Forex Today: US inflation is back

Source Fxstreet

The US Dollar (USD) maintained its bullish momentum well in place for yet another day, this time revisiting levels last seen in April 2025 amid steady speculation of further tightening by the Federal Reserve, with investors even mulling the idea of a half-point interest rate raise.

The US Dollar Index (DXY) has advanced past the 103.00 hurdle to hit new 18-month highs, helped by the generalised bearish tone in the risk complex and rising bets for another fed rate hike at the December gathering. The Producer Prices data will close the calendar along with speeches by the Fed’s Williams, Bowman, and Daly.

EUR/USD has further extended its downtrend, reaching new troughs around 1.1050 on the back of the persistent move higher in the US Dollar. The EMU’s Balance of Trade results are due, seconded by the advanced Q3 Employment Change and the second estimate of the Q3 GDP Growth Rate in the bloc. In addition, the ECB’s Elderson and Schnabel are due to speak.

GBP/USD has dropped to multi-week lows, navigating the area close to the 1.3200 contention zone. Next on tap across the Channel is the key labour market report, due for release on November 17.

USD/JPY has traded just pips away from the critical 160.00 barrier, underpinned by the solid momentum around the US Dollar. The next release of note in Japan will be the preliminary Q3 GDP Growth Rate, due on November 16, along with final Industrial Production figures and Capacity Utilisation readings.

AUD/USD has briefly pierced the 0.6800 support level for the first time since January, down for the third straight day amid extra upside traction in the Greenback. The RBA will publish its Minutes on November 17.

Front-month WTI futures (December contract) have traded in an inconclusive fashion between the $85.00 and $87.00 marks per barrel, always closely following developments (or the lack of them) from the Middle East conflict.

Gold has sold off to the vicinity of the $3,850 mark per troy ounce on Thursday, coming under continuous downside pressure following extra upside momentum in the US Dollar, and rising US Treasury yields, particularly in the short end and the belly of the curve.

Nvidia slid 7.7% after hours while AMD and Broadcom rose — the AI trade changed hands, it didn't break Nvidia closed Wednesday at 173.73, up 2.87%, then fell as much as 8.1% to 159.44 after reports that its board was preparing for a possible leadership change. The same session, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rose 5.7% with all 30 components higher, CoreWeave jumped 24.7% on 168% revenue growth, and Micron added 11.9%. If AI demand were being repriced, AMD and Broadcom would not be bid. This is a governance discount on one name, and 204.54 — the 200-day average — is the level that settles it.

Gold hit a one-year low while central banks bought 321 tonnes — the sellers were never the ones you think Spot gold closed at 3,876 on Thursday, down 2.8% and its lowest close in more than a year, with an intraday low near 3,852. The dollar is at a 19-month high of 103.21 and the 10-year yield is at 5.10%, so the price move is easy to explain. What is harder to explain is who sold: central banks bought 321 tonnes in Q3, the PBoC added for a 24th straight month, ETF holdings are near a record 4,256 tonnes, and roughly 95% of the futures selling came from non-reportable and sovereign-type accounts rather than hedge funds. This piece separates the two books that have to balance.

Brent rose 3.3% and US crude stocks built 4.66 million barrels in the same week Brent January settled at 95.82, up 3.3%, and WTI at 88.74, up 2.55%, after the US signalled it would not pursue a deal with Iran and attacks on Gulf shipping continued. In the same week, EIA data showed US crude inventories rising 4.657 million barrels against expectations of a 1.1 million draw, with gasoline up another 1.799 million. OPEC output also rebounded 1.96 million barrels a day to 27.16 million in October, led by Saudi Arabia at 10.56 million. This piece separates the geopolitical premium from the physical balance and lays out where each side of the trade is anchored.
