Dollar set to break 5-week losing streak as Fed rate cut expectations diminish

The U.S. dollar is on track to snap a five-week losing streak, trading near a one-week high against major peers. This rebound comes as robust U.S. economic data has led traders to pare back their bets on aggressive Federal Reserve interest rate cuts. We go to the charts for guidance. The U.S. dollar is exhibiting renewed strength, as evidenced by the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), which remains steady following a rise. This marks the index’s highest level, suggesting a resurgence in dollar demand amid market uncertainties. If this trend continues, the dollar is poised to end the week with a solid gain, its best weekly performance. Read more to find out why dollar rebound.

Disclaimer:

The release of the core personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge could further influence the market, particularly the dollar’s performance. The cautious reduction in expectations for aggressive Fed rate cuts, coupled with a stronger-than-expected U.S. economy, suggests that the dollar may continue to find support in the near term. However, ongoing inflation data from Europe and the U.S. could introduce new volatility, particularly for the euro and yen, as markets adjust to evolving economic conditions. Risk management is advised to complement these releases closely for further indications of market trends.
