The loonie has gained about 4 percent against the US dollar since a 10-month low at the end of 2016, helped by higher oil prices and a weaker greenback. Analysts warn that possible NAFTA talks, a weak recovery and a potentially dovish Bank of Canada could reverse the move.
A reversal in the loonie would raise USD/CAD and make Canadian-origin commodities and imports relatively more expensive for US buyers. The warning highlights two-way risk for currency-exposed feed costs.
