RTRS:U.S. dollar extends gains, hits 9-mth high vs Canada dollar
(Reuters) - The U.S. dollar hit a nine-month high versus its Canadian counterpart on Thursday and rallied versus the Swiss franc as concerns about a slowdown in the U.S. economy prompted investors to sell currencies in favour of the liquid U.S. currency.
The U.S. dollar rose to C$1.0157, its highest since December 2010, while climbing as high as 0.9063 Swiss franc , its strongest since mid-April. (Reporting by London Forex Team)
