USD/CNH: Under mild downward pressure – UOB Group

Source Fxstreet

US Dollar (USD) is under mild downward pressure; it could edge lower to 7.2540. The major support at 7.2400 is unlikely to be tested. In the longer run, current price movements are likely part of range trading, probably between 7.2400 and 7.2900, UOB Group’s FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Lee Sue Ann note.

The major support at 7.2400 is unlikely to be tested

24-HOUR VIEW: “While we noted ‘a slight increase in momentum’ yesterday, we were of the view that ‘this is likely to lead to a higher trading range of 7.2650/7.2900 instead of a sustained rise.’ USD then rose to 7.2927 before dropping sharply 7.2575. This time around, there has been a slight increase in downward momentum. Today, USD is likely to edge lower to 7.2540. The major support at 7.2400 is unlikely to be tested. Resistance is at 7.2760; a breach of 7.2830 would indicate that the current mild downward pressure has eased.”

1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “There is not much to add to our update from last Friday (06 Dec, spot at 7.2660). As previously indicated, ‘the current price movements are likely part of range trading, probably between 7.2400 and 7.2900.’ Note that while USD rose to 7.2927 yesterday, it pulled back quickly to close lower at 7.2685.”

Tesla jumps 5% as Barclays puts a $450 target on the SpaceX merger — the chart was already pointing to 431Tesla closed at $391.62 on October 26, up 5.21%, after Barclays upgraded the stock to Overweight and lifted its target to $450 from $370, citing a sharp inflection in Robotaxi miles and a potential SpaceX merger. The move also completed a double bottom at $345.88 and $349.33, with a neckline at $388.56 and a measured target of $431.24. Here is what the upgrade actually says, why the chart and the analyst now point the same way, and what would break the target.

Anthropic files for a $2 trillion IPO — the $80.7 billion loss is the decoy, the $450 billion compute bill is the riskAnthropic publicly filed its S-1 on October 26, revealing $16.29 billion of first-half revenue (+1,304% year over year) and a $80.7 billion net loss — of which $72.4 billion is a non-cash convertible-note charge. The real number is the $450 billion of signed, mostly non-cancelable compute commitments. Here is what the filing says, why NVDA, ARM and MU are the tradeable read-through, and the conditions that decide whether the AI trade passes its first public valuation test.

Brent's $115 front month sits $4.6 above January — the $14 spread to WTI is the supply-risk premiumDecember Brent trades at $115.29 while January is $110.71, a $4.58 backwardation. The December Brent-WTI spread is $14.2, versus a $3-5 normal. That gap, not the headline, is where the Middle East supply risk is priced. Here is what the curve says, why the December contract's expiry on October 30 will mechanically cut the headline by $4.6, and the 108.81 neckline that decides the next move.
