Canadian dollar plunged as BoC maintains its interest rate unchanged.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Canadian dollar, which is majorly traded by the global investors, plummeted after the Bank of Canada (BoC) decided to hold its cash rate unchanged at the current level. In yesterday BoC meeting, the board of members unanimously agreed to hold its interest rate at 4.50%, in line with the consensus forecast despite the Fed\u2019s cash rate has not seen any sign of pausing in anytime soon. After a series of rate hike since last year, the BoC has finally stop to hike its rate for the first time, citing the inflation figure is on the right pace of deceleration while heading toward their target of 2.0%. According to the Statistics Canada, the nation\u2019s CPI printed a reading of 5.9%, weaker than the prior month reading\u2019s 6.3%, while also far lower than the consensus forecast at 6.1%. With the backdrop of pausing rate hike, the market participants see an obvious policy\u2019s divergence between the US and Canada, reacting to it accordingly by rushing into the pair of USD\/CAD. As of writing, the pair of USD\/CAD rose 0.04% to 1.3810.<\/p>\n
