Summary
The US Dollar to Canadian Dollar (USD/CAD) exchange rate has edged lower towards 1.4160 this week as the Canadian Dollar modestly outperformed most of its major peers. Scotiabank believes the outlook for the Canadian Dollar is beginning to improve as interest-rate spreads stabilise and economic data become less negative.
