alongside the Australian and New Zealand dollars.
