US election outcome remains a joker. Economists at Nordea analyze how the US Dollar (USD) could react to a Trump presidency.
A weaker USD could happen especially if sovereign debt concerns materialise
The outcome of the US presidential election could see the USD standing on a firmer footing than we have pencilled in.
If Trump is re-elected, his comeback will likely lead to more inflationary policies, a renewed trade war between the US and abroad with China in focus, heightened geopolitical risks and higher US government deficits.
For the USD, a Trump re-election will likely support the USD in the short term due to trade and geopolitical tensions, while a weaker USD than we have pencilled could happen especially if sovereign debt concerns materialise.

Brent slips to $111 as a two-day Hormuz plan lands — the supply-risk premium is the only thing being soldBrent fell 1.95% to $111.20 and WTI to $101.92 after Iran's foreign minister said a Qatar-brokered plan could reopen the Strait of Hormuz in two days.
