The Dollar Index (DXY) consolidates near the top end of its three-week range (100.5 and 101.9), DBS FX strategist Philip Wee notes.

DXY is near the top of a three-week range

“DXY may consolidate following a two-day rebound near the top end of its three-week range (100.5 and 101.9).”

“The US Treasury 2Y yield rose by 2.3 bps to 3.67% after four consecutive sessions of declines. Overnight, the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite indices each gained 1.2%, stabilizing after their worst weekly sell-off this year.” 

“The futures market believes that the Fed needs to act more forcefully with a 50-bps cut at next week’s FOMC meeting to counter US recession fears tied to a cooling labour market.”
