US DOLLAR CONSOLIDATES GAINS AFTER FED SPEAKERS ASK FOR FURTHER DISINFLATION
- US Dollar pauses as investors dissect recent comments from Federal Reserve officials.
- Markets appear skeptical about the Fed's guidance and continue to anticipate potential cuts in September.
- Fed officials' cautious remarks limit downside in the US Dollar.
On Wednesday, the US Dollar as measured by the DXY Index (DXY) remained relatively unchanged around the 105.20 mark as investors parsed words from key Federal Reserve (Fed) officials on a quiet Wednesday. Following last week’s 0.50% gain, the index is tallying a three-day losing streak.
The US economic outlook is starting to show some signs of weakness. If data continues to fuel hopes of a September interest rate cut, the USD may struggle.
