Loonie Taking Flight?

Since 2012, when the Canadian loonie reached parity with the U.S. dollar, the currency has taken a nose dive, dropping to a low of C$1.46 in early 2016. One benefit for Canada is that the cheap loonie created a trade advantage, helping that country's exports and benefiting the economy. With a better economy, whether the loonie will once again take flight is an important consideration for U.S. companies doing business in Canada. Strengthening of the loonie will increase the cost of goods imported to the U.S. from Canada, thereby reducing profits. These companies can lock in costs with forward contracts for commodities, or by hedging currency risk with futures, options, or swaps.
