**USD/CAD trades near 1.39–1.40 in mid-August 2026 amid a narrow interest-rate differential between the Federal Reserve and Bank of Canada, both holding policy rates steady near 2.25% amid mixed growth and energy-driven inflation.** Oil prices remain the dominant CAD driver, with Middle East supply risks supporting crude and providing a floor for the loonie, though the historical oil-CAD correlation has weakened. Consensus bank forecasts project modest CAD appreciation through year-end, targeting USD/CAD around 1.38–1.40 by December as U.S. data and any BoC easing path are repriced. Key near-term catalysts include upcoming CPI and employment releases, potential USMCA-related trade headlines, and FOMC/BoC communications that could shift rate expectations and volatility in the pair.
