# Canadian dollar outperforms G10 peers as oil clings to recent gains | Financial Post

> The Canadian dollar strengthened against the U.S. dollar and other G10 currencies on Wednesday as oil held much of its recent rally. U.S. consumer prices rose 6.2% annually in October, the largest gain since 1990, and U.S. crude traded near $84 a barrel.

## Why it matters

Oil holding near $84 supports commodity-linked currencies and reflects tight supply. Persistent U.S. inflation keeps pressure on central banks to tighten, which affects the dollar.
