TORONTO, Nov 27 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar strengthened against its U.S. counterpart on Monday even as U.S. oil prices pulled back from a two-year high, as the greenback broadly extended recent losses.
At 8:56 a.m. ET (1356 GMT), the Canadian dollar CAD=D4 was trading at C$1.2681 to the greenback, or 78.86 U.S. cents, its strongest level of the session and up 0.2 percent. It had gained 0.4 percent last week.
The currency's weakest level was C$1.2722.
The Bank of Canada is due to release its semi-annual Financial System Review on Tuesday, while currency strategists are also looking ahead to a monthly employment report and quarterly gross domestic product data due on Friday after weak retail sales numbers last week.
