The mood shifted sharply on Friday as stocks looked set for another rout in the pre-market only to reverse higher. The FX market followed a similar pattern, though the moves were less-dramatic. That meant US dollar selling after the dollar hit some of the best levels of the year early in Asia.
On Wednesday, the Fed comments indicated a big shift towards worries about inflation but the PCE report brought a dose of reality back to the debate as the numbers were lower than expected and not at levels so worrisome that the Fed would need to contemplate hiking.
Some of the machinations around the debt ceiling debate also underscored a Trump/Musk recalibration around fiscal hawkishness. It's not yet clear how it will shake down so keep a close eye over the weekend. The real thing to watch is how the new administration prioritizes fiscal consolidation relative to corporate tax cuts. The vast majority of the market thinks the top priority is the stock market but that could be a miscalculation.
The euro bounced impressively after touching 1.0344 while the Australian and Canadian dollars rebounded from the worst levels of the year. The pound touched below the November lows in Asia the bounced to 1.2600 before fading 25 pips below the figure.
Have a great weekend.
