Oil prices continue to climb as tensions in Syria escalate with possible US intervention. There are a lot of factors to consider that could impact the Canadian dollar. Escalating tensions in the middle-east could result in much higher oil prices and this could derail global economic growth, which is typically US dollar positive. This could also result in the FED delaying tapering due to global tensions, which could be Canadian dollar positive.
Today’s Suggested Range USD/CAD: 1.0475 – 1.0575
