USD Index: 103.30 could be the risk today if European PMIs surprises on the upside – ING

Source Fxstreet

The US Dollar Index has dipped below 104.00. Economists at ING analyze DXY’s outlook.

DXY to trade in tight/slightly softer ranges barring a big jump in US initial claims

For today, we note the slightly better investment environment propelled by stellar earnings from Nvidia. We note here as well that Japan and Korea have high-end chip industries too and suspect that the Yen and Won will be a lot stronger later this year.

Barring a a big jump in US initial claims today expect DXY to trade in tight/slightly softer ranges and the bigger impetus to come out of Europe today.

DXY is currently on support at 103.80 and were European PMIs to surprise on the upside, 103.30 could be the risk today.
