The Canadian dollar retreated from parity with its U.S. counterpart on Thursday as investors’ appetite for risk ebbed, commodities retreated and market players took profits on earlier strength in the currency.

The U.S. dollar was trading at C$1.0022 at 3:14 p.m. EDT (1914 GMT), from C$0.9997 at 8:00 a.m. EDT (1200 GMT), and from C$0.9991 late Wednesday.

Millan Mulraine (Economist) – “Slow employment growth in the U.S. will certainly mean slower demand for goods produced by Canada, and that will certainly put some dampening impact on the excitement investors have toward the Canadian dollar.”

After dipping to a low at C$0.9965 in overnight trading the U.S. dollar rebounded in the North American session, eventually reaching a session high at C$1.0027, according to EBS via CQG.
