The day after the Jackson Hole settlement, the US dollar as rebounded higher as markets has walked back some of the dovishness. The odds of a cut in September is rising to around 85% but was higher on Friday. The US yields are also rebounding a bit with the two-year up about 3 basis points the 10-year is up half that at 1.5 basis points.
In the video above, I take a look at the 3 major currency pairs from a technical perspective - the EURUSD, USDJPY and GBPUSD.
It is a holiday in the UK today. So economic activity was limited to the IFO business climate. It beat expectations:
Ifo Business Climate (Aug): 89.0 (BEAT; exp. 88.6, prior 88.6)
Current Conditions: 86.4 (MISS; exp. 86.7, prior 86.5)
Expectations: 91.6 (BEAT; exp. 90.3, prior 90.7; revised 90.8)
Market implications: The improvement in the expectations component points to resilience in manufacturing and a more upbeat Q3 outlook, helping offset weaker current conditions. EUR sentiment is slightly supported as the data shows stabilisation despite lingering trade uncertainty.
This week, the focus will be on Nvidia's earnings which will be reported on Wednesday after the close. Expectations are for $1.00 EPS on Revenues of $45.94BB. A year ago the EPS the minute $0.68 (+47% from year ago) with Revenues that $30.04B (+53% from year ago).
