The Canadian dollar is not reacting significantly to the mixed data from the Canadian economy. The data is generally coming in weaker than expected, but on the other hand, the difference in the readings is not substantial enough to trigger any major moves in the currency market. Especially in the current global situation, where the markets' full attention is focused on tariffs and the escalation of the trade war.
