Watching CAD after yesterday's crude dip

That dip in crude yesterday, even if temporary, felt like a decent reminder of the downside risk for the loonie. If oil continues to soften, I'll be watching $USDCAD more closely for a move back towards 1.4115, considering how sensitive it tends to be to energy prices. Still, the current range between 1.4066 and 1.4115 feels pretty tight for now, but a break could offer a clearer direction.

I'm not sure a temporary dip in crude is enough to warrant significant concern for the CAD's long-term trajectory. We've seen these fluctuations before without a sustained impact. What other factors are you considering beyond oil prices?

Good point. I'm also watching for that sensitivity to play out, especially if we see any sustained downward pressure on crude. The 1.4115 level definitely seems like a key resistance to break.
