Abstract

This paper finds that a higher real interest rate differential, a higher output ratio and a higher differential of the government deficit as a percent of GDP cause the Canadian dollar to depreciate whereas a higher stock price ratio, a higher productivity ratio, and a higher commodity price cause the Canadian dollar to appreciate. In comparison, the fundamental model performs better than the monetary models in both the in-sample and out-of-sample forecasts.
