Four reasons why USD's current carry advantage is set to transition into a headwind – BofA

Economists at the Bank of America analyze the potential shift from the US Dollar's (USD) carry advantage to a significant headwind.
Challenging period ahead for the USD
The Fed is predicted to be one of the initial G10 central banks to reduce rates, challenging the USD's carry advantage.
Given the higher starting point of US rates, their potential reduction could significantly narrow the rate differentials with other currencies, diminishing the USD's attractiveness.
The USD stands as one of the most overvalued currencies in the G10, a factor that could amplify its vulnerability in a rate-cutting environment.
Lower interest rates in the US typically boost global risk appetite, a dynamic that historically benefits currencies other than the USD.
