Currency & FXEnergy Markets & PricesTechnology & InnovationMarket Technicals & FlowsInvestor Sentiment & Positioning

The Canadian dollar fell to a 14-month low versus the U.S. dollar as weaker oil prices and a selloff in technology stocks lifted safe-haven demand for the greenback. The move reflects broad risk-off positioning rather than a Canada-specific policy shock. Market impact is modest but relevant for FX and commodity-linked assets.
