The wide US-Canada interest rate differential remains the dominant driver of USD/CAD positioning, with the Federal Reserve holding the funds rate at 3.50%-3.75% while the Bank of Canada anchors policy at 2.25%. Hawkish Fed communications, including Chair Warsh’s Jackson Hole remarks, have sustained market-implied odds of a September hike near 50%, widening Treasury-Canada yield spreads and supporting the greenback even as August nonfarm payrolls disappointed. Recent Canadian employment gains and firmer Q2 GDP have bolstered the loonie, pulling the pair back toward 1.38 amid softening US data. Traders are watching the September 11 CPI release, September 16 FOMC decision, and ongoing USMCA tariff negotiations for signals on whether the gap narrows or persists through year-end. Oil prices near $91-95 add two-way risk given the loonie’s diminished petro-currency correlation.
